Long Way to a Small Angry Planet This is a rare Sci-Fi book indeed. A long way to small angry planet is written by a former staffer for the Marysue.com. The book is unabashedly feminist, sex positive, inclusive and overall optimistic about the future. It’s not heavy on plot but rather bounces from one small adventure to another resulting in character development but not much else. The Wayfarer is a boring ship, it creates wormholes for faster space travel. The crew is tasked with opening […]
People really are like houses with vast rooms and tiny windows
This book is a goddamned delight, and everyone should read it. The end. No, just kidding.

And that’s saying something because while there aren’t nearly as many books on the subject as […]
Don’t let the colors fool you
ODY-C is based on Homer’s Odyssey in a world where Zeus has killed off most of the men. ODY-C is a genderbent interpretation that’s completely warped out of its own mind in a psychedelic sci-fi god-ruled outer space. I mean the whole thing is nuts. Crazy colors, and sexual innuendos all over the place; think women breaking down doors with giant phallos’ and vagina-like spaceships. But don’t let the colors fool you. This is not an explosion of a book, it’s a slow, heavy journey. […]
