Angles of Attack
If you have any hankering for good old hard-shell science fiction, then if you haven't started on Marko's series, why the frell not?
Keep yerselves amused. I'm busy enjoying this one. Hell, yeah!
UPDATE: Finished it. Marko can write. Keeping a tale coherent through a thousand pages of print is no small feat. And he's not done, for he's writing #4, "Chains of Command".
I think that in all of that, I only noticed one little detail which had me scratching my head and going "huh?". Which is pretty damn amazing, considering that I've read some decent SF that couldn't get through a chapter without wondering "WTF".
Unhinge your wallets and buy the books. I'll give you my word-- if you don't like the books, then you'll have no trouble finding someone who will.

If you're one of the Covidiots who believe that COVID-19 is "just the flu",
that the 2020 election was stolen, or
especially if you supported the 1/6/21 insurrection,
leave now.

COMMENT MODERATION IS IN EFFECT UFN. This means that if you are an insulting dick, nobody will ever see it.
Seconded!
ReplyDeleteYou may enjoy the Expanse series by James S.A. Corey. I'm in the middle of the third, with a fourth already on my Kindle.
ReplyDeletePretty hard SF with good characters. The world of the series is so open-ended, he won't be tapped out for ideas for a dozen books at least.
I'm reading it, it's loaded on my phone for those waits at the doc office. Marko sure tells a good story. I'm about a 1/3 of the way through and I'm already looking forward to the fourth one.
