Review: King of the Storm, by BA Brock

by

I just finished reading an Advance Reading Copy of King of the Storm, the first novel from author BA Brock, which came out on Tuesday. Let me say first that I have known BA for about two years now – he is the reviewer for the Queer Sci Fi site, and I was privileged to read a bit of the novel in beta, when it was posted to our critique group. But reading pieces and reading the whole thing are two entirely different experiences. I now know how everything fits together! The book takes place in Greece, but just to … Read more

Great New Review for The Homecoming

by

Just got a great review for The Homecoming from Mike Bode: “It’s a short book, and the pacing is brisk. Coatsworth never lingers too long on any one scene or topic and has an admirable talent for description. It’s a good read for a long afternoon with an engaging bread crumb trail of clues to lead you to a satisfying explanation for the story.” Woo hoo!!!

Great New Review for My Story Avalon

by
QSF Avalon

BA Brock has posted a great review of my story Avalon, and for the first issue of the Mischief Corner Books Quarterly: A GREAT anthology, and the first volume of what I expect will be a successful quarterly magazine. The magazine features short LGBTQ+ works, and within that category, the genres are limitless. In this issue there was horror, literary fiction, humor, drama, and so much more. There was even art in the form of book covers, and interviews—something for everyone… Avalon by J. Scott Coatsworth. I’ve read nearly everything Coatsworth has written (I’m his number one fan, and I … Read more

Review: Lore & Logos, by Matthew P. Buscemi

by
Lore and Logos

I came to this book in kind of a round-about way. Matt is one of our newer folks in the Queer Sci Fi group, and he posted this one a few weeks ago on a Me Me Monday. The cover is soooo NOT sci fi – but there’s a reason for that – you’ll just have to read the Acknowledgement. We ended up talking a bit online, and he offered to send me a copy. Great, I thought, another eBook to throw on the stack. But Matt surprised me – he’s kind of old school, and really likes printed books … Read more

Review: Off World, by Jonah Bergan

by

I had the pleasure to receive an advance copy of Jonah Bergan’s new MM sci fi book Off World. The cover of the book is gorgeous – it immediately made me interested in reading the story. The image of the main character is mysterious and gorgeous, and the planetary background promises a lush sci fi adventure. The story doesn’t disappoint. Let me say up front that the book does include some semi graphic sex with a dominance theme. But one of the things I loved about it was that the sex was both secondary and integral to the science fiction … Read more

Five Star Review for “The Homecoming”!

by
Melanie Marshall Blog

Hey all… just got an amazing review for The Gomecoming from Melanie Marshall’s blog – thanks to Paul B.! An excerpt: This book clicks on just about every level. The heartbreak Aldiss feels at the loss of not only his home planet but his ex (even though he states there is nothing romantic between them anymore) is palpable. The hope of a new home world is quickly set back first by the crash landing and the dangers that caused but also with the troubles of Cat’s illness coming out of stasis. Add in the inter clan squabbles about what to … Read more

Two More Blog Tour Stops!

by
Lexi Ander

One for “The Homecoming” with the fabulous Lexi Ander: And the other a review of “Between the Lines by Molly Lolly: I enjoyed this story. I loved how Brad had to decide if he wanted to hear the true thoughts of people or not. It raises an interesting philosophical question as well. I liked how that decision was described in the story. I felt bad for Brad and how he was treated. At the same time, he stood up for himself and what he believes in. He didn’t just roll over and take it. I was glad Brad wound up … Read more

Four Diamond Review For The Homecoming

by
The Homecoming

Just got another great review for “The Homecoming”, this one from Exquisite Reviews: “It took me a couple of pages to get into this story and I think it was because it felt a bit choppy at times. I am not sure if the length played a part in that but the characters felt a little disconnected to me. As the story progressed I was super surprised at the turn it took, the characters came alive within the story. Even with the slow start it picked up quickly and provided a great story for it’s readers. The story was well … Read more

Two New Reviews for Between The Lines!

by

Doing my happy dance! Just got two new official reviews for “Between the Lines”. The first one is from 3 Chicks After Dark, and it’s a rave! …The medallion is a brilliant twist on a familiar trope, adding a paranormal edge to conventional elements. I was anxious to see what would happen each time Brad wraps his hand around it, and I found myself wondering what it would be like to truly see the thoughts of people around me. Would l like it? What would they be thinking? After seeing what happens in Between the Lines, I’ve pretty much decided … Read more
