When you’re looking for a new read there’s no shortage of great books released in recent years. Here are two recent sci-fi novels that will take you to new worlds and thrill you through every step of the voyage.
Daughters of Forgotten Light by Sean Grigsby. A firefighter from Arkansas, Grigsby’s first novel Smoke Eaters is set in a world where the sudden arrival of dragons transforms firefighters into humanity’s first line of defense. In Daughters of Forgotten Light, Grigsby transports us to a deep space penal colony holding the worst of the worst. Within the prison walls a delicate peace exists between the Daughters of Forgotten Light and its two gang rivals, that is, until things are shaken up by the arrival of a fresh batch of prisoners, a fresh batch of supplies, and a baby. Back on Earth, however, the powers that be are looking for just about any excuse to blast the colony out of space once and for all.
The Dreaming Stars by Tim Pratt. You’re in good hands with Tim Pratt, who has won or been nominated for a rather extensive list of sci-fi and fantasy awards, including the Locus, Nebula, and Hugo just to name a few. In The Dreaming Stars, Pratt’s second installment in the Axiom series following the Philip K. Dick Award-nominated The Wrong Stars, we reunite with the misfit crew of the White Raven, who are called upon to deal with a swarm of nanoparticles transforming everything it encounters—including hapless colonists.
