Shut Up, Heathcliff. Review: Captain Vorpatril’s Alliance. By Lois McMaster Bujold. I’ll start with a caveat. Two caveats, actually. First: ignore this book’s awful cover. I promise this is not a novel about a sci-fi Playboy mansion. Second caveat: if you’re not familiar with Lois McMaster Bujold’s Vorkosigan books,. Captain Vorpatril’s Alliance. Captain Vorpatril’s Alliance. A Civil Campaign,. But this is our first book with Ivan as the hero. He’s usually being dragged into Miles’s crazi...That said, I ...

Review: On the Edge by Ilona Andrews « Shut Up, Heathcliff
https://shutupheathcliff.wordpress.com/2014/09/01/review-on-the-edge-by-ilona-andrews
Shut Up, Heathcliff. Review: On the Edge. In order to write this review, I am going to have to make an embarrassing confession. When I was in college, I went through a paranormal romance novel phase. Many of these books involved either sexy demon hunters. Who needed women to help them break their curses, or time travel and brooding Scottish lairds (which I think explains my inability to take. As seriously as Diana Gabaldon clearly wanted me to take it). All of this brings me to. On the Edge,. Is, without...

Review: Lock In by John Scalzi « Shut Up, Heathcliff
https://shutupheathcliff.wordpress.com/2015/02/23/review-lock-in-by-john-scalzi
Shut Up, Heathcliff. Five months have passed since my last review — yikes! The semester can really wreak havoc with those of us on academic schedules. But, on the bright side, I now have a fairly significant backlog of books that I can review for this blog. First up is an unreserved rave for John Scalzi’s. If you’d like to read a few minor spoilers before deciding if. Is for you, follow me past the jump. Much of the book focuses on the murder Chris is investigating, but. Actually has two different narrat...

Review: The Grendel Affair by Lisa Shearin « Shut Up, Heathcliff
https://shutupheathcliff.wordpress.com/2015/03/02/review-the-grendel-affair-by-lisa-shearin
Shut Up, Heathcliff. Review: The Grendel Affair. Which is why I love Mackenna Fraser, the main character in Lisa Shearin’s. That setup–hyper-competent guy, slightly helpless gal–made me a bit uneasy, but Mac doesn’t go the usual Everygal route of continually landing herself in danger and/or tripping over things to show how relatable she is. Instead, over the course of. If you’re looking for fun, light urban fantasy, this is your book. This is why I bailed on the Stephanie Plum series — I get that t...

Sir Terry Pratchett (1948-2015) « Shut Up, Heathcliff
https://shutupheathcliff.wordpress.com/2015/03/16/rip-terry-pratchett
Shut Up, Heathcliff. Sir Terry Pratchett (1948-2015). Like most devoted readers of fantasy, I was stunned and saddened to learn that Terry Pratchett passed away last week at the age of 66. Pratchett always seemed to be one of those authors who would be just as delightful in person as he was through the pages of his books. To quote many other Pratchett fans, how could you not admire someone who wore this t-shirt to conventions? Something Vimes had learned as a young guard drifted up from memory. If you.

Review: The Goblin Emperor by Katherine Addison « Shut Up, Heathcliff
https://shutupheathcliff.wordpress.com/2015/04/06/review-the-goblin-emperor-by-katherine-addison
Shut Up, Heathcliff. Review: The Goblin Emperor. So this year’s Hugo award nominations are out, and apparently they’re a wee bit controversial. There was a concerted effort to nominate works on a particular list. The list was compiled by folks who think last year’s Hugos. Nominated too many women and people of color. Ignored “real” sci-fi and fantasy in favor of weird literary stuff that no one really likes.). Is that very few people in the book are evil, or even cruel. Setheris’s disappointmen...And wea...
