The Emerald City Comic Con in Seattle was on March 2-5 ! Once again Ron received a press pass and was able check out the events in the new Seattle Convention Center Summit Building. Since it is a brand new building it was finally great to have all events in one place. Ron was able to see some Main Stage events including the Scream Reunion Panel with Neve Campbell, Skeet Ulrich, Matthew Lillard and Jamie Kennedy. He was also able to attend the Fantasy vs Science Fiction Panel with stellar authors such as Sylvain Neuvel (author of the acclaimed Themis Files and Take Them to the Stars trilogies), Delilah S. Dawson (recent Bram Stoker nominee for Camp Scare, the acclaimed book The Violence, Star Wars novels, The Blud Series), John Jackson Miller (amazing author of both Star Trek and Star Wars novels. His latest is Star Trek Strange New Worlds: The High Country), and the legendary Terry Brooks (author of The Shannara Chronicles, and one of the most important fantasy writers ever). The panel was hosted by Shawn Speakman (author of The King-Killing Queen). After the panel Ron was finally able to meet frequent guest on the Wrath of the iOtians podcast, and the most interesting man in science fiction, Sylvain Neuvel! They chatted about his experience at ECCC and his new novel For the First Time, Again (Book 3 of the Take Them to the Stars trilogy).Linkshttps://www.emeraldcitycomiccon.com/https://terrybrooks.net/https://www.whimsydark.com/ (Delilah S.

Victoria Wieck is the epitome of the rags to riches American dream story. She immigrated from South Korea to America with her parents with only thirty dollars and has built a multi-million-dollar business with over $500 million in retail sales. After a series of corporate jobs, Victoria started her own company in 1989 on a shoestring budget to spend more time with her family. Victoria is the host of the popular podcast, Million Dollar Passion, a show dedicated to helping others turn their passion into profits. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s7-i2VYSEuw&t=2sDavid Marion and Dana Golden are the coauthors of Addiction Rescue; The NO-BS Guide to Recovery and are nationally known advocates for those struggling with Substance Use Disorder and their families. David lived through multiple addictions including opioids and gambling and lost everything from his family to his multi-million dollar brokerage firm to five years of his life in federal prison all due his addictions.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR Sylvain Neuvel is a Canadian science fiction writer, known as the author of The Themis Files. He was born in Quebec City and raised in the suburb of L'Ancienne-Lorette. Neuvel was educated at the University of Montréal and the University of Chicago, and runs his own professional translation agency. ABOUT THE BOOK - UNTIL THE LAST OF ME: Take Them To the Stars (Book 2) The First Rule is the most important: Always run, never fight. For generations, Mia's family has shaped human history to push them to the stars. The year is 1968 and she is on the cusp of destiny, poised to launch the first humans into space. But she cannot take them to the stars, not quite yet. Her adversary is at her heels, the future of the planet at stake, and obeying the First Rule is no longer an option. For the first time in one-hundred generations, Mia's family will have to choose to stand their ground, risking not only their bloodline, but the future of the human race. A darkly satirical thriller, as seen through the eyes of the women who sacrifice all to make progress possible and the men who are determined to stop them. Always run, never fight. Preserve the knowledge. Survive at all cost. Take them to the stars.

Read the book first and then join me and a special guest as we discuss what we thought of it! "Sleeping Giants" by Sylvain Neuvel - Goodreads - Amazon
After a brief hiatus - they got caught in a time eddy - Andy and Alex return to tackle Andy's favourite story of all time: Pyramids of Mars. It's a story they first watched at a chimney sweep's house in North Northumberland in the mid-Eighties (the chimney sweep was one of the few villagers with a video player!). Andy feels Pyramids is part of his very being and is regularly reduced to just making noises that express his love for the story while Alex muses that between them they must have watched it over a 100 times! Along the way Andy tells the story of what happened to him in the Tomb of Tuthmosis III, remembers organ music at Manopticon 1994, and details what 'isomorphic controls' refers to in his house. Alex meanwhile is reminded of the work of Sylvain Neuvel, recalls buying canopic jars from China, and explains how she completely identifies with Sutekh's fury while trying to crochet! The pair also share their fear of free-flowing jazz and agree that Horus' puzzles are a bit shit. They also ask whether this adventure should really be called Pyramid of Mars singular. Controversial! Musical stylings are provided by Fuzzbox and Minnie Ripperton. There's an unlikely pairing for you. Until next time...

Feedback The Neapolitan Quartet by Elena Ferrante (rec’d by Michelle) Questions 1. Hello! My daughter is 10 and in the 5th grade. She has recently discovered all the Marvel movies and has watched them over and over. Some of the movies are a little…intense…but the genie is well out of the bottle, so . (I can’t say I’m too sad, because I love them also.) She also loves the TV show Agents of SHIELD. She recently asked me if she could read some of the Marvel graphic novels/comics. I haven’t read a lot myself—some Thor, Vision, and Black Panther, all of which I enjoyed very much. I handed her my Black Panther (Ta-Nehisi Coates), but she had trouble understanding it. The Thor and Vision I have read are graphic in the sex and violence department, which I’m not super crazy about her reading. So… Are there any Marvel graphic novels appropriate for her age group? And before you rec Ms Marvel, she really wants to read about these MCU characters she has fallen in love with. A little about her: She’s a prolific reader of fantasy, with particular loves for Harry Potter and Percy Jackson. She is reading The List, the Unwanteds series, and the School of Good and Evil series right now (and she’s always re-reading Harry Potter!). Anything you can recommend would be awesome! Thanks! -Brooke 2. My name is Candice, & my partner and I are driving from San Antonio, TX to Colorado Springs, CO for our first vacation. We would like to listen to an audiobook or two along the way; however, we would like something that we can both enjoy. Extra points for a book set in Colorado or with a Road tripping theme, though it is not required. We are both POCs, so an author that reflects that would be ideal. Trigger warnings include any form of sexual assault/abuse. To help: He’s an avid D&D player, and his reading likes include “Gritty Fantasy, Speculative Sci-Fi, & Witty Comedy”. His favorite authors are Brandon Sanderson, Issac Asimov, William Gibson, & Douglas Adams. He also really enjoyed the book Captain Freedom. My all-time favorite series is the Wayward Children Novellas by Seanan McGuire (Beneath the Sugar Sky was my Fav) & the Wayfarer series by Becky Chambers is a close follow-up. I am currently reading How Long ‘til Black Future Month by N.K. Jemisin, and cannot get enough of it. Other Science Fiction & Fantasy books of note for me are Spinning Silver by Naomi Novik, Circe by Madeline Miller, Roses and Rot by Kat Howard, & The Themis Files by Sylvain Neuvel. I also really love atmospheric thrillers & horror novels (the creepier the better). And if it helps, we both loved the Netflix show Russian Doll. Thank you so much for your book recommendation assistance! -Candice 3. I am currently in a reading drought. I am hoping that you will help me find a new series to enjoy. I have enjoyed Still Alice (Lisa Genova), an ember in the ashes (sabba tahir), snow child (eowyn ivey), the giver (Louis Lowry) and the Tattooist Of auschwitz (heather morris). Please help me find something similar. The snow child and the giver are my two all time favorite books. Open to anything minus non-fiction Thank you. -Kelsey 4. I am traveling to West Virginia in July for two reasons: 1. To visit my husbands family and 2. To do research for a short story that I’m writing about a haunted coal mine. For both these reasons, I want to learn a lot more about West Virginian culture, life, history, etc. I have already read Storming Heaven by Denise Giardina and The Stories of Breece D’J Pancake by Breece D’J Pancake and enjoyed both very much. I am not super picky, especially for something like this where I’m just trying to absorb as much knowledge about the history, culture, and how it shaped the lives of those in the region. I look forward to your recommendations — thanks! -Daniela 5. Hi all, I’m looking for some read-alikes for my sister and me. For my sister, I’m looking for a good book to get her as a graduation present. Her all-time favorite book is Girl Reading by Katie Ward, and I’ve heard her complain on multiple occasions that she can’t find anything else quite like it—which I would love to change! She generally tends towards magical realism, feminist literature, and something-is-slightly-off type plots (like in Never Let You Go by Kazuo Ishiguro). For me, I have a serious book hangover from Isabel Allende’s Island Beneath the Sea. I originally picked it up because it deals with the Haitian Revolution (I lived in Haiti for a year) but was just blown away by the style and mood of it; I’ve never so wanted to describe a book as sensual! I liked how the time moved so fluidly and the view points shifted subtlety but distinctly and also smaller details, such as the masterful way that Allende handled the continued rape of the main character, a slave woman, both as off-hand in the way that it would be treated at the time and yet as absolutely brutal and despicable. It doesn’t have to be set in the same era/place or deal with the same themes of slavery, etc; I just want something to make me Feel like this book did! THANK YOU, -C 6. Hello ! I Need some audiobooks recommendations. Something I can easily follow while doing my housework after baby goes to bed. One audiobook I LOVED was “The Year of Yes” I Would really like something non fiction again. Maybe some humour or a memoir but Nothing too sad please. Thanks -Stef 7. Hello wonderful people, I’m trying to deal with lots of the things right now. My wife is traveling a lot and I miss her. So I’m escaping into the world of monsters. Specifically 1890s-1920s monster hunter goodness. I recently read S.A. Sidor’s fury from the tomb and the Beast of Nightfell Hall as well as the 4 books in Rick Yancey’s Monstrumolgist series and am looking for more in that vein. I love the arcane vocabulary in those books as well as the sense of the exoticism of travel in the days before tv/ the internet. I also ADORE the relationship between Will Henry and Pellinore in the Monstrumologist. It’s so tortured and full of love and yet so horrible and that poor kid. Monsters are great but what I really need is a sense of the mysterious as well as a horrible sociopathic nihilist narrator voice combined with the inevitable longing for love and human connection. But monsters too if you can manage it. Thank you very very much and I hope you and everybody else has a great day. -Justin Books Discussed Captain Marvel Vol 1: In Pursuit of Flight, written by Kelly Sue DeConnick, illustrated by Dexter Soy and Emma Rios Spidey Vol. 1: First Day by Robbie Thompson, illustrated by Nick Bradshaw Peter and Ned’s Ultimate Travel Journal by Preeti Chhibber, illustrated by George Clements and Stéphane Kardos (out June 4) The Prey of Gods by Nicky Drayden (TW mention of sexual assault) The City in the Middle of the Night by Charlie Jane Anders The Bear and the Nightingale by Katherine Arden The House of the Scorpion by Nancy Farmer Sugar Run by Mesha Maren (TW homophobia) What You Are Getting Wrong About Appalachia by Elizabeth Catte John Henry Days by Colson Whitehead The Mere Wife by Maria Dahvana Headley (TW PTSD) The Book of Night Women by Marlon James (many trigger warnings) My Life with Bob by Pamela Paul Is Everyone Hanging Out Without Me? by Mindy Kaling The Last Werewolf by Glen Duncan Borderline by Mishell Baker (tw: suicide, self-harm)
Not my genre, not my style, not the kind of book I’m interested in, or so I thought. But then I gave Sylvain Neuvel’s Sleeping Giants a try. And… WOW.
Science Fiction är en stor genre och det finns många starka åsikter om den. I det här avsnittet pratar Sissel och Åsa om Robinson Crusoe på Mars, jordens undergång och betydelsen av en handduk en specifik dag i oktober. Varför gillar man science fiction och varför finns det så starkt motstånd? I detta avsnitt intervjuas även författaren Sylvain Neuvel om sin bok Sovande Jättar och diskuterar robotar, hur det är att bli publicerad och varför han gillar science fiction. Månadens SMASH-hit är "Liftarens Guide Till Galaxen" en kultklassiker inom genren. Andra böcker vi pratar om är: Sparskolan av Johanna Kull och Nicklas Andersson, inläst av Johanna Kull, Sal av Mick Kitson inläst av Sharon Rooney, Aniara av Harry Martinsson, Liftarens guide till Galaxen av Douglas Adams, Long way to a small angry planet av Becky Chambers, inläst av Patricia Rodriguez, Ensam på Mars av Andy Weir, inläst av Björn Bengtsson, Robinson Crusoe av Robert Louis Stevenson inläst av Torsten Wahlund, Slutet av Mats Strandberg inläst av Hedda Stiernstedt och Christopher Lehmann, Tjänarinnans berättelse av Margaret Atwood inläst av Lo Kauppi, Färjan av Mats Strandberg inläst av Johan Ehn, Sovande jättar av Sylvain Neuvel inläst av Per Runhammar, The Colour of Magic av Terry Pratchett inläst av Tony Robinson, A brief history of time av Stephen Hawking inläst av John Sackville, Enders spel av Orson Scott Card inläst av Harald Leander, En julsaga av Charles Dickens inläst av Arne Weise, Öster om Eden av John Steinbeck inläst av Martin Halland.

Fleeting and unsubtle, Sylvain Neuvel's The Test is, appropriately, all about choices. What decisions will a person make when their future is on the line? How do those choices change under pressure, when the lives of others depend on them? And who are we to judge if those actions make someone good, make them worthy?
You’ve been asking for it, and now it’s here: our best books of 2018 list! We are the type of people who cannot pick our books until ALL the books have been finished for the year, so this is the soonest we could record!

We picked the cream of the crop to share with you, readers.
