RUBICONS – Brett Riley
The “Freaks” of Quapaw City, Arkansas are high school juniors now and maybe being adults is scarier than facing monsters from other dimensions. … Nope, the monsters are still scarier. But other adults … such as the clandestine government group known as “The Team” … are, if not scary, a definite threat to the teens… Continue reading

TARZAN: THE SAVAGE LANDS – Andy Briggs
Tarzan is probably one of the best known figures to emerge from the pulps of the early 1900’s. This is partly due to the films (the first, a silent Tarzan film in 1918), which brought the jungle hero to audiences that would never read a pulp magazine, and partly due to the unique aspects of… Continue reading

THE MANUSCRIPTS CLUB – Christopher de Hamel
There was a time when I considered myself more than just an avid reader, but a collector of books. Had I the resources, I have no doubt that I would have collected manuscripts if I’d had the resources (ie money) and so this title really grabbed my attention. I have to admit, though, that I… Continue reading

THE DISPATCHER: TRAVEL BY BULLET – John Scalzi
John Scalzi’s Dispatcher series is a fun, fast-paced, pulp-style scifi adventure series.

A HUNTER CALLED NIGHT – Tim Waggoner
It was nearly ten years ago when I first read a Tim Waggoner novel (Night Terrors) and I was impressed enough with the outrageousness and originality that I’ve been seeking Waggoner’s books ever since. He has really become a major force in the horror fiction world. In A Hunter Called Night, a man known as Arron… Continue reading

RICH WATERS – Robert Bailey
Attorney Jason Rich recently won a large court case, his first, really, despite being a lawyer for many years. He’s made his money as an ‘ambulance-chasing’ accident attorney. His “In an accident? Get Rich!” billboards dot the landscape around his hometown of Guntersville, Alabama. But winning a major case doesn’t mean that his life is back… Continue reading

Nehal is a waterweaver. She can manipulate water in just about any manner she sees fit. But Nehal has had no training on how to (safely) use her ability.

STARTER VILLAIN – John Scalzi
Despite the fact that I really like cats (I’ve had cats living with me for about half a century) and I really like science fiction – with John Scalzi being one of my favorite, working writers – I am always leery about picking up a book with cats as a leading or major character. I… Continue reading
