Book twenty-one of 2018: Underworld: Evolution, by Greg Cox. ⭐️⭐️⭐️
Books
I read…a lot. Here’s where I ramble about books and printed media.
Me, surveying my #StarTrek book collection: “Yeah, I’m a little bit of a geek”.
My wife: “No….”
Me: “…I know where this is going.”
(Every shelf is double-stacked; most of those are #TOS novels. Please forgive the weird distortion from the pano camera mode.)

There’s no such thing as too many books…until you have to move them all. Oof. Ow.
But! After a full day of emptying out one storage unit, packing stuff into a U-Haul, driving over the mountains, and packing half (non-books) into a new smaller storage unit and half (books) home, we are now finally entirely done with Ellensburg!
Happydancing will commence when we have the energy to move again.
Book twenty of 2018: Underworld, by Greg Cox. ⭐️⭐️⭐️
The book After Man: A Zoology of the Future imagines what animals might look like if humans went extinct, and absolutely captivated me when I was a kid. Neat to see a new edition is being released. Recommended!
Book nineteen of 2018: Crossplay, by Niki Smith. ⭐️⭐️⭐️
Book eighteen of 2018: Cormorant Run, by Lilith Saintcrow. ⭐️⭐️
Here’s an interesting looking project on Kickstarter: Unlocking the Magic: A Fantasy Anthology. “Mental illness isn’t magical. Back these stories that take an honest look at mental illness and portray it compassionately in fantasy.”
Book seventeen of 2018: Deadhouse Landing, by Ian C. Esslemont. ⭐️⭐️
Not my preferred genre, but this is neat: How romance novels are getting a makeover in the Trump era. “MacLean said she realized the book she was writing ‘had 275 pages of a character who probably would have voted for Donald Trump,’ so she deleted the entire manuscript.”
