Except that the version on Amazon – despite my best efforts – is not the final version I uploaded. So please wait for 24-72 hours until I have been told that… Continue reading Publishing my first book

Review: Nanoshock (SINless 2)
My review @ Goodreads Nanoshockby K.C. Alexander Genre: Cyberpunk So here’s the first sentence of the book. You haven’t lived until you’ve fisted a nun under the cheap light of a neon Jesus. If you think you can take a book that follows that sentence, go ahead and try. I apparently couldn’t and it would… Continue reading Review: Nanoshock (SINless 2)

Review: Necrotech (SINless 1)
My review @ Goodreads Necrotech by K.C. Alexander Genre: Cyberpunk I was searching for female-written female SciFi protagonists when I stumbled across this gem. Even better: this qualifies as Cyberpunk with the emphasis on Punk, very much in the “the street finds its own use for things” kind of way.

Review: The Stone Sky (Broken Earth 3)
My Review @ Goodreads The Stone Sky is the third installment in the Broken Earth Trilogy by N.K. Jemisin. Genre: Post-apocalyptic Epic Fantasy I find it terribly difficult to write reviews for this series. Because I read the books and they impress me so much that I can’t write the review immediately. And then a… Continue reading Review: The Stone Sky (Broken Earth 3)
