The purpose of Thrifty Thursday is to read a book which was free (at some point). Kindle freebie on December 16, 2016 (currently $3.99 as of writing this post) Overall rating 4.0 with 8 ratings and 3 reviews This would be an unlikely choice except I have been reading more science fiction and Kelly […]
Since I really enjoyed this author’s Kitty Norville books and I’ve rediscovered my love of science fiction, Martians Abroad seemed like a perfect fit. I was so excited to read it. It was interesting while I was reading and learning about the world and the characters. People are living on Earth and Mars and various […]
I got the first book in this series as part of my first Ace Roc star package and I knew from reading the blurb I would love it. I did and I have continued to love this series. Of course, it is space opera and I’m renewing my love affair with […]

I got all but the newest of these books at the library as Kindle ebooks. These stories are in the world of Jack Campbell’s Lost Fleet books. They start at the point where the Alliance / Syndicate war has ended and now the governments need to refocus and rebuild their economies. This is […]
This is the latest in a spinoff series. The original series is The Lost Fleet; this series is Beyond the Frontier. It all feels like one series, even one story, as each book picks up where the last one left off. I listened to every book but this one on audio, CDs in my […]
Another book I wouldn’t have picked and really loved which came from Ace Roc stars. I seriously need to consider more space opera / science fiction because I enjoy it so much. The world building is scattered into various dire circumstances. The politics and rest of the world are a shelf in the […]
This is another book I probably never would have read if it weren’t for Ace Roc stars. I would have been missing out! This is science fiction in the world of virtual reality gaming with a touch of romance and humor, a very light touch. I appreciate that it is a new adult […]
