Cure: Book One in the Strandville Zombie Series
Recommended by
weaver
I admit this was my first time reading a zombie book. The zombie genre hasn't always been my favorite in film and television, so I wasn't keen on reading a zombie book. But Frisch has a medical background and that made this book very interesting, as it revolved around a hospital. Very enjoyable, my only regret was that I didn't immediately read the next book so now I have to re-read it. :)

FIYAH - Issue One
Recommended by
kevin
I was expecting to be impressed. But instead I was STUNNED!
FIYAH Literary Magazine is an essential work. While the included stories can all be considered speculative fiction, the breadth of ideas is astounding.
It's all finished off with a nice sample of a self-published work. A great idea.
If the subsequent issues are half as good as this first one, you should definitely subscribe.
Memory
Recommended by
kevin
An amazing story that more than fulfils my need for great world-building. Such a creative mix of the unrecognisable, beautiful prose, and an uncanny skill for weaving technology into mythology.
Memory is slow to build, but when it does, it does so steadily. As our characters explore the 'Ring of the World' we learn with them, understand with them and fight back with them.
A wonderful read.
Airedale
Recommended by
sakina
Gritty, relentless, uniquely West Yorkshire and above all, realistic. Come for the plot, stay for the intense detail, well-drawn characters and well-thought-out political backdrop.
Saga #1
Recommended by
kevin
Created by writer Brian K. Vaughan and artist Fiona Staples, Saga is a beautifully intimate space opera.
It touches on race, religion, conflict, family and love, with a deft hand and imagery that is just sublime.
Proof that Image Comics' creator-owned approach really works. These are the kinds of stories that comics were made for.
Silver Moon: A Wolves of Wolf’s Point Novel
Recommended by
kevin
What a fun read! Menopausal werewolves, a town to protect, and a love to be found.
Becca didn't think the change was THAT literal. But that's what you get in Wolf's Point, I suppose. The name must come from somewhere...
A great concept, and lovely, warm, fast-paced writing.
Looking forward to reading Book 2!
INTERZONE #285 (JAN-FEB 2020)
Recommended by

An average issue, with interesting stories by Gregor Hartmann, Andy Dudak and John Possidente.
A Duet for Invisible Strings
Recommended by
kevin
A Duet for Invisible Strings is a romance novella filled with music, mystery, and love, with a paranormal twist, and is my perfect romance story.
The writing is often haunting, and at other times, sweetly hilarious. Which, in all, paints the most wonderful picture.
A beautiful romance that I just couldn't put down. A must read for anyone looking for deep characters in a short book.
Fermi's Progress 4: The Phone Job
Recommended by
kevin
The Phone Job continues the journey we're all on together, and concludes it in the most space opera way possible. Not only with a bang, but with hope.
Fermi's Progress is a collection of novellas that read like Red Dwarf meets DS9, crashes into Blake's Seven, by way of every single Gerry Anderson series, and a whole lot of Space 1999.
This is great science fiction you'll love.
