Review: The Fall Is All There Is (Four of Mercies #1) by C.M. Caplan

March 9, 2023 by Craig Bookwyrm Leave a Comment

This book is fresh, inventive, quirky, instinctive, and witty. Set in a genre-bending world – think dystopian sci-fi, steampunk, weird west, with shades of grimdark political court intrigue – filled with some of the most unique and downright strange ideas I’ve read. Truly creative.

Review: World Running Down by Al Hess

February 26, 2023 by Justin Gross Leave a Comment

World Running Down is a post-apocalyptic meet cute that doesn’t shy away from asking the big questions. The characters are expertly written and it’s, dare I say, impossible not to empathize with their struggles and cheer on their victories. What I think I love best about it though is the pervading sense of hope throughout; World Running Down is about good people doing their best to survive in a world that’s just trying to get by, by acting with love and compassion. That’s powerful.

Review: The Chasm (Finding Humanity #2) by Branwen O’Shea

February 25, 2023 by A.J. Calvin Leave a Comment

The Chasm was an excellent sequel to The Calling. I recommend both books for fans of adventure-driven science fiction with an array of very interesting characters.

If you’re in the mood for some mind-bending sci-fi/horror and/or are a fan of Chuck Palahniuk, this is the collection for you. It will keep you on your toes and challenge your imagination in the best way possible.

Review: The Calling (Finding Humanity #1) by Branwen O’Shea

February 24, 2023 by A.J. Calvin Leave a Comment

The Calling is not your typical YA science fiction story, and there was a lot to this world beyond the ice age and the sickness, but the characters and the conflict between them were what really drew me in.

Review: Of Mycelium and Men (The Biomass Conflux #1) by William C. Tracy

February 16, 2023 by A.J. Calvin Leave a Comment

This was a very interesting read, and from my perspective as a microbiologist, well-researched. I’m interested to see where book 2 will take the story.

Review: Aestus Book 2: The Colony (Aestus #2) by S.Z. Attwell

February 11, 2023 by A.J. Calvin Leave a Comment

Aestus: The Colony was on par with the first book (The City), in terms of storytelling and writing quality.

This was a great sequel and conclusion to the Aestus series.

Review: Third Front (Dalí Tamareia #3) by E. M. Hamill

February 6, 2023 by Craig Bookwyrm Leave a Comment

Third Front is a fantastic conclusion to this trilogy, leaving some doors ajar which could mean a return for Dalí and her found family in future missions… I would read more from this universe and its characters in a heartbeat.

Review: Aestus Book 1: The City (Aestus #1) by S.Z. Attwell

February 5, 2023 by A.J. Calvin Leave a Comment

Aestus has a cinematic feel to many of its scenes, which I loved. Coupled with the pacing and the clean writing style, it made for a great read.

Review: Peacemaker (Dalí Tamareia #2) by E. M. Hamill

January 31, 2023 by Craig Bookwyrm Leave a Comment

I thoroughly enjoyed returning on mission with Dalí in this book, so much so that I immediately started reading book three after fininshing the last chapter.

SPSFC2 Quarterfinalist Review: Debunked: Volume One of the Terravenum Chronicles by Dito Abbott

January 28, 2023 by Ash Leave a Comment

Debunked is a whimsical Sci-Fantasy that is for anyone who feels a strong sense of nostalgia for the classic adventure story. This modern take will have you escaping reality and adventuring through the skies of Terravenum. Debunked reminded me of a curious explorer; unable to be confined by the limits of imagination.

SPSFC2 Quarterfinalist Review: Night Music by Tobias Cabral

January 26, 2023 by Ash Leave a Comment

Set on a mysterious and unsettling Martian world, Night Music brought forth an otherworldly force that drew from its eerie origins.
