Review: Eversion by Alastair Reynolds
Alastair Reynolds is a sci-fi author who is typically at the top of the genre lists when looking at the best of modern sci-fi. I read his first book in the Revelation Space universe and found it enjoyable but was not particularly compelled to keep reading. I’ve been wanting to give his work another shot (that was his first published novel after all) and when I saw Eversion was a shorter standalone novel, I had the perfect opportunity.
Book Tour Review: Whispers of Stone (The Last Gift #2) by Allegra Pescatore
Whispers of Stone fulfilled every requirement for a sequel. The world was widened, the stakes were dramatically raised, and the character development kept advancing.
Review: Dusk (The Navigator #2) by Matthew Samuels
When author Matthew Samuels asked me if I wanted to read and review Dusk, I jumped at the opportunity. I had read and reviewed Parasites – the first book in The Navigators series – a couple of years ago, and I really enjoyed it. I thought the story was light and fun with interesting characters and settings. And, mostly, I liked Dusk for the exact same reasons.

Review: Sons of Darkness (The Raag of Rta, #1) by Gourav Mohanty
Sons of darkness smashes open the fountain of originality, spilling insidious plot, incredible characters, and grim violence. I loved this book. Described as the Indian ASoIaF, it has feuding families, politics, war, and deceit in equal measures, but tops this with inspired world-building and a plot that starts as embers and ends as a blazing inferno.
Like This Game? Read This Book: 11 Book Recommendations for Gamers by M.J. Kuhn
“Gamers don’t read.” I can’t even tell you how many times I’ve heard this stereotype, but as a person who hangs out at the intersection of video games and books (especially on my TikTok channel), I can tell you that’s the furthest thing from the truth. Gamers and readers have a ridiculous amount in common—so […]
Review: Shards of Earth (The Final Architects Trilogy #1) by Adrian Tchaikovsky
I’m a big Adrian Tchaikovsky fan. Children of Time is a modern classic and stands as my favorite sci-fi novel of all time while Cage of Souls is a vastly underrated and incredible novel. Tchaikovsky’s works are always incredibly innovative and creative. From Elder Race (a fun novella which mixes fantasy and sci-fi) to his Shadows of the Apt series (a fantasy book with insect type races which I need to read more of) there’s always some interesting worldbuilding and fascinating ideas going on – and Shards of the Earth is no exception.
Review: The Stardust Thief (The Sandsea Trilogy #1) by Chelsea Abdullah
The Stardust Thief is author Chelsea Abdullah’s debut novel and the first in the author’s series The Sandsea Trilogy. There are so many aspects of the book that make it a great read, but in the end it comes down to phenomenal storytelling for me.

Review: The Kaiju Preservation Society by John Scalzi
The Kaiju Preservation Society is the latest release from famed SFF author John Scalzi. It is a story about a group of people tasked with preserving kaiju, which are interdimensional, giant flying creatures (I picture a cross between a dragon and a dinosaur). I got Avatar-meets-Jurassic Park vibes from this book. It was an enjoyable read.
