Space, yes. Wookies, no.


A blog about all things science fiction and fantasy related.

ABOUT ME:
The first science fiction book I read was "The Ship Who Sang" by Anne McCaffrey when I was 14. I was hooked. I love hard science fiction and fantasy books, TV and movies. I have read The Lord of the Rings many times; I love everything by Tad Williams, especially the Dragonbone Chair series. I also love Larry Niven, Jerry Pournelle and the "Killer B's": Bear, Benford and Bova (I'll add Brin). I have too many favorites to list them all; I'll be adding posts about them regularly.

I enjoyed The Night Angel trilogy so much, that I moved right on to read The Black Brism - book one of Brent Weeks’ new Lightbringer series.  Very creative and wonderful!

I’ve always loved treehouses.  This is the “extreme” version.  Picture yourself in this landscape!

I’m a Harry Potter geek.  I took this photo before the Deathly Hallows movies came out.  The Today Show was live at a preview of Universal Studios World of Harry Potter, so I lined up my movies in front of the TV, and presto — instant geek!
