I first learned about Bonnie Milani through the Sci-Fi Roundtable, an online group frequented by authors who exchange tips and guidance about how to improve their craft. One of the best things about hanging with writer types is that you discover...
Writers also read. Crazy, right? Zeedub Reviews is my collection of book reviews, which are also posted on Amazon, Goodreads, and Bookbub. Ratings and reviews are the currency by which authors gain visibility. They are the single greatest way to show your support and keep us writing the stories that you love.
Zeedub Reviews: Redemption of Sisyphus (Shan Takhu Legacy #3) by Eric Michael Craig
Redemption of Sisyphus is the third book of the Shan Takhu Legacy, a hard science fiction series by Eric Michael Craig. My previous reviews of Legacy of Pandora (book one) and Fulcrum of Odysseus (book two) dove into Craig's writing style and...
Zeedub Reviews: Welcome to the Madhouse by S.E. Sasaki
An old adage in the writing world is "write what you know." This is good advice, because few things can pull a reader out of a story faster than an author butchering their subject material. This was the primary reason why I greatly appreciated...
Zeedub Reviews: Wrath of the Fury Blade by Geoff Habiger and Coy Kissee
My first experience with author team Geoff Habiger and Coy Kissee came through their novel Unremarkable, a period vampire thriller with lots of interesting twists and turns. It did not take long to uncover their affinity for genre blends, which...
Zeedub Reviews: Artemis by Andy Weir
Given the monumental success that was The Martian, I almost feel bad for Andy Weir (almost). No matter how Artemis cements its acclaim, readers are going to compare it to The Martian. And unfortunately, many will tarnish their experience by doing...
Zeedub Reviews: Unremarkable by Geoff Habiger and Coy Kissee
It shouldn't work. On paper, Unremarkable is a 20's era noir tale about gangsters and vampires with a heavy peppering of Jewish culture. Admittedly, I went into this book with an eyebrow raised. Few authors are brave enough to tackle genre blends...
Zeedub Reviews: Fulcrum of Odysseus (Shan Takhu Legacy #2) by Eric Michael Craig
Fulcrum of Odysseus is the second book of the Shan Takhu Legacy, a hard science fiction series by Eric Michael Craig. The story picks up right where Legacy of Pandora left off, which is a very good thing. If Craig had jumped more than a second into...
Zeedub Reviews: A Series of Unfortunate Events by Lemony Snicket
This book review may come as a surprise to some. After all, I am a science fiction novelist who writes about vampires and orange aliens. So why read and review a beloved children's book? Two reasons. First, I never read the series as a child...
Zeedub Reviews: Legacy of Pandora (Shan Takhu Legacy #1) by Eric Michael Craig
I first discovered Eric Michael Craig through his Atlas and the Winds series. The first book, entitled Stormhaven Rising, cemented my fandom in a big way. This is an author with a keen understanding of physics, a pragmatic view of political strife,...
