The stories are in alphabetical order – but the first story is the story that gave its name to the special. Stories marked with are written for this challenge, or from the archives and newly published here on PZA. The other stories are already longer on PZA.

• Boys in Space, by Hamilton Joyce (science-fiction story)
  Anything can be bought in Space Port on the planet Mina. Clubs cater for every sexual taste, but the Unique Selling Proposition of the Spapo tourist industry is its boys! And across the sprawling city nine out of ten clubs were manned (if that is the right word!) by teenage or pre-teen boys. This is the story of how I came to Mina and how I eventually came to enjoy life there.
  This story gave its name to the special!

• Adrift in Space, by Just Another Grimm (science-fiction story)
  Spoof of the 1960's tv sci fi classic. The cast members are replaced by the boys from my Fab 5, but if you've neither seen the show or my other stories it still should work.
