| This is one for the science buffs. there is a lot of geology in this book. I felt a little bit unsettled by some of the vindictive remarks against other scientists. A fair amount of commentary is devoted to the development of scientific dogma. Intere...more | |

I liked this. Some good old-fashioned space opera, well-developed aliens with qualities that make them interesting and potentially dangerous. You never really know what they're going to do. Also really awesome that I managed to get the author to sign t...more |

Hi, PattyI have Out of Here loaded into my Kindle Fire on my TBR scroll.

Thanks for accepting my friend request, Patty! I am reading Writers of the Future Vol 27 and enjoyed all the layers of This Peaceful State of War so that I had to look you up on Good Reads. I have been working on a couple short stories myself. So thank you for the perfect example of one that is original and satisfying.
Thank you for connecting with me, Its so good to have another book loving reader as a goodreads friend. I look forward to sharing my love of books with you. Please check out my book blog "Where Every Book = A New Adventure", if you haven't already. -♥-
Hi Patty, how are you? Thanks for the request, sorry it took a little while to accept! Hope you're having a great day.
