Publisher's summary
곽재식은 누구보다도 재미난 이야기 소재들을 사랑하는 작가입니다. 비단 SF뿐만 아니라 동서양의 판타지와 전설 등, 현실 밖의 꿈과 상상과 환상 속에 담긴 이야기들을 찾고 수집하죠. 다루는 소재를 고려하면, 곽재식은 확실히 '장르 소설가'에 속합니다. 전형적이라고 할 수도 있겠죠. 하지만 이 작가는 특별합니다. 현재 장르 소설계에서 이렇게 웃긴 작가는 존재하지 않습니다. 특히 이공계를 졸업하고 사회에 진출한 사람들이 겪는 부조리한 사회생활에 관한 블랙 코미디는 타의 추종을 불허합니다. 그 기반은 '리얼리티'죠. 대사 하나하나가 진짜 리얼합니다. 코믹 SF의 예로 코니 윌리스를 들어보면, 코니 윌리스는 극의 희극성을 끌어올리기 위해 일부러 비현실적인 캐릭터를 등장시킵니다. 단점은 아니고 전략적인 방향 설정이죠. 대체로 현실은 그만큼 재미가 있지는 않으니까요. 그런데 곽재식이 쓰는 설정이나 대사는 너무 리얼합니다. 말도 안 되는 소리들을 하고 있는데, 그게 너무 리얼합니다. 사회에서 갑을관계를 겪어 봤거나, 특히 공무원들과 대화를 해 본 분들이라면 이 소설에 나오는 처음 보는 캐릭터들의 대사를 읽을 때 육성이 들려올 겁니다. 그 어처구니없는 면이, 그래서, 웃깁니다. 어처구니가 없으니까요. 와, 이거 진짜잖아.
곽재식 최고의 전문 분야이자…, 그렇습니다. 정부 산하 기관의 이공계 연구원으로 살아간다는 것은 무엇인가? 사회생활이란 얼마나 기묘하고 어려운 일인가? 그런데 왜 이게 지구 멸망을 앞당기고 있는가?
작가의 말:
소행성 충돌에 대한 짧은 특집 소설을 써 달라는 잡지 《과학동아》의 의뢰를 받아 쓴 소설이다. 갑작스레 뭘 써야 할지 쓸 것이 생각나지 않아 의 속편으로 썼는데, 전편의 주인공이었던 김 박사가 직장을 옮겨 공공기관 쪽 연구소에서 일하는 모습으로 다시 등장한다. 잡지에 실리면서 삽화도 같이 실렸기 때문에, 김 박사와 그 동료들의 모습을 그림으로도 볼 수 있게 되어 더 재미있었다.

Story
Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission - and if he fails, humanity and the Earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn't know that. He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he's been asleep for a very, very long time. And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company.

Story
Inheriting your uncle's supervillain business is more complicated than you might think. Particularly when you discover who's running the place. Charlie's life is going nowhere fast. A divorced substitute teacher living with his cat in a house his siblings want to sell, all he wants is to open a pub downtown, if only the bank will approve his loan. Then his long-lost uncle Jake dies and leaves his supervillain business (complete with island volcano lair) to Charlie. But becoming a supervillain isn't all giant laser death rays and lava pits.

Story
Six days ago, astronaut Mark Watney became one of the first people to walk on Mars. Now, he's sure he'll be the first person to die there. After a dust storm nearly kills him and forces his crew to evacuate while thinking him dead, Mark finds himself stranded and completely alone with no way to even signal Earth that he’s alive - and even if he could get word out, his supplies would be gone long before a rescue could arrive. But Mark isn't ready to give up yet.

Story
Ashley Perrin is fresh out of college and starting a job as a community liaison for the Third District–the city’s only sector with more alien residents than humans. Ashley’s barely found where the paper clips are kept when she’s beset with constituent complaints–from too much noise at the Annual Lupidian Celebration Parade to a trip-and-fall chicken to a very particular type of alien hornet that threatens the very city itself. And if that’s not terrifying enough, Ashley is next up at the office karaoke night.

Story
In the not-too-distant future, a 21-member crew launches from Earth. Their mission: to establish a temporary colony on Mars. Little do they know that colony will become permanent–and the last stand of the human race. Because, without warning, every single person left on Earth simply...vanishes. Now, a thousand years later, the resources needed to sustain life are running out, and the very existence of the Mars colony is threatened. Humankind has only one option–to return to its home planet.
