"Book post: Saga of the Forgotten Warrior Larry Correia (@monsterhunter45) has always been a very entertaining writer. He made his name writing guy fiction - action laced with snarky humor horror frisson and a side of gun porn - in the Monster Hunter sequence. He continued that streak with the self-conscious pulp-retro callbacks of the Grimnoir Chronicles. All good clean fun worth your money and an insouciant middle finger flipped at the ocean of estrogen-soaked slop that passes for "literature" these days but one could be forgiven for wondering if the man was ever going to get serious.

"Book post: Cast in Time I've mentioned previously in this series of reviews that I enjoy "civ-builder" SF - in which your main character is thrown back in time and has to rebuild modern civilization in a far pre-industrial milieu. There's a spectrum in works like this from the softer ones in which civ-building is an armature for some other kind of story - usually adventure or military fiction - to the harder kind that is largely an excuse to geek out about details of reconstructing technology and of military operations. The "Cast in Time" books (eight to date) are at the very hardest end of"

"I usually enjoy your takes but the implication here is bullshit. A speedboat full of mustard gas as a weapon; a bad guy can use it to kill and injure many. A speedboat full of drugs is not a weapon; the only people who will die because it gets here either chose to take the drugs or died from an entirely predictable consequence of prohibiting them"

"Book post: Cast in Time I've mentioned previously in this series of reviews that I enjoy "civ-builder" SF - in which your main character is thrown back in time and has to rebuild modern civilization in a far pre-industrial milieu. There's a spectrum in works like this from the softer ones in which civ-building is an armature for some other kind of story - usually adventure or military fiction - to the harder kind that is largely an excuse to geek out about details of reconstructing technology and of military operations. The "Cast in Time" books (eight to date) are at the very hardest end of"

"I watched a Falcon X launch just now. Enjoyed the space footage and the sound of flight controllers calling out milestones like max-q and stage separation. And I thought not at all ironically "I shall sing you the song of my people". This is the epic of our age of technology the apex of Western civilization streaming to us in real time. The crisp sound of quiet competence as squishy human beings hurl rockets at the stars. It's a thing to be proud of"

"They failed and you became a hero to millions. I occasionally teach firearm self-defense. I would be extremely proud of any of my students who displayed the kind of grace under pressure that you did. X bullets X hits on two people who badly needed killing and no innocent bystanders tagged - that's impressive and I don't think you get enough credit for pulling it off as a teenager. I doubt I would have done as well. Things being what they are people are going to be attacking you questioning your actions and your motives for the rest of your life. You did the right things and don't forget that"
