A beautiful, heart-breaking, and hopeful book.

The Steerswoman
Recommended by
kevin
An amazing fantasy tale that slowly unfolds to reveal a surprising twist.
At first, all seems familiar. You recognise the world of wizards and the ranger-like steerswomen. But, just like the steerswomen themselves, the more you learn, the more sense you begin to make of this world. Something isn't quite right.
Rosemary Kirstein has me hooked! I've already started the next book in the series.
Cure: Book One in the Strandville Zombie Series
Recommended by
weaver
I admit this was my first time reading a zombie book. The zombie genre hasn't always been my favorite in film and television, so I wasn't keen on reading a zombie book. But Frisch has a medical background and that made this book very interesting, as it revolved around a hospital. Very enjoyable, my only regret was that I didn't immediately read the next book so now I have to re-read it. :)
The Waterborne Blade
Recommended by
kevin
What a fantastic book!
Loved every minute, there's never a lag, and the characters are full, interesting, and complicated.
Now that some secrets have been revealed, the ante has upped, and things or GOING OFF!
Immediately started the sequel.
The Healers' Home
Recommended by
kevin
Another beautiful read by S.E. Robertson!
I'm really enjoying this slice-of-life fantasy genre I've only just learned about. The Healers' Home gives us a more stable setting, some new drama as past-acquaintances re-appear, and work to do as Agna and Keifon try and fit in to their new lives.
Family expectations, awkward commitments and trying relationships flesh out this wonderful book.
Fantasy & Science Fiction, September/October 2019
Recommended by
sohkamyung
A better than average 70th anniversary issue of the magazine with an unusual fairy tale by Kelly Link, a tale of media destruction by Paolo Bacigalupi, a funny twist on eastern martial arts by Y.M. Pang and other interesting tales by Ken Liu, Esther Friesner and Gardner Dozois.
INTERZONE #278 (NOV-DEC 2018)
Recommended by
sohkamyung
A not very interesting issue of Interzone, mainly because the stories appear to be on the theme of conflicts (mainly military related) and not of much interest to me. Natalia Theodoridou's story about unusual genetically engineered soldiers is probably the most interesting.
The Queen of Ieflaria

sapphiction
I unintentionally binged this awesome fantasy. This book is was nearly impossible to put down, but I had to eat every now and then. Such a fun read!
I love the world-building, the dialogue, the characters, and pretty much everything about this book.
I can't wait for the sequel! I'm reading it next. Errr, I'll probably binge it too...
Fantasy & Science Fiction, May/June 2019

An above average issue. An interesting mix of SF (Lavie Tidhar), Fantasy (Kelly Barnhill, Matthew Hughes) and Horror (Pip Coen, Rebecca Campbell) with a standout story by David Gullen.
