Juggler of Worlds by Edward Lerner & Larry Niven
SF author Edward Lerner told SCI FI Wire that his new novel, Juggler of Worlds–which was written in collaboration with Larry Niven–is a kind of “secret future history.”
“Larry’s Known Space milieu is, of course, one of the great future histories in SF,” Lerner said in an interview. “Secret, because while Juggler rigorously adheres to past disclosures about future events, much about Known Space that has been mysterious–or apparently random, or seemingly coincidental–is now revealed.”

Makers by Cory Doctorow Many science fiction novels ask, “What is the next big thing?” This is hardly a surprising trend. Within our own lifetimes, we have seen a succession of these next big things. It’s a theme as old as the genre itself. Makers, the extraordinary new novel by Cory Doctorow instead concerns two

Many folks enjoy Science Fiction and recently a friend who is a vegetarian and has lived all over Europe expressed to me his years of reading Sci Fi and listed many of his favorite authors. These included authors like Robert Heinlein, Charles Sheckley, Larry Niven, Isaac Asimov, Ursula k. Leguin… older science fiction for the

The Strain: Book One of The Strain Trilogy by Guillermo del Toro and Chuck Hogan The Strain (Morrow, $26.99), by film director Guillermo del Toro and thriller writer Chuck Hogan, breaks no obvious new ground, as its vampiric plague is similar to, if in some respects a departure from, the generations of literary and filmic

The Strain by Guillermo del Toro & Chuck Hogan Vampires these days are sorta lovelorn and wimpy. Not Guillermo del Toro’s. His will suck you dry with a stinger-tipped tentacle. It’s not really the kind of stuff teen girls want to read. But Del Toro, director of the Oscar-winning Pan’s Labyrinth — as well as
Juggler of Worlds by Larry Niven & Edward M. Lerner – Review

Juggler of Worlds by Larry Niven & Edward M. Lerner Juggler of Worlds takes up the story in a time-jumping fashion, moving ahead a year or three between chapters, and telling events that some readers have already seen in other stories. But for the newcomer, the authors do a good job of explaining who and
Without Warning by John Birmingham – Review
about 1 year ago - No comments
Without Warning by John Birmingham What we are left with is a somewhat trashy, although still enjoyable, techno-thriller with a batty premise. It’s all fun, but a bit on the forgettable side. This is a shame as the author’s previous work, the alternate-history Axis of Time trilogy, was much more successful in exploring its premise

Pushing Ice by Alastair Reynolds Pushing Ice is a hard SF novel in the ‘Big Dumb Object’ tradition, following in the footsteps of Arthur C. Clarke’s Rendezvous with Rama, Larry Niven’s Ringworld and Greg Bear’s Eon. However, unlike a lot of BDO books which tend to put characterisation way behind spectacle and awe, Pushing Ice

Fathom by Cherie Priest Fantasy author Cherie Priest says that her new novel, Fathom, has its roots in a vivid dream she had while vacationing near an abandoned old house. “[The house was] boarded up and surrounded by trees, with the property’s edge just barely out of high tide’s reach,” Priest said. “It was lovely
Escape from Hell by Larry Niven & Jerry Pournelle – Review

Escape from Hell by Larry Niven & Jerry Pournelle Although very similar in tone and theme to INFERNO, the sequel is an exciting damnation thriller, as Carpenter learns how hard it is to turn the other cheek with some of the damned he and Sylvia meet. The story line is fast-paced and of course pays
