Short Review Roundup – Old School Edition
I don’t pull out my old books for another reread as much as I used to, but I pulled out a couple of my favorite series from when I was a kid recently, spurred by rereads on Tor.com. The … Continue reading
Throwback SF Thursday: 1984 by George Orwell, Part 2
Welcome back for the belated Part 2 of my discussion of 1984 by George Orwell. You can find Part 1 here. In Part 1 I focused on 1984’s surveillance state and its prescient critique of the Stalinist Soviet Union. Today … Continue reading

Top Ten Tuesday – New-to-Me Favorite Authors of 2016
Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by The Broke and the Bookish. I rarely participate. (In theory, I should be posting release-day reviews on Tuesday. In theory.) But I loved the Top Ten New-To-Me Favorite Authors of 2015 topic last year … Continue reading
Review of The Plague of Swords by Miles Cameron
It was the false dawn; the time when old people die, when hopes fail, and when ambuscades lose their nerve, when men call out and wives comfort them. Cameron is telling one hell of a story. The Plague of Swords … Continue reading
