Description
A cosmonaut awakens in a drifting spacecraft that he cannot remember how to operate. He could be forgiven for his nervous ineptitude on this day, what with that brain surgery, and his having broken the cosmic speed limit, and having killed his dream date, and having attained his dream job, all on the same day a comet was scheduled to extinguish life on Earth.Gardening by Starlight is a prologue to a larger work-in-progress. If the latter never sees the light of stars, then at least this short story will, perhaps, amuse readers.
