At All Costs (Honor Harrington) 96 reviews David Weber
Baen, 2007
Starts Slow, but Ends with a Bang
+ Outstanding + Harrington FTW!

At All Costs picks up where War of Honor left off - ...

Baen, 2007
Fantastic! Thrilling!
+ Part 2 of ? isnt always fast paced... + Weber does it again!!!!
I love, love, love that David Weber is a man who obviously loves strong women, because he has created Alicia DeVries as another outstanding, waaaay atop the nearly unscalable peak of super women in the vein of Honor Harrington, a character that I didn't think could be surpassed EVER by any author, ...

If you're a fan of 40K, especially the backstory to pivotal events in the history of the Imperium, then you're probably already immersed in this series.

The Quantum Connection (Warp Speed) 21 reviews Travis Taylor

A good Sci-Fi read with a heart!
+ A recommended pick for prior fans + This puerule SF reader loved it.

While browsing for a few books to read during my beach trip, I came upon this green paperback book, only one left- always a good sign I thought. I always enjoy science fiction but had never read any by this author. A few pages read sold me on the story, and I was not dissapointed. This story ...

Venus and Mars are habitable, that's the basis for S. M. Stirling's Lords of Creation series. And they're exactly like what the pulp fiction and Golden Age Writers wrote.
The Sky People starts off in a Soviet bunker in Kazakhstan as their probe lands on Venus and the US probe lands on Mars. What ...
