Discretion Universe: Steven's Sci-Fi Collection

Michael BN

Written by Steven Afon, the main character of “The Desert Within,” these stories weave sci-fi tropes into romance with LGBTQ+ protagonists.

Three tales. Three men with everything to lose. Written by Steven Afon—the not-so-reliable narrator of The Desert Within—this collection spins sci-fi tropes into heart-twisting relationship dramas. In Alternate Truth, Mason hides a dangerous secret from his boss, Elliott… and from himself. In The Ticket, a dying old man wrestles with the memory of a love that slipped through his fingers. And in Construct, a man risks it all for the one he can’t let go, even when the outcome is uncertain. Past, future, now—each story asks the same question: How far will you go for the person who matters most?
