Book View Cafe announces winners in its fifth Twitter Fiction contest!

(C.L. Anderson's Enigma - Theme:  Spies in Space)

Due to a high number of excellent entries, we have a lot of honorable mentions this time.  Well done, folks!

 Honorable mentions:  

Bob_Lock: @bookviewcafe Scene: 2 marooned spacemen hanging in deep space. 'I spy with my little eye, something beginning with S...'

heidi2524: @bookviewcafe Surveillance is the most boring aspect of being a spy. Fortunately with T'kana as my new partner, we had 6 eyes on the target. 

MothinDarkness: @bookviewcafe 27-5 eyed the box. Last run-last danger-before life, real, ordinary life. He opened it, heard the bio-grenade click, & smiled.

arkem: @bookviewcafe Bribe the ship, he said. Everybody wants something, he said. Nice plan, but what's an elephant? Is the ship messing with me?

arkem: @bookviewcafe Where's my tuxedo? Where's my ray gun? So much for a life of adventure. It's yet another day on the datastream for me. *sigh*

scribe77: @bookviewcafe 5-DDX lay in pieces, destroyed by the Special Alien Forces. He had been caught spying, another casualty of bad programming.

MothinDarkness: @bookviewcafe He kneeled over the double agent. His probiscus unfurled, pierced the Venusian's chest. He drank. Karma, shaken, not stirred.

Tsigtsag: @bookviewcafe Rebel faction attacking. Emperor in danger. Send he---ERROR: CONNECTION LOST---

Bob_Lock: @bookviewcafe 'Who's that guy leaving Cryogenics?' Asked the captain. 'That's the spy who came in from the cold...' Answered John le Carré

MothinDarkness: @bookviewcafe You got me, Aventrix. Unfortunately for you, after that year in a Vegan mining camp, I'm fluent in Archillian. Get him boys!

heidi2524: @bookviewcafe In my cabin post-holodance. Find out the mark has 9 appendages; 4 are arms, 2 are legs. Bet Mata Hari never had this problem.

Runner-up:

ralanc: @bookviewcafe Bitter cold, vacant eyes. Suit oozes final air. Stars tumble. Her fist gelid around a precious document & a small gold heart.

  Winners (each wins an autographed copy of Bitter Angels
by C.L. Anderson):

DoryCrowe: @bookviewcafe In from the cold of outer space, Mata slips her data disk to Hari. Seldom has foundation received such a bond.

cornellbox: @bookviewcafe Sputnik watches from overhead. Realizes she's been left alone with no way home. So she sends messages to other side in code. 

  Winners, please email your mailing address to . 

Thank you to all the entrants!  Once again, we had a bunch of truly fantastic entries.
