Default The day Indy died.

I know that there a copy of the short story in someone's fanzine back in the 90s. I have always wanted to the STORY and no idea where to find a copy of the story. Anyone got a link or the name of a book with it in there.

This is the only reference I could find which didn't involve a _Portland_-class cruiser and a bunch of Large Ill-Tempered Fish.

The Year the Indy Died, a novelette by P.M. Fergusson, was first printed in Analog Science Fiction/Science Fact in December 1986. The story was reprinted in two issues of Driving Tigers Magazine (DTM), the Car Wars fiction magazine edited by Christopher J. Burke.

The front cover of the Analog Science Fiction/Science Fact December 1986 issue has a blue spacecraft and white text "ROBERT R. CHASE Bearings." This information might help when looking for a copy in used bookstores.

I ordered a copy off of Ebay, I should have it soon. The fiction was one of my favorite parts of the game. I'll let you know if I enjoy it.
