The Union Man and other stories brings you three stories from Eamonn Murphy.

Happy is a drug that has been legalized in England, but no one can expect the consequences of what that legalization will mean, except for one man, and no one want to listen to him, because everyone wants to be Happy.

Federation and Empire is a series of short stories that chart the future history of mankind following the gift of the FTL drive from an alien species.

They're all involved in the diaspora of humanity to the stars. Here are tales of colonisation and crime, of slavery and revolution. Good old-fashioned science fiction!
