Press Any Key To Destroy The Galaxy

Iain M. Banks' Culture meets Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy in this funny romp through the cosmos.

An immovable object stands in the way of the Galactic Emperor Jarrl. He has waged siege against his arch-nemesis for a thousand years, but the barrier still stands. Now, he has come up with a plan to put the immovable object's name to the test, and lay waste to his enemies. Will his plan work? Will he manage to obliterate his foes? Will he press the big red button to destroy a galaxy?

Press Any Key is a series of short stories.

Death. Destruction. At the touch of a button. These zany disaster stories all share a common thread: Someone pushed the damn button. In honor of Stanislav Petrov, the man who didn't press the nuclear counterstrike button in 1983 and that's why we're all still here.
