Review: The Calculating Stars (A Lady Astronaut Novel #1) by Mary Robinette Kowal

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

An interesting look at how our world (and our advancement in space) might have been in an alternate version of history effected by a meteorite strike on Earth. This was a fascinating read.

SFF Book Recs for Autism Acceptance Month

April 30, 2023 by Justin Gross Leave a Comment

I’ve been on a journey of rediscovery since I found out I’m autistic. Armed with the knowledge that I’m not as alone as I felt, I’ve been trying to learn more about myself and how my mind works. Through this, I’ve come across some excellent SFF books that are either written by autistic authors or feature autistic characters. I believe that reading is one of the most powerful methods of building empathy and, as it is Autism Acceptance Month, I would like to share (in no particular order) a list of recommended SFF reads with you.

Review: A Psalm For The Wild-Built (Monk & Robot, #1) by Becky Chambers

Blurb: It’s been centuries since the robots of Panga gained self-awareness and laid down their tools; centuries since they wandered, en masse, into the wilderness, never to be seen again; centuries since they faded into myth and urban legend.
