Starting with the Children of Time series, I’ve gone through that man’s back catalogue and have just been impressed by all the many ways he creates worlds and ideas that explore the vastness of time and the science of change. I’ve just started his Shadows of the Apt and am excited for where it will go. As for CoT, I loved the spiders, but I’m weird and don’t fear spiders on sight, just when I know they’re venomous to humans or pets.

I JUST got back into Brown this week. I’m about half way through Golden Son and am loving the direction. It’s like he started a series when Hunger games was trailing off and had enough time to pivot once he learned how big an audience there was for Game of Thrones. I’m fascinated to see where it goes. After more than a year between the first and second, I can feel the draw to a “high point.” This one dives down in tone very quickly and I just want nice things for them.

Man, the expanse prose is so stylish to me. It’s my preferred way to experience it all because it builds a tone and a world that just feels bittersweet in a way the flash of the show hasn’t captured for me. I need to keep on the show though, as it is still well made. Though it might be fun to go back through the series.

Enjoy your upcoming reads! This kind of sci-fi just sucks me in. I’m glad to see someone else draw in too!
