  1. Critical Mass, Sensational “MultiReal” Review  • 
    Dom D'Ammassa, science fiction reviewer par excellence, has given "MultiReal" an excellent review over at the Critical Mass website.
  2. More Newfound Reviews  • 
    After seeing the rush of new reviews for "Infoquake," I decided to do a round of vanity Googling and found several more that I had been unaware of.
  3. “Infoquake” Reviewed on Fast Forward  • 
    No, really, seriously. I plan to post more substantial blog posts soon. And have a new redesign. I swear. But in the meantime… Fast Forward, the local cable TV show devoted to science fiction based in the Washington, DC area, has given Infoquake a glowing review. The review by Colleen Cahill is not posted on the [...]
  4. Grasping for the Wind Praises “Infoquake”  • 
    I’m putting the finishing touches on my website redesigns, and I’ve been enjoying the scenery in Sedona, Arizona, which is why I haven’t been posting much here lately. But here’s one nice quick bit of news… the Grasping for the Wind Science Fiction and Fantasy Reviews blog has posted a rave review for Infoquake: David Louis [...]
  5. Wikipedia Page and Guardian Review  • 
    Two nice pieces of recognition to go along with my Campbell nomination… From the old media side of things, the renowned U.K. newspaper The Guardian reviewed The Solaris Book of New Science Fiction, Volume 2, and gave a nice little shout out to my story “Mathralon.” It’s a capsule review, but I’m told it was very [...]
  6. William Gibson’s “Spook Country”  • 
    William Gibson has said many times in interviews that he knew very little about computers when he wrote his groundbreaking, genre-spawning novel Neuromancer. And yet somehow, all the way back in 1984 he managed to not only anticipate things like Internet culture and wetware, but to understand them better than many of us do even [...]
  7. Behold, the New ISP  • 
    If you're reading this article, then that means that you're now viewing my blog at its new home of Bluehost.com. I've taken the opportunity of moving the blog to make a number of changes.
  8. New “Infoquake” Reviews and PhilCon Appearance  • 
    Here are links to a few recent reviews of "Infoquake," as well as my upcoming PhilCon schedule.
  9. “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows”  • 
    So the Harry Potter series is over, and I was pretty much right in my predictions. How good was the final book? I'd say "Deathly Hallows" is the third best in the series, behind "Order of the Phoenix" and "Prisoner of Azkaban."
  10. Revisiting Middle Earth: “Unfinished Tales”  • 
    There's something both satisfying and frustrating about "Unfinished Tales," a posthumous collection of J.R.R. Tolkien fetishism. You get JRRT at his most didactic, listing chronologies of imaginary kingships as if he were tracing the lineage of Jesus. You get Christopher Tolkien at his most pompous, pointing out all of the petty differences between versions of his father's stories in lots of dry footnotes.
