Alan Orloff recommends
Necessary Deeds (2024)
Mark Wish
"Mark Wish's Necessary Deeds hits the sweet spot: sly, sharp, and satirical. Highly entertaining!"
When Earth Shall Be No More (2022)
Paul Awad and Kathryn O'Sullivan
"Awad and O'Sullivan's When Earth Shall Be No More is the perfect sci-fi adventure: compelling characters, a frantic race against time, and a daring mission with the fate of humanity hanging in the balance. A dimension-bending page-turner - no matter what galaxy you may inhabit!"
