I have loved the Finder Chronicles series because I really enjoy Fergus. I love this science fiction, space opera with Fergus being sort of a detective / Equalizer / McGyver kind of guy with a real layer of humor. In Finder, Fergus “retrieves” a lost space ship and returns it to the rightful owner in […]
I’m a big fan of this author’s military / political space opera with the Lost Fleet. In Our Stars has some of that feel but is more in the Science Fiction Romance genre which felt weird. The romance was not typical to a romance novel. Other aspects were more similar with politics, aliens, and inexplicable […]
Floating Hotel is written with many different characters each having a section with their story. The beginning though was all Carl starting with a historical section then moving into present day. I enjoyed that and that format helped me get into the story, and understand the world building . The next section though had other […]
I love everything about the Murderbot Diaries series. I just adore the grumpy Murderbot who wants to be left alone to watch its shows. The straightforward comments on its own situation is fabulous and funny. I highly recommend this series, and always prefer to read in order. The audio version is stellar and I prefer […]
If you have enjoyed Jack Campbell’s other series, Lost Fleet and Beyond the Frontier, and Lost Stars, Genesis Fleet series, you will love this too. I started reading Jack Campbell in 2015 when I was sent an ARC of one of the Leviathon, which was the final book in the Beyond the Frontier series. Of […]

The females are strong and smart, former soldiers, and the books are primarily from their point of view. The battles and action are lightened by the romance layer. I have been so […]
This is the final installment of Janitors of the Post-Apocalypse. It has been a really fun journey throughout the entire series. I loved Mops in the first book and that love has only grown with each story. She is such a wonderful character. She went from feral human, to head janitor, to captain […]
Space Academy Washouts starts a few years after book two, Space Academy Rejects. Vance Turbo’s reputation and the reputation of his team are in the toilet. He is sent to go after a criminal group at a peace treaty, but Vance wants the treaty more than he wants the crime syndicate. And there are also […]
I read the first book in this series when I was on vacation in Canada this summer. This time, I listened to the audiobook. This is the first time I’ve switched from reading to listening in years. I will admit it took me a bit to get into the story. I think it […]
Sorry, this might not be the best review I’ve ever written. I have been crazy busy with work and had COVID a few weeks ago, plus my mother was in town for a week and a half (which is how I got COVID, the one time I dropped my guard the few days we went […]
