Centique
Translation State | Ann Leckie

Just serving you up more beach photos - i never get bored taking photos of this stuff!
I loved the Raddch series by Ann Leckie and now she sets us back in this universe with 3 new characters & we learn more about the Presger & other (human & non-human) civilisations that are not Raadchai. It feels a little Becky Chamber-ish in a “lets understand our differences” way - which i love. Its fascinating to get more insight into this complex universe ⬇️

Centique There are times when i lose track of minor characters (so many names of diplomats and who they represent!) but i just let that go and enjoy the ride. Just huge fun and i wolfed this down 😍 4w

Ruthiella Awesome ! I really need to finish the Radch trilogy but at this point feel I should re-read Ancillary Justice and Ancillary Sword first…it‘s been so long. 4w

This was a fun romp of a sci-fi road trip venture with a tacked on love story towards the end. A low pick because it‘s way too long for what it is - but I‘m not super duper mad about it. This book would make a good tv miniseries methinks. 😄

This second book in the Final Architecture series finds Idris helping the Parthenon to develop their own Intermediary program, while the Architects appear without warning to remake inhabited planets according to the aesthetic principles demanded by their unknown masters. The intricate, masterful world-building, vivid characters, and ratcheting tension made this an engaging and, as the end approached, riveting read.

TheSpineView I need to read this one! 1mo
Aimeesue Tchaikovsky‘s so good! 1mo

TieDyeDude Nice. I love movie scores. I'm not familiar with Z, but I know Theodorakis from Serpico and Zorba the Greek 1mo
The_Book_Ninja @TieDyeDude I only buy soundtrack albums if there‘s a track called “(the) Chase” on it? There‘s a groovy, psychedelic jam on there called Café Rock that‘s worth a listen too 1mo

1. Go to the Friends of the Library book sale with my sister, then fly to DC to attend AwesomeCon! (Also: finish the tagged book before I leave.)
2. Red Side Story, the sequel to Jasper Fforde's Shades of Grey. Seriously cannot wait for this one!
3. Science fiction forever! Or maybe I should say speculative fiction, to make it as all encompassing as possible.

Cupcake12 I don‘t think I‘ve ever read one SF book ever! Have a great week x 1mo
Decalino @Cupcake12 if you ever want to give it a try, I recommend Octavia Butler or Ursula K LeGuin! Hope you have a great week too 🙂 1mo

I was unsure about this book but it looked fun & didn‘t disappoint! For me it felt like a cross between Agent to the Stars & Galaxy Quest. SO! MUCH! FUN! A quick fun read! The narrator was perfect, it felt like an instant classic.

Space rabbits land during the commotion of WWII and go into hiding but they multiply like … rabbits & soon due to their growing numbers, they will be revealed, but how? HA!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️1/2

The second book in the Web Shifter's Library series, this SF novel has further adventures of lovable shapeshifter Esen and friends. Biologist Julie Czerneda is great at inventing interesting alien species.
