In Our Stars (2024)
(Doomed Earth, book 1)
Jack Campbell
"Jack Campbell's IN OUR STARS is a wonderful, engaging, often uplifting adventure about caring and doing what's right, no matter the odds or the cost. And the soul of it all is honestly reminiscent of Heinlein at his best."
thumb
Theater of Spies (2019)
(Alternate World War, book 2)
S M Stirling
"A rollicking spy thriller set in a familiar WWI, but with a 'what might have been America'."
thumb
Gates of Stone (2019)
(Lord of the Islands, book 1)
Angus Macallan
"I meant to give Gates of Stone a quick look before I started reading it--and couldn't put it down. Angus Macallan is a brilliant storyteller!"
