SPSFC 3 Books I've Sampled

Image
As you know, I mostly read and write epic fantasy, but I have a bit of a soft spot for science fiction as well. And I'm always on the lookout for good indie hidden gems . So when the amazing Athena @ OneReadingNurse gave me a chance to join her SPSFC3 judging team, I decided to give it a try!  As a part of Team 4: Peripheral Prospectors , I've already sampled many amazing Sci-Fi books. We had a lot of great books assigned to our team and deciding which ones to put forward in the competition was no easy task! So before I dive into reading some of the Quarterfinalists in full, I wanted to introduce you to some of these great books I sampled so you can check them out too.  Some of these books I enjoyed and will continue reading, whether they made it to the Quarterfinalists list or not, and others weren't my style, but they might be yours! The Books I've Sampled So Far:    After Moses by Michael F. Kane  This book starts off like a space-Western that takes place between v

Well, it's that time of year again where I look back at the books I read throughout the year and highlight the top books. Check out my past top books lists:  Top 5 Books I read in 2020 Top 3 Books I Read in 2019   Top 5 Books I Read in 2018   Top 3 Books I Read in 2017 This year has been an interesting reading year for me. I DNFd so many books that were actually well-written and somewhat interesting, but I just didn't feel in the mood for them at the time. This very moody reading had an interesting side-effect: I ended up reading so many books this year that I absolutely loved. So this year's list is going to be longer than usual!  Without further ado, I give you my list of the best books I read this year. Books that I loved and would highly recommend. In no particular order:  Heartscale by Lola Ford   Genre: Epic Fantasy  My Rating: 5 Stars  Heartscale is an excellent book exploring the relationships between dragons and humans in various different kingdoms.

Review: Pallas Lost by Jake Morrison

Image
Pallas Lost by Jake Morrison is a space-heist sci-fi story with excellent world-building. The first few chapters introduce several characters that eventually come together around the mystery of a mythical lost spaceship - Pallas. The way their stories came together was excellent and made for some great, entertaining reading. The author also did a wonderful job at slowly revealing the history, myths, and current politics of the human colonies on the various planets. Everything was revealed smoothly at the right time and it made the world (galaxy, I guess!) seem very real while maintaining the fast pace of the storytelling.  I want to know more about Pallas and the AI that started it all and the politics of the corporations that rule these planets so the book definitely did the job of the first in series quite well, while still telling a complete enough story of this part of the adventure.  I only had a couple of very minor issues with the book. First of all, Eliot's intro scene wher
