With "Into The Vortex," writer Charles E. Gannon is presenting the middle of his epic fantasy "Vortex Of Worlds" trilogy. But as he explains in this exclusive Q&A, this story is bigger than a trilogy...and the genre of epic fantasy.

Not what I was expecting — the other books of his I've read have been cyberpunk sci-fi — but this dark, somewhat comic Gulf War story is still rather interesting.

Read Nghi Vo's "Into The Riverlands: The Singing Hills Cycle" tonight.

Oh, I do so love her vividly written novellas...

For anyone who missed part or all of the great space adventure "The Outer Worlds," the updated and upgraded version of this first-person sci-fi space opera action-RPG is absolutely worth your space bucks. Here's my review of "The Outer Worlds: Spacer's Choice Edition."

An exciting and unexpected end to this epic duology. Good stuff.

We usually think of humans colonizing solid celestial bodies: The Moon, Mars. But in her romantic sci-fi mystery novella "The Mimicking Of Known Successes," writer Malka Older sent people somewhere rather gassy. To lean more, check out this exclusive Q&A.

An excellent collection. As good as the earlier one I read, But, I think, a bit more adventurous.

Seems like this is going to be as gripping as the first book in this duology.

A very exciting and engaging story. Now to the second half of this duology.

So are we just not going to talk about how The Swamp Thing is now cannon in ?

Is so far as impressive as the earlier collection of his that I read not long ago.

Like all good people, author Sim Kern is concerned about our climate. And like all good teachers, they're trying to educate people. Which is why they've written the young adult, dystopian, cli-fi, sci-fi novel "Seeds For The Swarm," which you can learn about in this exclusive interview.

Yet another good one. Glad there's still more of his for me to read.

While the joke about people on drugs has them saying, "Ooooh, the colors," in my new interview with author Paz Pardo, she explains why, in her alt-history sci-fi allegory / police procedural novel "The Shamshine Blind," people yell, "AAAAA! THE COLORS! THE PAINFUL, WEAPONIZED COLORS!!"
