My next read is Grave Empire by Richard Swan. I'm a huge fan of his work right now. The first three books in this series were pretty fucking metal, with extremely memorable characters and a richly detailed world.

My short stories are prototypes - proofs of concept for insane ideas and compelling challenges. If my stories were steak ... they would be well-done - rare in a medium like scifi. https://inkican.com/smashwords-summer-scifi-sale-free-stories/ #scifi #summerreadinglist #readersofinstagram #booksbooksbooks

Finished the massive doorstop novel that is Brandon Sanderson's #WindAndTruth yesterday. It's the final book of the first #StormlightArchive arc.
I enjoyed it; not sure how I feel about how he left Roshar at the end, but it certainly sets up a ton of action and drama in the Cosmere.
That's 1 book down on the summer reading list. 15 more to go. https://www.nuketown.com/summer-reading-list-2025/

With the weather warming, it's time to start stocking up on summer reads. I write an action/adventure series called 'Expedition Inc.’ featuring a team of adventurers for hire.
As a fun extra I try to ground the stories in real places like an island off the west coast of Canada and Denver International Airport :)
Available where all fine ebooks are sold.

Finished The Long Tomorrow by Leigh Brackett. I enjoyed it, and it's easy to see how other, later post-apocalyptic fiction was inspired by it.
Next up: Machine Vendetta (The Prefect Dreyfus Emergencies, Book 3) by Alastair Reynolds #SummerReadingList #FallReadingList #Novels #Books

So far, I've read 14 of 19 books on my #SummerReadingList, which isn't too bad considering how much time I spent playing #Hades instead of reading :)
My next print #novel is The Long Tomorrow by Leigh Brackett (hat tip to @grueproof for that one).
My current #audiobook, which I'm winding down, is Iain Bank's Surface Detail (the penultimate book in #TheCulture series. #summerreading

I'm making steady progress on my #SummerReadingList
Just finished S.A. Barnes' Ghost Station, which is a creepy scifi horror novel set in an abandoned, extrasolar research station.
I've read 12 of the 19 books on my list and all three novellas.
Next up: Frank Herbert's Dune Messiah, which I haven't read since ... high school? Yeah, that sounds right.

After finishing the Silmarillion today, I will be moving on to a reread of the Poetic Edda. My take on the Silmarillion is that is equal parts brilliant and frustrating, but my understanding of LOTR has been substantially altered. As for the Poetic Edda, I haven't been through it since 2012.

I finished "Action Park: Fast Times, Wild Rides, and the Untold Story of America's Most Dangerous Amusement Park" - it was a great read, I'd go so far as to say it's a must-read if you grew up in northwestern New Jersey in the 1980s or early 1990s. #SummerReading #SummerReadingList

"The Crying of Lot 49" by Thomas Pynchon
"The Ambassadors" by Henry James
"Self-Reliance and Other Essays" by Ralph Waldo EmersonDon't ask me why I chose this list for myself. I just did.

Almost done rereading this; haven't opened it since the 90s and it holds up well with its satire of academia but also sincerity in dealing with an attraction/love that comes as a result of intellectual connections rather than merely physical.
In other words, it's Harlequin for sapiosexuals.

Halfway through the non-fiction book "Action Park: Fast Times, Wild Rides, and the Untold Story of America's Most Dangerous Amusement Park".
It's a great read, though it makes me realize I missed out on a lot of things at Action Park. Which, given how many ways there were to hurt yourself, was probably for the best.

I finished Alien: Cold Forge by Alex White.
It's a solid entry in the #Alien print fiction franchise. It takes place on a Weyland-Yutani black site, where scientists are experimenting with a variety of dangerous projects ... including weaponizing the #xenomorphs. It's a brutal book, and as is typical for the Alien universe, the most dangerous monsters are the humans. #SummerReading #SummerReadingList #Books #Novels #SciFi #Horror

Finished the first book on my #SummerReadingList - Station Eternity by @MurHerself
It's a cozy (well, up to a point) #scifi murder #mystery set on an alien space. Cool setting, fun characters, and a great payoff at novel's end.
