Although I've always considered Tom Baker "my" Doctor Who, I've grown very fond of Sylvester McCoy, the seventh doctor, in recent years. His nemesis, the Rani, is my favorite Whovian villain and his companion Mel reminds me of a friend of my youth, Beth Kibler. #doctorwho #doctorwhoepisodes #classictv #classictelevision #scifi #sciencefiction #classicsciencefiction #classicscifi #vintagesciencefiction #vintagescifi #sylvestermccoy #tombaker #britishtv #britishtelevision #englishtv

I shifted to Monday-start weeks this month, which was fine. I also switched to midnight-start days, which wasn't. I'm going back to 8am starts, since half of my reading is done after midnight, and I sometimes forget that I must get a story done before midnight to fit the calendar.

[1] A reply to this post repeats brief descriptions of the novels. For descriptions of the shorter tales, see the weekly posts. Most short stories this month come from single-author collections (Paul Ernst, Rog Phillips, John Wyndham) or multi-author anthologies:

New Adventures in Space Opera - Jonathan Strahan, ed.
Legends of Science Fiction: 1950 - Christopher Broschell, ed.

[2] This category is not likely to ever get high, but zero annoys me, so for next month I dug up something that proclaims it's a novella on the cover. Though the middle story in the trilogy is half again as long, and the finale is more than twice that.

A #vintageSciFi question: there are lots of plots where evil or misguided AI that controls everything runs amok (HAL) or not (COLOSSUS), but the #IvanTors film Gog (1954) is the earliest I know where a perfectly fine AI master-controller gets hijacked by code-injection from the real enemy; this happens again a decade later in Godzilla vs Megalon, but are there any earlier master-AI takeover films, books or short stories?

(fwiw, any PhD who names his bots Gog and Magog should expect trouble)

A #vintageSciFi question: there are lots of plots where evil or misguided AI that controls everything runs amok (HAL) or not (COLOSSUS), but the #IvanTors film Gog (1954) is the earliest I know where a perfectly fine AI master-controller gets hijacked by code-injection from the real enemy; this happens again a decade later in Godzilla vs Megalon, but are there any earlier master-AI takeover films, books or short stories?

(fwiw, any PhD who names his bots Gog and Magog should expect trouble)

The one review chides it as derivative, but I don't agree. I don't think I could praise this movie enough, and who am I to judge what space-suit fashions aliens might choose, to each his own, I always say!

Hollow Earth Tales, a collection of sci-fi stories written from 1909 to 1939 dealing with the idea of a hollow earth or undiscovered civilisations deep beneath the Earth. The stories are interestingly varied, often outrageous and generally fun.

The Space Merchants, a 1953 sci-fi novel by Frederik Pohl and C.M. Kornbluth. One of the great dystopian novels, about a future world controlled by huge corporations. They control the government. The most powerful are the advertising agencies.

I love the subtle chaos in this Rosey Cricket ( https://www.roseycricket.com ) D20! I have been designing some retro-future stuff for another project (forthcoming) and, was inspired to make this quick mini-reliquary for it.
