Walking to Eternity
Walking in Eternity was edited by Jay Eales, who had previously co-edited Perfect Timing 2. Eales intentionally sought wild submissions with the goal of differentiating the anthology from Missing Pieces, saying, "If Missing Pieces is about building a big brick wall of continuity, with its stories as the grouting, to make the best damn wall you can have, WinE is about taking that beautiful big continuity wall, and setting dynamite at the base, blowing it up and then building something new and equally lovely out of the bits."[1] A similar theme had been pursued by many of the same contributors in the fully licensed 2000 Short Trips anthology Short Trips and Side Steps.
Eales later edited Obverse's 2013 Faction Paradox anthology Burning with Optimism's Flames, which saw the return of several authors from Walking in Eternity, including Sarah Hadley and Alan Taylor as well as returning Faction Paradox contributors Kelly Hale, Simon Bucher-Jones, Philip Purser-Hallard, and Jonathan Dennis.
Publisher's summary
