Reviews

The Pullbox – ‘It was Gene Rodenberry’s belief that good science fiction had to come from simple beginnings. Start with a good story, about people and their lives, and build the incredible out from there. At its core, this is what Plexus is. A sci fi anthology telling small, individual stories about people with relatable problems.’ – http://www.thepullbox.com/2019/08/thepullbox-reviews-plexus/
