BOOK #75, 2025
TEN BIRDS THAT CHANGED THE WORLD, by Stephen Moss (2024)
The title is slightly misleading; it’s humanity’s interactions with birds that has changed the world. But IGNORANCE, FEAR, & OVERALL A$$HOLISHNESS LEADS TO TERRIBLE CONSEQUENCES FOR AVIAN POPULATION was too unwieldy.

WHAT MOVES THE DEAD, by T. Kingfisher (2023)
Creepy take on Poe’s HOUSE OF USHER. Adding ghoulish twists to the narrative, Kingfisher delivers a tight gothic that’ll give you the willies. When a story makes a rabbit unnerving (or a hare), you know it’s working.

THE WHITE LIBRARY, by Paul Voermans (2020)
Strange, exuberant sci-fi fantasy. In alternate history Australia, a librarian invents a travel portal that leads to physical transformation. A strange plot, but Voermans layers further absurdities that eventually overwhelm it.

BLOOD MUSIC, by Greg Bear (1985)
Fascinating take on the Frankenstein scenario. A scientist discovers his cells have become self-aware & want answers as to their existence. It’s terrific fodder for dense sci-fi, but Bear’s talent for plotting keeps the story grounded.

VENISS UNDERGROUND, by Jeff VanderMeer (2003)
Phantasmagorical wonder. Plot is secondary to presentation, a world as dazzling as it is dangerous, saturated with imagery in a voice henceforth known as “VanderMeerian.” It’s a spectacular accomplishment in world-building.

BOOK #70, 2025
THE QUEEN, by Nick Cutter (2024)
Extreme horror by a Canadian master. Cutter cranks it up to eleven, giving us an ultra-gory freakfest of missing kids, mad scientists, insect imagery, & gooey body horror. Hardcore sci-fi horror that hits all my feel-bad nihilistic buttons.

Satirical look at workplace insanity. Within an all but abandoned building, employees perform menial tasks until a mysterious ‘thing’ appears.
As it turns out, the REAL ‘thing in the snow’ was the friends we made along the way.

THE MARTIAN WAR, by Kevin J. Anderson (2012)
An enjoyable H.G. Wells pastiche. Mixing in characters & events from Wells’ works, Anderson uses Wells himself as point man in humanity’s first contact with aliens. It’s a fun romp, with an emphasis on Wells’ more fantastical sci-fi ideas.
