Dweller on the Threshold
Recommended by
kevin
Another stunning thriller from Skyla Dawn Cameron.
Personal, gritty, heart-wrenching. Everything you'd expect from the author.
Cameron wraps her stories in a familiar, 'cosy' skin that she peels away page by page to reveal the monster beneath. Her biographical approach
What's in the house? Only what you take with you.
Oh, and Fuck Greg!
INTERZONE #284 (NOV-DEC 2019)
Recommended by
sohkamyung
An okay issue of Interzone, with the more interesting stories by Joanna Berry, David Tallerman and Tim Chawaga.
Glitch Rain
Recommended by

Really enjoyed this novella, like early Gibson but with contemporary themes as source material. Drones, social media, self driving cars, AI, etc,....
Hopefully there's more to come.
Coeur d'Alene Waters
Recommended by
kevin
Filled with flawed characters, a corrupt police force, bought and manipulated by a wealthy local family; it's a rich background to the main tale of redemption, coming to terms and moving on.
Slow in parts, it is however, a worthwhile read in itself, serving as an insight into the mining communities of the region and their demise as a local industry and employer.
Anne of Green Gables
Recommended by
kevin
What an absolutely lovely, fun, and extremely well-written book!
The funniest story I've read in years, and with such heart.
The descriptions of the natural world surrounding Anne are... sublime. Lucy Montgomery's writing should be taught as the pinnacle of its particular kind of author/narrator storytelling.
Origin Complex
Recommended by
kevin
This is the most stunning science fiction novel I've read in years. To see such scope and grandeur in an independent title makes my heart sing!
You'll come for the mechs and ancient alien horrors, but you'll stay for the archaeology and one of the best robot-human buddy pairings since Iain M. Banks' Culture series.
The Chronicles of Master Li and Number Ten Ox
Recommended by
sohkamyung
A wonderful collection of three novels of a “China that never was”, featuring the narrator, Number Ten Ox, and Li Kao, an ancient sage and scholar with “a slight flaw in his character”.

Between the Scanlines - Issue 1
Recommended by
kevin
I love a good zine! And Between the Scanlines hits the sweet spot for me; not too long that it stretches each issue, yet filled with plenty of retro gaming info.
Sasha and Kit are doing amazing work here. Buy as many issues as you can, and fill your eyes with gaming goodness with a lovely helping of personality and passion!
Outermen
Recommended by
kevin
Amazingly-written, weird, claustrophobic, space, alternate Earth, horror story from a brilliant author who consistently nails it!
A tale of the Outside, what's beyond and, ultimately, fear of what may or may not be there. If there is something, stay hidden! If there isn't anything but a vast void, then stay home, be nice, don't explore, we're alone...
A story about our culture.
