Review: Sea of Tranquility by Emily St. John Mandel

Review: City of Last Chances by Adrian Tchaikovsky
The City of Last Chances, was carved out of granite by an industrial literary automaton. Everything has been precisely placed to full effect. Its demon-powered factories belch black infernal smoke to power the prose as burn you through the pages.
Review: Yestermorrow by Frasier Armitage
The concept of being able to rewrite our lives to cut out the bad decisions is played out really nicely here, while staying true to the “get in, there’s no time to explain” style of sci-fi that Armitage does so well.
Review: City of Last Chances by Adrian Tchaikovsky
Tchaikovsky’s City of Last Chances weaves complex family structures, pantheons, and warring factions into a gloomy, occupied city-scape – Ilmar has long been without hope, long been a city of divided beliefs and downright debauchery and crime, now occupied by the perfectionist Pals. This work wore its inspirations on its sleeves, heavily reminiscent of the Black Iron Legacy and The Last War. Immediately, I was transported back to Jia and Guerdon in these pages, but it was only a passing whiff of their scents because Ilmar itself was a blend of something in itself.
Review: Weird Fishes by Rae Mariz
I read this incredible novella in just two sittings, I completely fell in love with Ceph and Iliokai, and I found it hard to look away from their journey. Mariz packs so much into such a small number of pages, and I think the story is completely the perfect length.
Review: The Monsters We Feed by Thomas Howard Riley

Review: A Fractured Infinity by Nathan Tavares
The big question at the heart of the book is ‘how far would you go for love’. It’s this epic multiverse-spanning sci-fi tale with a love story at its very heart. We might have machines that span infinite universes, alternate selves and some crazy science, but really the focus is on Hayes and what he’ll do to save the love of his life.
