Fun and Funny SciFi A fast-paced and amusing read. A crew of misfits and mess-ups is sent on a likely suicide-mission to investigate the titular Malevolent Asteroid and bumble their way into history. The opening felt a little cliche and there were a f ...more |

Fun, but not for everyone I wish it was possible to give fractional stars. I would have given this book 3.5. Since it’s not possible, I went with 4. On the plus side, this offers some fun adventures in the arctic, experienced by cheerful and upbeat ch ...more |

Fast and Furious Dark Satire This is a page turner. It would be funnier if it didn’t seem queasily possible. A fast, engaging read about a dictatorial president driving the USA off the rails due to a mixture of temper, incompetence, and ambition. If y ...more |

Lyrical, Original, and Enchanting The Staglings is an odd but affecting adventure full of magic, monsters, and brave deeds. It does a great job of establishing an alternate reality reminiscent of ancient sagas and epics that felt to me like it offered ...more |

Glorious, Grotesque, and Grand Another great entry in the Splatter Elf series. By turns hilarious, horrific, grim, and affecting. If you like your fantasy served cold, hard, and dripping with gore, you’ll love New Sword Smell. As usual with these book ...more |

“1. Don't think you can't write just because you can't write. No one is born knowing how to write. They learn how by trying.
2. Don't be discouraged just because you are discouraged. Everybody feels discouraged at some point when they're writing or trying to get published. You just have to keep going despite feeling like you can't.
3. Don't give up just because you gave up. You can always start again until you're dead. And even then...who really knows?”
