The nitty-gritty: A weird and wonderful trip to the stars and planets, a perplexing and unsettling mystery, and a rather frustrating—but ultimately rewarding—reading experience. Pluto and Charon in a verdant jungle embrace: between them grew vines as thick and long and mighty as the Mississippi river, great lily-lime leaves opening, curling toward the distant star […]
I’m thrilled to be part of Tor Books’ blog tour for Made to Kill, a highly original and laugh-out-loud funny story about the glitz (and the seedy underbelly) of Hollywood, as seen through the eyes of a detective/hit man robot named Ray Electromatic.

The nitty-gritty: An intense and fast-paced story, with several mysteries that aren’t revealed until the end, but with an unexpected turn of events that I found disorienting.

The nitty-gritty: Full of the same surreal and desolate atmosphere that I loved in The Mad Scientist’s Daughter, Clarke brings us an irresistible story full of dangerous and desperate characters, in one of the most unique settings I’ve seen in some time. The doors screeched open and Eliana stepped out onto the abandoned platform. She […]
Waiting on Wednesday is hosted by Breaking the Spine, and is a fun way to showcase upcoming books we’re excited about with other bloggers and readers. I loved the first book in this series, Time Salvager, and I was super excited that the cover of book two was just revealed this week! Having been haunted […]
The nitty-gritty: A high-octane, high-tech romp through time and space, with lots of family drama and complex characters to root for. Simply put, Supersymmetry was Superfun! Well, I did it again.

The nitty-gritty: A rip-roaring adventure through time with an awesome premise and complex characters. A fantastic start to a new Wesley Chu trilogy! I absolutely adored Chu’s Tao series (well, me and every other SFF fan on the planet!) and so I was curious to see what else he had up his sleeves. And I’m […]
The nitty-gritty: A fast paced, frenetic story of alien invasion written as only Ernest Cline can write it, with plenty of video game action for gamers and sci-fi movie references for everyone else. As we ascended, my internal monologue went something like this: That isn’t some guy cosplaying at SobruCon IV, Zack. To me, he […]
