Hugh Howey is on a small list of authors that I instant buy as soon as a new work is released. From mind bending science fiction like his novelette The Plagiarist, to post-apocalyptic adventure with heart in his Wool (Silo Saga) series and I, Zombie, Hugh has proven that he is more than just that […]
A mark of great science fiction is when its effects on the world are so subtle and misconstrued that few can actively recognize its impact. Roadside Picnic, by Arkady & Boris Strugatsky, has done just that for the past forty years. The mere fact that the brothers Strugatsky coined the term stalker speaks to their […]
Here’s my Top 10 from 2012, and for 2013, I’m cutting it to a top 5. I’m not one of those 100+ books a year readers. I only read like 35 books last year, but I only finish about one in ten that I start, some going as far as sixty seventy percent before putting […]

Kim kindly agreed to the interview which follows. John: You said in the acknowledgements at the end of your most recent novel, Johnny Alucard, that episodes had previously been released “disguised as […]
It is with my utmost pleasure to present this interview with the author who introduced me to zombie fiction, J.L. Bourne. I was going to wait until the new year to post this, but his naval officer experience and influence to his novels means many of his fans are in the military. Since some of […]

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from us at Adventures in Scifi Publishing. I’ll make another post in the New Year about our podcast and website plans for 2014, but for now, I thought I’d share my entry into Staffer’s Book Review Book Tree Contest. The contest is hosted by Angry Robot Books, Justin Landon […]
This cover sold me, appealing to my love of post-apocalyptic stories. Day One, by Nate Kenyon, begins with a man’s nightmare of losing his son to some unstoppable force, which summarizes the book’s theme well. I need to care about my main character and relate to their desires, and Kenyon’s John Hawke does both very […]
