Dystopian

Review: Wild Flowers, Electric Beasts by Alina Leonova

August 5, 2024 by C. J. Daley (CJDsCurrentRead) Leave a Comment

Review: Service Model by Adrian Tchaikovsky

June 25, 2024 by Paige Leave a Comment

Service Model by Adrin Tchaikovsky

Adrian Tchaikovsky can do no wrong. Service Model is an utter triumph of fun sci-fi with an added edge of things being a liiiiittle too close to home. Told entirely from the perspective of Charles, a personal valet robot who embarks on quite the journey.

Charles at the start of the book is a very unintentionally humorous robot, and his observations of the world around him are so very naive. I really enjoyed the first quarter of the book where he’s interacting with other robots who are following their routines, and the lack of human interaction is messing with their systems. A particular favourite was the detective and doctor robots, it was for me the first realisation of just how funny this book can be.

Synopsis In the future, memory is currency. Felix is broke, on the run, with nothing in his head but a combination of numbers. Someone robbed him of his mind. Now it’s time he took it back. ★★★★★ “Armitage deftly executes the fresh concept of memory as currency. REMEMORY is part cyberpunk, part thriller, and a […]

Mushroom Blues by Adrian M. Gibson

I knew I’d love this book. From the very first page Adrian had me hooked and I carved out reading time so I had to put Mushroom Blues down as little as possible. I was utterly enthralled.

Review: Saint Elspeth by Wick Welker

March 19, 2024 by Frasier Armitage Leave a Comment

Synopsis Why did they come? When they appeared across the sky, speculation wheeled around the world—the aliens were from heaven, the invaders were from hell… or they were proof that neither existed.
