Off and racing on Wicked Words for 2024.

And VERY much enjoying this pacey novel about a multiverse scientific expedition to study and preserve kaiju on an alternate Earth - with the wackiest biology you've ever read.

I was at an SF con where Scalzi did an audience-prompted world-building exercise in which we ended up with octogoats. These Kaiju are far stranger. But no spoilers.

Funny, snarky, Godzilla-laced romp. The perfect mood-lifter. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

In my mind, Scalzi is the spiritual heir to Ron Goulart and with every book I read is creating a as strong on hold on my aged heart as Goulart ever did on my young one. This rollicking tale of a kaiju NGO (think Save the Monsters instead of Save the Whales) packs more humor, wit, adventure, and pathos in its relatively short length than it has a right to.

Holy moly! I was not prepared for this book! It is amazing! There is no way to explain this book without giving away the surprise that awaits you. I‘ll just say this book has everything imaginable and unimaginable within its pages. Read it. You‘ll absolutely love it. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

When I was a kid, I watched Godzilla movies on Saturday afternoons. I have always had a fondness for these films. I am so excited to read the original novels translated by Shigeru Kayama!

Fun! Started strong but had a predictable end. To me, very much Jurassic Park for the current age, with better science than the JP movie and less developed bad guys than the JP book.
Jamie takes a job where she‘s told her advanced degree in Science Fiction literature will be an asset. She travels to an earth with nuclear powered Kaiju and works as a grunt. The Real Monster Question plays out and chaos must be averted.
3.5/5 fun and easy SciFi

This really is a pop song of a book! Had soo much fun reading this!
