Welcome to SF Reviews
It is the 26th August 2012 and I've just stepped out onto the roof to look at the distant Moon. What a giant leap it was. Goodbye, Neil Armstrong, the first man to walk on the Moon.
SF Reviews is my collection of reviews of Science Fiction novels. These are my reviews and are therefore biased and superficial.
- If a novel contains perceptive criticism of the human condition, I probably skipped that page and failed, in my review, to draw attention to its incisive power
- If character development took place I doubt I noticed it.
- If there were radical technological or scientific concepts, maybe I read through to the end
- If there were heroic deeds by ordinary people, then hey I was in there with them and it's ranked high.
- If there was alien sex, I'm adult enough to handle that and no way would it have somehow clocked up an unjustifiably high SOJALS rating
I prefer paperbacks because they are so convenient. I want to read the book, not stroke its cover. I can slip a paperback into my briefcase, or jam it into my back pocket. I review novels rather than short-stories (unless I make an exception which, of course, I am allowed to do).
