Jason lives just outside Houston and enjoys reading, writing, movies, music (live and not), the Houston Astros (winning and not), singing karaoke and the Texas hill country, especially the vineyards.

Wool Omnibus by Hugh Howey
Wool Omnibus (Wool, #1-5)
by Hugh Howey (Goodreads Author)
One of the Best Sci-Fi Books I've Ever Read

And that's saying something, from someone who owns nearly 2,000 books, most of them sci-fi.

It takes a lot to get 5 stars from me. The book has to be near-perfect in every conceivable way, and it has to make...more
Steve Jobs by Walter Isaacson
I had no idea that Jobs death would impact me in the way it did. I'm far from an Apple devotee, though I have an iPhone and an iPad, and have previously owned an iPod. For a while, I swore off Apple completely; just ask anyone who owned a 2nd-gen iPo...more
The Cobra Trilogy by Timothy Zahn
The Cobra Trilogy
by Timothy Zahn (Goodreads Author)
These are the times I wish I could give out half-stars on reviews, because this "megabook" seriously deserves 4.5 stars. It takes a lot to get anything more than 4 stars from me, and Zahn is one of the few. I was fortunate enough to meet Mr. Zahn at...more
Haywire by Justin R. Macumber
Haywire
by Justin R. Macumber (Goodreads Author)
recommended to Jason Kristopher by: Justin R. Macumber
recommended for: Fans of hard sci-fi, sci-fi action, space warfare
I've always been a big fan of larger-than-life sci-fi stories and space warfare, and "Haywire" is no exception. I've also long retained an interest in nanotechnology, so this book caught my attention on several fronts.

This book kept me turning pages...more
