The Sons of Heaven by Kage Baker

A satisfying conclusion to one of my favorite SF series.
Aaron and 9 other people liked XenofoneX's review of White Like She:
White Like She by Bob Fingerman
"'White Like She' was one of the worst things Dark Horse ever published. Then it was one of the worst things Fantagraphics ever published. Now it's one of the worst books Image has ever published. That's really saying something, because Image used to " Read more of this review »

Special Exits by Joyce Farmer
Rate this book

This is a powerful and brutal depiction of the aging process, but I had trouble connecting with it emotionally. Farmer's characters tend to have unexpressive faces, and Farmer presents her story in a stark, objective way. As a result, I ended up feel ...more

This is New Weird fiction from before that term was invented.

A beautiful and important book that's gotten almost no attention from American readers, even though trauma and memory are such important topics in comics studies. It's a shame that this book was only translated digitally, and that it was not publiciz ...more

The Fox Wife by Yangsze Choo
"Well, this was such a letdown.
At least now I know what to pick up when I want to reignite feelings of anger or frustration.

This book started off so promisingly; I enjoyed almost everything about it until I reached the halfway point, after which my en" Read more of this review »
