Grappling with the philosophical reality of clones is a trope as old as sci-fi. Teaming up with them comes up a lot. Killing them, too. But outsourcing killing your clones to another clone is a new one, and with a book a fun as Thirteen Ways to Kill Lulabelle Rock by Maud Woolf, I’m. Here. …

Anji Kills a King Review: The Fish Rots From Everywhere

Anji Kills a King wastes absolutely no time. With a title like that there’s no reason to beat around the bush, but Evan Leikam doesn’t even bother with setting the scene before we’re watching Anji coping with cleanup and escape. It’s bold, it’s striking, and it makes for a pulse-pounding introduction to the land of …

If you’re reading this right now I’m guessing you could use a break from the horrors of our current reality, might I suggest the horrors of not-so-different one? Stay with me here, because Cold Eternity by S.A. Barnes is a spooky sci-fi thriller that says “Fuck Billionaire and AI…in spaaaaace!” It’s a little bit Alien, …

Every time a new Robert Jackson Bennett book comes out, I read it way too fast and then feel something I mostly otherwise feel after eating an entire bag of Cadbury mini-eggs: not regret—never!—but longing to return to the start, to experience the whole thing over again. I want to have both the anticipation and …

It’s not really the done thing, but in talking about The River Has Roots, the first offering from Amal El-Mohtar since she co-authored This Is How You Lose the Time War with Max Gladstone, I have to first at least mention Margaret Atwood. Or really, I have to mention Atwood’s famous “Spelling” poem, which so …

Adam S. Leslie, you’ve written quite a book. Lost in the Garden is like a dream I had and forgot, and then Leslie went and excavated it. I don’t know how he did it, but this is whimsy without twee. It explodes the manic pixie dream girl trope without doing harm to the eponymous girl: …

It’s no secret that I am a big fan of Lev AC Rosen’s Evander Mills series. The first two books, Lavender House and The Bell in the Fog were on my favorites lists for the past two years. When I interviewed Rosen last year he spoke about how Lavender House was his Agatha Christie, and …

Ever wanted to ride a hurricane without leaving your home? That’s kind of the experience of reading The Sky on Fire, both figuratively and, in a couple of instances, also literally. This is a pulse-pounding novel that never stops chasing bigger and bigger storms, beginning with a fugitive hunt but somehow escalating from there to …

This is your summer book. Stop what you’re doing right now, get this book, and get some sort of fruit-based beverage to drink while reading it. I don’t think I have ever read a book like Running Close to the Wind. I don’t know if I ever will again. This is possibly the most unique …

We love to see a good old fashioned space spook-em-up. It’s the foundation of many, many franchises across all types of media, and Ghost Station by S.A. Barnes draws from these predecessors while still managing to tread new ground in a skin-crawlingly fun way. As Geekly Inc.’s resident mystery lover (really I just love to …
