Electric Jungle — James K. Pratt

By 5t4n5

Electric Jungle -- James K. PrattA delightful little collection of short stories that i got for free in one of those BookFunnel promotions.

At the time of writing this — March 2020 — James was still giving this away in BookFunnel promotions, so if you want a copy then maybe email James and ask nicely.   It’s definitely worth sending an email, just tell him you were reading this and i told you to.   LOL

Obsidian Worlds — Jason Werbeloff

By 5t4n5

Obsidian Worlds -- Jason WerbeloffI only recently discovered Jason’s writing and i have to say that i’m really enjoying it.

Obsidian Worlds is a whole book full of short stories about random sci-fi things which i chose to read as inbetweenies between chapters of How Emotions Are Made.   It worked out really well giving nice little breaks to allow Lisa’s cutting edge science to percolate through my synapses, although, unfortunately, there aren’t enough shorts in this collection to cover all the chapters in Lisa’s book.   Ho hum, i’ll just have to find some other shorts to read.

So yeah, Jason has a Phd in philosophy and i think that kinda adds a certain flavour to Jason’s sci-fi, and i do like philosophers who chose to write stories instead of academic papers — much more fun for all of us.

Other philosophers who write stories that i recommend would be Aldous Huxley and Pascal Mercier.

The Cryo Killer
Falling for Q46F

The Photons in the Cheese Are Lost
The Time-Traveling Chicken Sexer
