ZACHRY WHEELER
SCIENCE FICTION NOVELIST
Welcome to the Zeedub Blog! I have a lot to say about many things, be it through book reviews, interviews, or casual musings about the wonderful world of hummus. Disclaimer: my opinions are my own and they change over time, like a normal human being with a functioning cerebrial cortex.
Now that we're on year two of a century-defining pandemic, I noticed a peculiar anomaly. I am actually feeling better about my writing life. The last few years have been a maddening tornado of shifting tastes and marketing woes. Every author I know...
We return to the Nelson Mandela Medical Space Station for the latest chapter in S.E. Sasaki's space opera thriller. Saving Grace is book four of The Grace Lord Series, one of the most original and interesting sagas I have read in quite some time....
We conclude season one of Wings of Earth with the Stranger Bedfellows finale (book five). If that sounds more like a television premise, then you are not far off. Eric Michael Craig constructed this series within an episodic framework. He treats...
Ethan Walker becomes a Fleet Captain! He acquires the Elysium Sun as a sister ship to the Olympus Dawn, and as one might expect: more ships, more problems. Walker takes it all in stride as the "more problems" also means "more money." It allows him...
The adventure continues for Captain Ethan Walker and his merry band of misfits aboard the Olympus Dawn. Chains of Dawn is book three in the Wings of Earth series by Eric Michael Craig. In lieu of jumping straight into the action, Craig takes a more...

What was the inspiration for your latest story? For Nimi: When First Contact Becomes Last Call, I took inspiration from several sci-fi classics like The War of the Worlds and The Day the Earth Stood Still. I am always looking for tropes to satirize...
What if your home wanted you dead? This is the question posed by Alyx: An AI's Guide to Love and Murder by Brent A. Harris. It's a sharp hook, one that forced me to narrow my gaze and glare at the thermostat. Harris is a talented author who writes...
"Prohibition. Gangsters. Vampires." That's the tagline for this series, which neatly summates what you're getting into as a reader. Unavoidable is book three of the Saul Imbierowicz series by SFF author team Geoff Habiger and Coy Kissee, a gripping...
I am a science fiction humor writer. As of this post, I am about to launch a new sci-fi comedy series. And while I am very excited to get it into the hands of readers, I am also dreading the inevitable backlash. This is because all humor suffers...
I honestly don't know how some authors do it. It seems like they're everywhere all at once. Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, Goodreads, Twitch, MySpace, Arpanet, the Moon, and lurking around my basement. Social media icons litter their websites like...
Anyone who has read my books, shorts, and blog is well aware that Douglas Adams is my favorite author. I celebrate the man's entire library, from the wildly popular Hitchhiker's series to the obscurely hilarious Last Chance to See. I even dedicated...
