This single melody connects lives that are separated by centuries.  An exiled Englishman, a writer trapped far from home, and […]

Review: Duckett & Dyer: Dicks for Hire (Duckett & Dyer #1) by G.M. Nair

August 7, 2022 by Paige Leave a Comment

the cover for Duckett and Dyer which is illustrated in shades of blue with people, a gun and a grappling hook on it.

Duckett & Dyer is a SPSFC Finalist for the 2021-22 batch! I read it as part of the judging process.

I’ll admit right off the bat that I don’t tend to pick up comedies, so I wasn’t sure how I would get on with this one. But, thanks to the SPSFC, I gave it a go and found that actually I quite enjoyed it! Nair knows how to write comedy and kept throwing unexpected surprises at me through every turn.

July 20, 2022 by Frasier Armitage Leave a Comment

Synopsis In the first-ever novel about a cyborg, a machine-enhanced man from a multiverse of the far future visits 1920s England. Overshadowed in its own time by Karel Čapek’s sensational 1923 play R.U.R., about a robot uprising, The Clockwork Man is overdue for rediscovery. Review The Clockwork Man is a book that was way ahead of its time. […]

Review: Under Fortunate Stars by Ren Hutchings

May 25, 2022 by Tom Bookbeard Leave a Comment

It’s a sit down and savor sci-fi that reads like one of the Star Trek episodes where they get stuck in some temporal anomaly and spend the entire time doing sciencey stuffs until they get free at the last minute.
