Michael Reads Percy Jackson: The Titan’s Curse – Ch 17
In which Luke experiences rapid deceleration trauma!
Finally I’ve gotten a chance to read more Percy Jackson! Aside from other things I’ve been busy with on the blog, and novel-writing, my laptop went on its own little adventure back to the ASUS repair center because it suddenly no longer believed it had a hard drive or operating system. It was ever so much fun! But enough of that, because we’ve got…
A climactic battle, an impossible-to-survive fall, and I feel silly for not having realized something long before now. But hey, watching me feel silly is part of the fun, isn’t it? So let’s take a look at chapter 17 for Michael Reads Percy Jackson: The Titan’s Curse…
I Put on a Few Million Extra Pounds
Totem Animals and the Doublesight Novels
Hi everyone! I’ve got a special guest post for you today. My fellow author Terry Persun’s new fantasy novel Gargoyle, the 4th book in his Doublesight series, has recently been published by Booktrope, and I’m pleased to have him here today to tell you about his Doublesight series, and the shape shifters therein. Take it away, Terry! (And be sure to check out the Rafflecopter at the end for a chance to win some free books!)
Totem Animals and the Doublesight Novels
I read a lot. So when I come up with an idea, I try to separate my idea from what everyone else appears to be doing. This isn’t always easy, but it’s worth the effort every time. So when I started to play around with the idea for my Doublesight series, I wanted my shape shifters to be unique. [Read more…]
Book Review: The Primary Protocol
My rating: ★★★★☆ (4 out of 5)
J.M. Guillen’s The Primary Protocol wastes no time in plunging us back into his eldrich world of technologically augmented agents waging a secret battle with Lovecraftian forces that threaten to overrun our rational realm. The cosmic horror of the Vyriim, introduced in Rationality Zero (the spawn point of this series), have threaded their nightmarish tentacles further into our world, seeking a beachhead, and as The Primary Protocol begins, we—and protagonist Michael Bishop—are already right in the thick of it.

Guest Geeks: Massimo Marino on Wormholes
Hello, geek-folk! It’s about time for another Guest Geeks post, and this time I’ve got someone here who’s going to give you a bit more science in your science fiction. His name is Massimo Marino, a fellow sci-fi author who’s got at least one up on me in that this guy has actually worked at CERN. You’ve probably heard of CERN: it’s where they’ve got the Large Hadron Collider, and aside from it being used to help create gods in Zeus Is Dead, they also use it in the real world to do actual science that’s even more interesting!
But Massimo’s here today to talk more about the science of a slightly different topic. I’ll let him take it from here… [Read more…]
Movie Review: Ant-Man
“What’s this? A movie review for ANTS?”
I wasn’t expecting much out of Ant-Man. I really wasn’t. Understand that this is coming from a guy who’s seen and enjoyed (to varying degrees) all of the Marvel cinematic universe, but who’s never really read comic books. After I saw Iron Man for the first time, a friend had to explain to me who the Avengers were, and he made mention of Thor. “The actual god Thor?” I asked. “Like, running around with a guy in an iron suit? How are they even on the same level?” I’d thought that a Thor movie couldn’t really work, to say nothing of the eventual team-up with everyone in the Avengers. [Read more…]
Michael Reads Percy Jackson: The Titan’s Curse – Ch 16
Out goes Mr. Moo, in comes Mr. Ladon.
So after my wanting to not go so long between chapters, I…went a long time between chapters. But it’s not my fault! I’ve been away at the Pacific Northwest Writers Association Conference for the past 4 days. Great conference. Exciting stuff that I can’t yet tell you about. But I didn’t have time to read Percy Jackson! But now, without further ado, let’s get to the 16th chapter in Michael Reads Percy Jackson: The Titan’s Curse…
