About the Book When Earth is invaded by telepathic aliens, humanity responds by creating the defenders. They are the perfect warriors–seventeen feet tall, knowing and loving nothing but war, their minds closed to the aliens. The question is, what do you do with millions of genetically-engineered warriors once the war is won? A novel of…

Stephanie Saulter really needs no introduction. The woman absolutely blew my mind with Gemsigns, a book I’m still thinking about and can’t wait to re-read (and also packed full of incredibly important subjects). I’m just about dying to get my hands on Binary, the second book in that series. When I asked if she’d be…

Wow. Another crazy week for Bookworm Blues. First things first, I have another giveaway going. Click here to find out what it’s all about and how to enter. My interview with Elizabeth Bear on the Adventures in SciFi Publishing podcast went live. Click here to listen. Special Needs in Strange Worlds has a fantastic guest…

First things first, today is a crazy busy day in the world of all things bookish for me. So, before I get onto the real meat of this post, let me show you a few other things that are going on today. 1. I was lucky enough to get the opportunity to interview one of…

About the Book A vividly imagined fantasy of court intrigue and dark magics in a steampunk-inflected world, by a brilliant young talent. The youngest, half-goblin son of the Emperor has lived his entire life in exile, distant from the Imperial Court and the deadly intrigue that suffuses it. But when his father and three sons…

About the Book When emotions are erased from the world, creating a civilization of mindless drones, only those with fury can survive. On the same day each year Josephine Luquet wakes naked, shivering and covered in blood that is not her own. Under the cold gaze of the blood moon she is someone else entirely,…

This week has been absolutely insane. I’m working six days straight (one more day… one more day…. one more day….) AND I had my first deadline (which I hit… barely…) for Shattered Worlds. I submitted my bit in its roughest form, but that’s okay. At least I did it, and I still have time to…

A little while ago, I read Afterparty and lost my mind about how amazing it is. Daryl Gregory is a true peach. He is incredibly busy, and even after I told him that I might happen to be the worst interviewer on the face of the planet, he let me bug him with some questions…

I really almost hate writing think pieces because I always feel like an idiot when I do. However, sometimes a thought brews in my brain and I have to “write it out” to see where it goes. This post is a result of that.  — Recently I’ve been reading a rather shocking number of books…

Every year this happens. The short list is announced and I go into hiding for a few weeks until the hubbub dies down. Every year there is a controversy, and every year there are long, long discussions about why so-and-so is on there (what an asshole) and so-and-so isn’t (who is the absolute ideal of…
