Justina Robson's Silver Screen
is a reprint of a novel published in the UK in 1999. Deals with AI rights, weird geniuses, and multi-national intrigue. Review due in the Spring issue of Prometheus.Mike Resnick's Starship: Mutiny
a military sf novel, and the first Resnick book I've ever read, a surprising confession as I own several of his books but never opened one before now. This book is sparse and purely action driven, with very little character development. The title foretells the climax of the novel, and it's the first in a five book series. Review due in the Spring issue of Prometheus.A reprint of a classic sf novel, George Zebrowski's Macrolife: A Mobile Utopia
arrived from Pyr books last week. It's been added to the growing stack for the Summer issue.Keith Brook's novel, Genetopia
, received a starred review from Publishers Weekly:British author Brooke's engrossing far-future parable intertwines old, old human questions: Who am I? Where am I? Where am I going? Must I go? After centuries of biotechnology gone berserk, "True" humans inhabit a land of mortal fears where a chance microbe or the changing vats of their enemies can dehumanize them forever. "Mutts," grotesque "Lost" subhumans, outwardly devote themselves to their True masters, though like pre–Civil War slaves, the mutts secretly talk of finding "Harmony," freedom from their inborn servitude.Currently on top of the pile for the Summer issue.
John David's Passion for Dead Leaves.
I read the predecessor in this series. Have not yet opened this book. Review due in the Summerissue of Prometheus.Steven Burgauer's The Last American,
another book I won't be able to review until the Summer issue. Have not yet started this one. Been a while since I read one of Burgauer's books.James P. Hogan's Catastrophes, Chaos & Convolutions
Okay, I bought this one myself, but I list it here as the review probably won't appear until the Summer issue of Prometheus.
