Speculative Fiction Reviews

‘The Last Contract of Isako’ (2026) by Fonda Lee, narrated by Mary Robinette Kowal and Dillon Sickels 

‘Something of a Calling’ (2026) by Zoje Stage, narrated by Jenn Lee – a remarkable piece of speculative fiction

‘The Machine Stops’ (1909) by E. M. Forster – a prescient science fiction short story.

‘Time of the Cat’ (2023) by Tansy Rayner Roberts, narrated by Ciaran Saward – set aside at 30% but I may come back to it one day.

‘Three Days in April’ (2015) by Edward Ashton

‘Change of Command’ (1999) and ‘Against the Odds’ (2000) – The Serrano Legacy #6 and #7 by Elizabeth Moon – a satisfying close to an engaging Space Opera series.

‘The Uninvited’ (2012) by Liz Jensen

‘Descendant Machine’ (2023) Continuance #2 by Gareth L. Powell

‘Rules of Engagement’ (1998) – The Serrano Legacy #5 by Elizabeth Moon
