THE TRAITOR GOD – Cameron Johnston

In a book store full of fantasies in which a lovable rogue, who’s an unwilling hero, battles against a powerful wizard/mage/god, Cameron Johnston’s The Traitor God comes out just slightly above average. Edrin Walker has spent the last decade on the run. He’s been avoiding debt as well as some of the people he’s pissed Continue reading

FLOODGATE – Johnny Shaw

In what is probably the worst city in America, given the amount of crime and corruption, Auction City is at a cross-roads of sorts. Police officer Andy Destra has uncovered solid evidence that there is corruption at the highest levels of the police department. Destra, who tries to be a good, decent cop in this Continue reading

THE WILD DEAD – Carrie Vaughn

It was about a year and a half ago when I read Carrie Vaughn’s Bannerless and was really taken by surprise in a good way. I knew nothing about the book and was only familiar with Vaughn’s name as someone I hadn’t yet read. This time I went in to the book with some idea Continue reading

LAST SONG SUNG – David A. Poulsen

It’s always a gamble to pick up a book in mid-series these days. Sometimes a story relies on the reader’s prior knowledge of previous books and sometimes you can jump right in and get everything you need through the course of the story. David A. Poulsen’s mystery, Last Song Sung, falls somewhere in between. Freelance Continue reading

STARSHIP ALCHEMON – Christopher Hinz

Every once in awhile I come across a book that I feel is well written and with an interesting set of characters in an interesting story, and yet it doesn’t click with me. This is one of those books. Given the number of books I read in a year, and with many of them being Continue reading

NUKING THE MOON – Vince Houghton

Who doesn’t like reading about secret government plots and massively ridiculous ideas that were once seriously considered? Well, if you don’t, then just move on as this clearly isn’t for you. But if the idea of reading about stupid, top-secret government plans puts an evil grin on your face, then consider this! Whether it’s the Continue reading

FURY FROM THE TOMB – S.A. Sidor

Romulus Hardy is an academic Egyptologist and now, in 1888, he has made a discovery that could shock the world and give him some great academic recognition. He has found a tomb in Egypt with five undisturbed coffins and a very large sarcophagus. Retrieving these, however, seems dangerous as all on the expedition but Romulus Continue reading

THE FIFTY-YEAR MISSION – Edward Gross & Mark A. Altman

STAR TREK WEEK Edward Gross and Mark Altman’s The Fifty-Year Mission is a really great look at the history of Star Trek, but not just as one person’s research or recollection, but from the memories and thoughts of hundreds of people who had a part in Star Trek (or were heavily influenced by Star Trek). Continue reading

STAR TREK: GOLD KEY ARCHIVES: VOL. 4 – graphic novel

STAR TREK WEEK Featuring issue numbers 19-24 we continue to look at the Gold Key Star Trek comics collection. The stories have gotten better – to the point where some of these stories could have been filmed episodes (and some of them feel like rip-offs of episodes). The art is still stunning, but often very Continue reading

STAR TREK: GOLD KEY ARCHIVES: VOLUME 3 – graphic novel

STAR TREK WEEK Star Trek. Comics. An absolute winner, right? Well… Gold Key Comics made the early gamble and purchased the rights to publish a comic book series based on the then new television program, Star Trek. The artists and writers during the first year of publication had actually never seen an episode of the Continue reading
