Review: “In the Courts of the Crimson Kings” by S.M. Stirling

Review: “In the Courts of the Crimson Kings” by S.M. Stirling

Brian Brown | March 14, 2008June 4, 2024

S.M. Stirling writes a whiz bang up alternative universe story. I really enjoyed how this book was so very different from the first but yet was JUST as compelling. The characters are interesting and he has no qualm about killing off someone you thought was a main character. The technology being living creatures, grown for very specific purposes was a nice, creepy touch.

Review: William Shakespeare’s “Star Wars” (Audiobook)

Review: William Shakespeare’s “Star Wars” (Audiobook)

Stephen Carpenter | November 6, 2013May 30, 2024

Seeming like a gag gift to get for people like me — where you know that we like Star Wars but you’re not sure what exactly we already possess in our collection — William Shakespeare’s Star Wars is an audiobook full of surprising quality and intelligence that should delight any fan of The Bard or of the Beard of George Lucas.

Review: “Peace & Memory” by Mark W. Tiedemann

Review: “Peace & Memory” by Mark W. Tiedemann

Joe Murphy | July 21, 2003June 30, 2024

What does Mark W. Tiedemann’s Peace and Memory offer? It has an interesting, well thought out universe, a bizarre and entertaining ensemble of characters, thought provoking dialogue on social and political issues, action, adventure, twists, turns, irony, and a hair raising finale.

Which is why, for the life of me, I can’t understand why I didn’t like it more.

Review: “The Tattooed Wolf” by K. Bannerman

Review: “The Tattooed Wolf” by K. Bannerman

Joe Murphy | October 5, 2004June 28, 2024

If you like short, satisfying reads between your “Harry Potter” or “A Song of Ice and Fire” ten pound seat-raisers, then buy the tree-killer or planet-friendly version of this book.

Review: “Earthcore” by Scott Sigler

Review: “Earthcore” by Scott Sigler

E Terra | November 17, 2005June 2, 2024 | 2 Comments

I’m not even really sure where to begin with this review. I, along with 6,000 of Sigler’s closest friends, let Scott Sigler pull me around like fish on on an angler’s line for 20 some-odd weeks as he released this fast-paced, bloody mosh-pit of a book in audio form, one chapter at a time.

So yeah, I wanted to kill him on a weekly basis. But back to the story.

Review: “Darth Bane: Path of Destruction: A Novel of the Old Republic”

Review: “Darth Bane: Path of Destruction: A Novel of the Old Republic”

Tim Adamec | December 21, 2006August 10, 2024

I’m a sucker for Star Wars books. After reading Timothy Zahn’s Thrawn Trilogy (Heir to the Empire, Dark Force Rising, and The Last Command) captured the frenetic, everything-is-happening-at-the-same-time pacing of the original Star Wars trilogy and provided an engaging story to boot, I bought any post-Return of the Jedi book I could get my hands on.

Review: “The Book of Daniel” by Lynn Terelle

Review: “The Book of Daniel” by Lynn Terelle

Joe Murphy | July 29, 2003June 21, 2024

Imagine an entire world populated only by men. The oldest have only recollections of their wives and mothers. The youngest have never even seen a woman except in old movies and photographs. Who would hold all the cards in a world like this? The one who could bring the women back.

Review: “Nexus” by Ramez Naam

Review: “Nexus” by Ramez Naam

Laith Preston | January 30, 2013May 31, 2024 | 1 Comment

Nexus is a thriller for the post-human age, Ramez Naam does a phenomenal job of taking modern cutting edge science and building a realistic world of the near future. In Nexus, Naam asks the question, “what if?”.
