Book Reviews
Reviews of things I've read.•Back to Reviews Page
The Ministry for the Future • Kim Stanley Robinson • I enjoyed this book when I read it, because they captured the climate change disaster headed our way. What they didn't foresee, however, is just how insane governments all over the world would go before we even get that far. Not dystopian enough after all. • Liked It
The Silo Series Collection • One of the best dystopian series ever written. Kind of hard to read in early 2025 though. • Loved It!
The Vanished Birds • 2020 • Simon Jiminez • A very unique sci-fi and somewhat haunting story of individualism, loyalty, corruption, and the greed of corporate power. • Loved It!
Tracers in the Dark • Andy Greenberg • Truly anonymous finance is the wet dream of the libertarian crypto bros, but it's a lie. Turns out logging everything is actually just like logging everything. Tons of wild and wacky fun. • Loved It!
Virtual Light • 1993 • William Gibson • A very good book, imaginative and hopefully not prophetic. The first of a series that works together better as the sum of its parts, but individually, this one is a good read. • Liked It
When the Moon Hits Your Eye • 2025 • John Scalzi This is what should be called a silly, maybe even dumb, book. But it isn't. It's fun. And it manages to make a few relevant points about humanity along the way. • Loved It!
