My only complaint about science fiction to be published in March is: How in the world are we meant to find time to read all these great novels? There are so many must-feeds out this month when the latest from Nicholas Binge, Silvia Park’s tale of a lost robot sibling or Lailami’s vision of a future where our dreams are polished for what we may have to do (sounds completely Minority report – A very good thing in my opinion). All I can say is that I think it’s time to get away from the computer and get reading if we want to follow …

Unfortunately for humanity, in this latest slice of comic sci-fi from the excellent John Scalzi, the moon has turned to cheese and they have to find out what to do about it. This sounds like a lot of fun but i am planning primarily to read it to find out what kind of cheese the moon has become. I hope it is a nice bad part of Taleggio …

Our Sci-Fi Palter Emily H. Wilson heartfeltly approves of Binge’s latest, who writes that this time travel story is well deserved for his upcoming big-screen treatment. It tells the story of Maggie, the caregiver for her husband Stanley, who loses her memory. But then a mysterious stranger, Hassan, emerges and tells her that it is not that Stanley loses his memories, but that someone is about to receive them – and Maggie can go in his mind and get them back. Read not yet any binge but I’m eager to try this one – and his previous novel, Ascent.

I’ve heard a lot about this debut novel and it sits in my huge pile of books, ready to be picked up when I get a second. It sounds wonderful. In a future Unified Korea, three alienated siblings (two human, a robot) reunite after the 11-year-old Ruijie discovers the body of a robot boy in a junk yard.

This speculative mystery just sounds my kind of disturbing. Sara is on her way home from a work trip when agents from “Risk Assessment Administration” grab her at the airport. They have used data from her dreams and discovered that she is at “impending risk” to hurt her husband. She must therefore be detained to the detention center for his safety for 21 days. But ounces there next to the other Danger Dreamers she finds it may be hate to get out than thought …

I’m a big fan of a previous fracassi -novel, A child alone with strangers -Whot is like Stephen King on his scary, but warm -hearted best. So I was very happy to read that he has turned to Sci-Fi with this time travel novel, where the tenular “third rule” is that the traveler is unable to interact with the past, only observing it. But then scientist Beth Darlow, who builds the machine that allows this journey to happen to happen, discover that even her observations cause her timeline to distort. I really look at this one.

The Hugo-winning Martine wrote a fantastic sci-fi short story to New scientist For a few years back. She is brilliant! And to top it off, her latest is compared to the best scary novel ever written: Shirley Jackson’s Haunting by Hill House. In Martine’s twist, a house (Rose House) added with an artificial intelligence has been enclosed death by her architect. The only person allowed to the architect’s protected once a year. But now a dead person is there – and Rose House does not communicate further. Creepy!

The winner of the 4th Korea Sci-Fi Literature Award, this novel is set in 2035, two sisters teaches that their beloved race horse will be late for Knacker’s Yard and Hatch a plan to save her. They make her run one last race to remind her of happier times, but will train her to run the sweet race in her life.

This cartoon tribute to all things sci-fi follows Johnny Gomez, Custodian-or Space Broom-of a Far-Funllung Space Station that discovers a stolen data tip and tries to make his fortune. I’m never quite sure of so -called “comics” novels (the only ones I’ve ever roared by laughter on are Andy stantons Mr. Gum Series that I really recommend if you have a child in elementary school), but it sounds fun.

This is described as “science-fantasy”-it follows Liu Lubeng, a princess of the Feng Royal family who has bark surfaces, branch arms and needle hair. She must be the next breach of a human king, but her people living within are under the constant threat of human expansion. Lubeng decides she will kill the king on her wedding day and put an end to future marriages for her people.

Yuki and Sam are soulmates, but when Sam decides to take a new miracle agent that can expand a human life indefinitely, what will happen to their romance?

This is the sequel to Robin’s The stars unnecessary And looking at Anita on a quest for revenge after the commander’s death Matheus Ceirran. However, when she travels into a nearby empire, she discovers a secret that can threaten the galaxy.
