Hi! I'm mystery, fantasy, and science fiction author Alex P. Berg. Be sure to check out my bestselling Daggers & Steele series, a fun, fast-paced fantasy/noir mystery hybrid! I've also written urban fantasy, epic sci-fi, and more.

My review rating system is as follows:
5 = Amazing, I absolutely loved it! (Fantastic!)
4 = A very good book, although I had a few quibbles with it. (Great!)
3 = A book I liked, but either it had a few more serious problems or I didn't connect well with it. (Still good!)
2 = I had major issues with this book. (Not very good...)
1 = Unfortunately, I hated this book. (Real bad!)
DNFs get no star rating.

Musings on my Art Journey

About five and a half years ago, I decided I wanted to learn how to draw. I can’t say what promoted the desire; maybe it was the COVID lockdown, or perhaps I just needed a different creative outlet from writing given that writing had become my job.

Greer Stothers’ Apparently, Sir Cameron Needs to Die tries to be a number of things—an irreverent, oddball fantasy, a queer/transgender romance, and a far future dying earth story (sort of)—but unfortunately it doesn’t do any of them well.

Carl Sagan’s Contact, at least to me, is a mixed bag. As the title suggests, it’s an alien first contact novel, but it’s much more than that. It’s an introspective look into science and faith and the intersection of the two.

“It’s not that I hate mornings, it’s that they always come at such an inconvenient time of the day.”
Alex P. Berg, Red Hot Steele

“Before I’d even had a chance to sniff the backpack’s straps, a herd of the most surly, foul-tempered creatures ever to set foot on our gods’ green earth descended upon me in a wave of furrowed brows and accusatory fingers—angry librarians.”
Alex P. Berg, Cold Hard Steele

“I don’t suppose you’re feeling anything coming on about now? Maybe some mystical foresight into past events or a fleeting image of the threads of time?”
Alex P. Berg, Red Hot Steele
