About the Book Psychologist Elizabeth Cole prepared for the worst when she accepted a job on a newly discovered world—a world where every colonist is tethered to an alien who manifests in the form of a dead loved one. But she never expected she’d struggle with the requirement to shun these “ghosts.” She never expected to…

All Men of Genius was a book that really stuck with me, in part because I enjoyed it so much. Also because I really respected Rosen’s new take on a period in history that has been written about again….and again…. and again. I thought, when I read his book, that I’d love to interview him….

I am not one of those website owners who is good at discussing opinions. I don’t think I’ve ever waxed poetic about the future of speculative fiction or (insert cataclysmic, genre specific topic here). I’m not good at it. That, and I enjoy reading books more than pondering my navel. Anyway, Bastard Books asked me…

I was supposed to post the winner of this giveaway yesterday, but I suck at being timely these days so I’m announcing this one a little late. I had a lot of interest in my giveaway, and I sincerely thank everyone who stopped by my humble corner of the interwebs to enter the contest. Unfortunately,…

The superheroes…

Every SFF fan worth his shirt has heard of Timothy Zahn – the incredible Hugo Award winner. The man who pumps out high quality novels and has droves of fans. Yeah, you know exactly who I’m talking about. And you can probably understand why Triumph Over Tragedy is beyond thrilled to welcome him (and his…

About the Book It is, truly, provably, the End Days for the Gzilt civilization. An ancient people, they helped set up the Culture ten thousand years earlier and were very nearly one of its founding societies, deciding not to join only at the last moment. Now they’ve made the collective decision to follow the well-trodden…

I’m taking a slight detour from my day dedicated to Iain M. Banks to announce another wonderful author joining the ranks of Triumph Over Tragedy. Unfortunately I haven’t read any of Buckell’s books yet (though I plan on changing that) and all I know is that he grew up on a houseboat (which I learned…
