Esperance (2025) Adam Oyebanji "A tightly wound plot told from two divergent points of view that will keep you guessing in the best ways. If you're a fan of SF mystery, ESPERANCE merges the best from both genres."
The Runes of Engagement (2024) Tobias S Buckell and Dave Klecha "A fun read. Picture Call of Duty meets World of Warcraft with just a touch of comparative mythology for seasoning."
Kill Call (2024) Jeff Wooten "Kill Call is a fast-paced, twisty thrill ride that had me on edge until the very end."
These Burning Stars (2023) (Kindom Trilogy, book 1) Bethany Jacobs "If I were to say that this was the best debut novel I've read in a long time, I would be doing it a disservice. It's more than that - it's one of the best SF books I've read period. It has it all: jump off the page action, wild twists, superb world building. And the characters! It's rare that an author can make you care about so many different characters the way that Jacobs does. Go ahead and pencil her in for your Astounding Award ballot for best new author."
Rubicon (2023) J S Dewes "Rubicon is non-stop military SF action with plenty of twists. I couldn't put it down. J.S. Dewes has entered the military SF arena and firmly planted her flag as one of the best in the business today."
Beyond the Reach of Earth (2023) (Lightspeed, book 2) Ken MacLeod "An exceptional blend of international politics, hard science, and first contact."
Wake of War (2022) Zac Topping "WAKE OF WAR is packed with intense, realistic combat action set in an all-too-believable near future. Zac Topping has clearly been there and done that, and he delivers riveting combat scenes that explode off of the page."
Under Fortunate Stars (2022) Ren Hutchings "In Under Fortunate Stars, Ren Hutchings has written a space opera that is close and personal in its conflicts and, at the same time, wide-reaching in its scope. This is destined to be one of the breakout science fiction novels of 2022."
Deep Dive (2022) Ron Walters "An outstanding debut novel that explores the blurred lines between virtual reality and real life. It gave me Total Recall vibes in the best way. I couldn't put it down!"
Spidertouch (2021) Alex Thomson "Outstanding debut novel... Wonderful world building with a top-notch mystery to boot."
Nophek Gloss (2020) (Graven, book 1) Essa Hansen "An exceptional debut - one of the best I've read in years. The sheer imagination in this book is staggering . . . Reads like a Becky Chambers novel crossed with Firefly . . . With her first novel, Essa Hansen establishes herself as a force in the world of science fiction."
