Women in SF&F Month BannerComing Soon: Women in SF&F Month

After all the discussion recently about review coverage of women writing science fiction and fantasy and the female bloggers writing about these genres, I decided to dedicate the month of April to the women of science fiction and fantasy. Though I’m interested in the discussion overall, instead of talking about it more I’m choosing to make my contribution to addressing the issue by highlighting the women who are writing and reading SF&F.  Throughout the month I’ll have authors, book bloggers, […]

Dark of the Moon by Tracy BarrettCatching Up

So I am horribly behind on reviews. I read a few graphic novels last year that I’d planned to write about, and there’s still a couple of books from last year that I haven’t reviewed. I’m not ready to give up on those two books from last year, either, since I’ve reviewed previous books in the series for each and don’t want a gap with an unreviewed book. However, I am ready to give up on reviewing the rest of […]

Songs of the Earth by Elspeth CooperReview of Songs of the Earth by Elspeth Cooper

Songs of the Earth is a debut novel by Elspeth Cooper and the first book in the Wild Hunt trilogy. While it was released in the UK last year, it was only just released in the US the end of last month where it is available in hardcover and ebook. The next book, Trinity Moon, is scheduled for publication in the UK in July. The Dragon House will conclude the trilogy. It’s rather difficult to sum up the plot of […]

The Long Earth by Terry Pratchett and Stephen BaxterBooks of 2012: The Long Earth by Terry Pratchett and Stephen Baxter

Instead of writing one huge post of all the books I’m looking forward to in 2012 with info on them, I had decided to highlight some of these books in their own posts throughout the rest of 2011. I’ve decided to carry this feature forward into this year as I discover new books coming out this year that sound interesting and continue with books of 2013 as it gets closer to the end of the year. The Long Earth is […]

The Winds of Khalakovo by Bradley P. BeaulieuThe Leaning Pile of Books

Sorry that it’s been quiet this week. I’ve been working on a project for next month that took up most of my spare time this past week, but more about that will come later! This week I have two books that came in to tell you about. Actually, I’ve already talked about one of them before because it was one of my most anticipated books of 2012, so I’ll just point you to the post on Range of Ghosts by […]
