Books & Bone

Fun story, great details, and some really nice writing.

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.

Interzone 294

Recommended by
sohkamyung
A better than average first issue of Interzone under new management. Some interesting stories here by J.F. Sebastian, Kat Clay, Daniel Bennett and a possible non-fiction piece by Liviu Surugiu.

Nonplayer #2

Recommended by
kevin
As wonderful and entrancing as the first issue.
This beautifully illustrated second comic from Nate Simpson, opens up the world, broadens the scope and sets up some interesting conflict.
I can't wait for the third in the series. This is a story to get lost in.
Well done Nate and Image Comics.
