Sita Brahmachari image credit: Amazon UK Review by Nisha Vyas-Myall It’s been a while since I last added a review, and my apologies for that. Many things have got in the way of reading- I’ve been on the same few books for the last couple of months. I managed to clear some of my TBRContinue reading “Where the River Runs Gold”

200 Science Fiction Books From Authors of Marginalized Gender: The List
Last year, in honour of 200 years since Frankenstein, we attempted to tweet a daily list of 200 science fiction books from writers who are not cis-male. However, real life got in the way of completing it all. As such I am now sharing here the full list: 1. A Door into Ocean by JoanContinue reading “200 Science Fiction Books From Authors of Marginalized Gender: The List”
H(A)PPY
Nicola Barker Review By Kris Vyas-Myall Sometimes there are works that are beautiful in style. Sometimes there are works with great character and depth. Sometimes there are works that I think about regularly long after I have finished them. It is rare to find one that is all of these but it comes in theContinue reading “H(A)PPY”
Under The Pendulum Sun
Jeannette Ng Review by Kris Vyas-Myall This is one of those novels that has already been so discussed and engaged with by people much smarter than I am. As such I worry than anything I have to say will add little of note to the ongoing conversation. With that in mind however it is aContinue reading “Under The Pendulum Sun”
Food Of The Gods
Cassandra Khaw Review By Kris Vyas-Myall Last year I first read Cassandra Khaw’s work and was absolutely astounded by the quality of her writing. It seems she can turn her hand to anything, whether it is the intensity of Breathe, the dexterity of Speak or the weirdness of Hammers on Bone. She has so farContinue reading “Food Of The Gods”

Slated
Teri Terry Picture Credit: Goodreads Review by: Nisha Vyas-Myall This book brought together two things I really enjoy: political dystopia and sci-fi (something I dabble in myself as a writer- not to plug myself, but I have a short story in Holdfast Magazine’s 2016 Brexit supplement and I have another story in the pipeline). WhenContinue reading “Slated”
Winter Tide
Ruthanna Emrys Review By Kris Vyas-Myall Originally Posted At Geek Syndicate There are two interesting recent trends in writing; well-respected short fiction writers releasing fantastic first genre novels (such as Yoon Ha Lee, Ken Liu or Mary Rickert), and the use of Lovecraft to explore the history of racism in America (e.g. The Ballad ofContinue reading “Winter Tide”
Dozey’s Journey Through the Meowtiverse: Just Don’t Know What To Do With My Elf
Recommendations by Dozey Hello, I am Dozey! I am travelling the Meowtiverse having great adventures, exploring great writings. Why should humans have all the fun? I have most enjoyed being an elf.

Just One Damned Thing After Another (Chronicles of St Marys, book #1)
Written by Jodi Taylor Review by: Nisha Just like many bibliophiles, I have an obsession not just with reading books, but acquiring them as well. And I married a man who shares that obsession, so we basically enable each other. So when I walk past a shelf of reduced books in a supermarket, I thinkContinue reading “Just One Damned Thing After Another (Chronicles of St Marys, book #1)”
