Thrilling books and gripping stories, all in one place.
I've just had the most saddest news! After nearly four years in print, my short story They Came From Nowhere will be taken off the shelves at the end of February, 2025. They Came From Nowhere was first published back in 2021, in an anthology titled CONTACT, released by Black Hare Press. CONTACT was part... Continue Reading →
I sold two books within three days of each other - and had the best week ever!
What a magnificent science fiction adventure! The first thing that struck me about this book and this story is how incredibly detailed and nuanced the world-building is. I loved it from the start, and it immediately pulled me in. The story is as follows: We're introduced to a kid named Leon, who's trying to win... Continue Reading →
It finally happened - I'm finally in on the whole Hunger Games thing... and I'm not sure what to think. Somehow, I never managed to get caught up in the Hunger Games the first time around.

I read Skyward first and I recently finished the first installment in the Mistborn series. Both great fantasy/science fiction books that I'd recommend to any... Continue Reading →
One of the fathers of modern science fiction - and a definite must-read! When I started this I was worried I would find it much the same way I found Dune - boring and overlong - but this was the complete opposite. Every part of this novel made me want to keep on reading, keep... Continue Reading →
I've got a new favorite type of science fiction, and it's whatever Andy Weir writes! I never read the Martian. I never read a lot of things, but I never read the Martian either. I saw the movie though, and I liked it enough to remember Andy Weir's name when I saw Project Hail Mary... Continue Reading →
Science fiction that lives up to everything everyone says and more so!
