I waited about 5 minutes to start Alliance after finishing Linesman. I had already requested the arc after starting Linesman because I knew right away. I HAD to know more. About 92% of the way into this book, I already felt the terror of it ending and not knowing when the next book […]
I wanted to read Linesman when I got it and every time I thought of it, and finally managed to read it earlier this month. I’ve been very thrilled with many of my Ace Roc star gifts and especially seem to enjoy the space opera offerings. Linesman has space and technology and […]
I’m reading more science fiction, and what I call regular fantasy, and even space opera due to the Ace Roc Stars. There are many great subgenres in science fiction. This is sort of future / technology book. Usually I really like those, but not so much this one. The primary character is a woman […]

Patricia Briggs is a talented and engaging writer and I always have enjoyed everything of hers I have read. This is no exception. The short stories included are: Silver, Fairy Gifts, Gray, Seeing Eye, Alpha […]
