About this author


I first heard about Josh Hanagarne through Megan Newman, the editorwe share at Penguin. Megan told me I’d like Josh because we’re annoyed by the same things. I’m sure she’s right (editors are paid to be right, and Megan is a great editor), but it’s hard to focus on that when you look at the many ways we’re different.


Josh is a librarian in Salt Lake City who was raised in a deeply religious LDS...

Fuckness by Andersen Prunty
Fuckness
by Andersen Prunty (Goodreads Author)
This is my first exposure to Andersen Prunty, and I'm still not sure what to think of it. I think it was a story of an abused kid who takes a run through purgatory, seemingly on his way to hell (horns and all), and instead reaches heaven -- to his su...more

The World's Strongest Librarian by Josh Hanagarne
The World's Strongest Librarian may be the best book about strength training I've ever read, even though lifting is only 10 percent of it. It's also among the best books I've read about losing your religion, loving your family, wrestling with a disab...more

Gates of Fire by Steven Pressfield
Gates of Fire
by Steven Pressfield (Goodreads Author)
Just a great work of historical fiction. This is the standard all historical novelists should aspire to.
Lou Schuler rated a book 5 of 5 stars
Kingpin by Kevin Poulsen
I read this because I have a couple of characters in my own fiction who are hackers, and I didn't really have much of an idea how cybercrime works. Now that I know ... holy shit! If I thought I had anything worth stealing I'd have trouble sleeping, k...more

Unholy Night by Seth Grahame-Smith
I read this one before Vampire Hunter, and thoroughly enjoyed it.

Abraham Lincoln by Seth Grahame-Smith
Very clever premise, and a lot more interesting than I expected it to be.

Days of Blood & Starlight by Laini Taylor
A tragic case of sequelitis: the author can't match the narrative intensity of the original (understandable, given that Daughter of Smoke and Bone was an amazing piece of writing and storytelling), and spends almost all her time maneuvering the chara...more

A Dance With Dragons by George R.R. Martin
I wish George Martin's editor would work a little harder. This is a thousand-page book that could easily have been twice as good at half the length. In chapter after chapter we see character after character sit down and drink wine or beer to think ab...more
