Abbott in Darkness – Book Review

December 31, 2022 by hpholo Leave a Comment

Never in my life did I think I’d enjoy a book about accounting adventures on a distant planet, but if anyone can change my mind, it’s D.J. Butler. In Abbott in Darkness, John Abbott is drowning in academic debt, but has a solid chance to pay it off through his new job with the interstellar […]

Into the Real – Book Review

October 26, 2022 by hpholo Leave a Comment

Into the Real Book Cover

I’ve been looking forward to this book since the moment I heard it described as Pokemon Go meets Monster Hunter—and by the standards both properties inspire in my brain, it does not disappoint. 😄 In John Ringo and Lydia Sherrer’s Into the Real, Lynn Raven is a shy couch potato of a teen who would […]

Aries’ Red Sky – Book Review

June 24, 2022 by hpholo Leave a Comment

Ok, I’ve gotta thank James Young for his patience, ‘cause he sent me an audio code for this book years ago and I’ve spent all that time and multiple listens trying to articulate a review for this thing. Aries’ Red Sky is a grand, galaxy-spanning take of interstellar politics, war, and the humans that are […]

Adventures in Co-Authoring with a Sci-Fi Legend: Origins – Act III: Collaborations

February 6, 2022 by holojacob Leave a Comment

The Gordian Protocol Book Cover

Catch up on Act II here! Act III: Collaborations Naturally, being an author (a nobody indie author, but an author nonetheless), the concept of writing a novel with David Weber had crossed my mind. David is, after all, not only a prolific author, but a prolific collaborator as well. I had given David some of […]

February 6, 2022 by holojacob Leave a Comment

Jacob's Well-Loved Copy of In Death Ground

Catch up on Act I here! Act II: Monster Con We arrived early to David’s signing, hoping to not only get my copy of In Death Ground signed, but also to whisk H.P. back home to safety and comfort. This plan, as with many plans before it, did not survive contact with the enemy. David […]

Empire of Silence – Book Review

April 11, 2021 by hpholo Leave a Comment

I finished reading Empire of Silence a little over a year ago, but it was one of those books that I enjoyed so much, my only reaction at the time was *excited pterodactyl noises.* (Admittedly, I don’t actually know what an excited pterodactyl sounds like, nor what sort of noise it would make after discovering […]

Men Hunting Things – Book Review

February 6, 2021 by hpholo Leave a Comment

I picked up David Drake’s Men Hunting Things anthology for its amusingly frank title and, as has been a trend as of late, ended up finding a new favorite anthology. 😀  Its straightforward title belies a book of unexpected variety and complexity. While some of the stories are simple and hilarious (Wilson Tucker’s “Gentlemen, The […]
