Historia
God is change. That is the central truth of the Earthseed movement, whose unlikely prophet is 18-year-old Lauren Olamina. The young woman's diary entries tell the story of her life amid a violent 21st-century hell of walled neighborhoods and drug-crazed pyromaniacs - and reveal her evolving Earthseed philosophy. Against a backdrop of horror emerges a message of hope: if we are willing to embrace divine change, we will survive to fulfill our destiny among the stars.

A classic: beautifully read, beautifully written.
Revisado: 03-28-25
This book was a classic the minute Octavia Butler wrote it. And it has life far beyond its beginnings.
I was surprised how appropriate it was again, experiencing it in 2025. Chilling and human and beautiful.

Historia
Annie has always had high hopes for her future. But the reality of her life just isn’t measuring up. She loves her fiancé, Greg–doesn’t she? She’s going to get her degree and open her own business–won’t she? Then, a strange old woman shows up outside her house, and she seems to know a lot about Annie. An awful lot. Annie could tell the old woman to get lost. Yet there’s something about her Annie just can’t shake. And what she learns could change her life forever–but is it the life she envisioned?

Some moments of Greatness
Revisado: 03-18-25
… amidst a mash-up of been there, read that. I thought the beginning was quite promising, but it was interesting enough to sustain me. The performance of the narrator was excellent.

Historia
Amy Nicols (Lizzy Caplan) was an FBI agent with a dogged need to protect everyone—until that instinct caused her to mishandle a crisis, lose innocent lives, and lose her job. Now a civilian working in private security, that mistake still haunts her. One morning on the commuter train, she overhears a young couple plotting a murder. Ignoring warnings from her family and friends, Amy’s instinct to protect and serve compels her to investigate. But the further she goes, the more she finds her own life in danger.

Amazing full cast audio production and storyline

Great Performance. Meh Story.
Revisado: 03-06-25
I wanted this to be a lot better than it was. Great performances from great actors but marred by a flimsy yet heavy-handed script. Sadly I laughed a couple of times at a moment’s absurdity.

Historia
Two astronomers have detected a strange, pulsing signal from deep space. Within hours, the US government goes into lockdown, restricting airspace and scrubbing scientific data. Was the signal an intercepted communication revealing alarming plans for an enemy’s military strike? Or has humanity at long last found proof of extraterrestrial life?

Smart and well crafted
Revisado: 03-01-25
This one was fun. The authors avoided obvious tropes, and while it had strong echoes of a very famous graphic novel, it was well acted and well presented.

Bester was so far ahead of his time!
Revisado: 01-17-25
While parts of the book suffer inevitably from being written at a different time, the contradictions of Gully Foyle and the utterly bizarre nature of Bester’s universe make for a wonderful book.

The Mote In God's Eye is their acknowledged masterpiece, an epic novel of mankind's first encounter with alien life that transcends the genre. No lesser an authority than Robert A. Heinlein called it "possibly the finest science fiction novel I have ever read".

More Psychology than Pew Pew
Revisado: 01-10-25
An excellent and sprawling classic piece of 70s science fiction. More about politics and psychology, and the impact of meeting an alien species then about space battles, although they’re in there too. Classic Niven and Pournelle.

Classic Locked Room Whodunnit
Revisado: 12-28-24
Very entertaining and quick read. This is a classic locked room whodunnit and for me stood out because I learned so much about this period in Japan, the behaviors and social mores of the time. Quite fascinating.

The most philosophical book in a philosophical series.

Children of the Mind was beautifully written and beautifully performed. It was philosophical and slow moving and utterly engaging.

Historia
Atticus O’Sullivan, last of the Druids, lives peacefully in Arizona, running an occult bookshop and shape-shifting in his spare time to hunt with his Irish wolfhound. His neighbors and customers think that this handsome, tattooed Irish dude is about twenty-one years old - when in actuality, he’s twenty-one centuries old. Not to mention: He draws his power from the earth, possesses a sharp wit, and wields an even sharper magical sword known as Fragarach, the Answerer. Unfortunately, a very angry Celtic god wants that sword, and he’s hounded Atticus for centuries....

Gothic Romantic horror
Revisado: 11-15-24
I’m not the audience for this… I went all the way through, as I enjoyed the lush Gothic narrative… But cut it done with more horrible horror. Having said that I did enjoy the splash of Lovecraftian miasma.
