PULP-A-WEEK: Taking a Short Break
http://pulpaweek.blogspot.com/2011/01/taking-slight-break.html
Friday, January 14, 2011. Taking a Short Break. I am going to relax for the month of January and rinse my brain with some non SF fiction. I promise to come back guns blazing in February! In the meantime I will be posting covers from my paperback collection to http:/ sfcovers.tumblr.com/. Hope you enjoy it. Update- I am going to buy a sweet color scanner in the next few weeks, so expect some better quality pics come February. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). The Art of Penguin Science Fiction.

Witterings about SF, with a smattering of lit fic so I can pretend that I'm clever. Newer posts →. Osama – Lavie Tidhar. January 14, 2012. I had been looking forward to this one for a while, but the pleasures of an insanely huge TBR pile have meant that I’ve only got around to reading it this month. Which, now that I have got around to reading it, is a shame. I’ve enjoyed some of Lavie Tidhar’s other fiction, both long and short, but for me, anyway, this is his best so far. Osama Bin Laden: Vigilante.

Oh man, where to start? This novel is even viler than Norman's.

http://pulpaweek.blogspot.com/2010/12/dinosaur-beach-by-keith-laumer.html
Wednesday, December 8, 2010. Dinosaur Beach by Keith Laumer. Cover is actually a good representation. Of how muddled the story is.

He falls in love with a lovely, simple girl, Lisa, but in the midst of his happiness is called away to Dinosaur Beach. Right around this point in the novel, which isn't too far in, ...
