2004 Hugo Award Nominees: Novella [Asaro, Catherine; Baker, Kage; Vinge, Vernor; Williams, Walter Jon; Willis, Connie]: Of the 2004 Hugo Award Nominees for Best Novella, there's only one I strongly dislike, Catherine Asaro's "Walk in Silence" (online at Analog). You know, I'm just not interested in alien-human romances. Sorry. My notes to myself on this...
Baker, Kage: (01-02) In the Garden of Iden; Sky Coyote: Because I don't have enough other series in progress, I decided to pick up Kage Baker's Company books. I'd read the first two back when they came out and liked them, but put them aside to see if she actually...
Baker, Kage: (03) Mendoza in Hollywood: I continue to enjoy Kage Baker's Company series with the third book, Mendoza in Hollywood, which is the first new to me. I think this book is an improvement over the first two in a couple of respects, though it...
Baker, Kage: (04) The Graveyard Game: My reaction to Kage Baker's The Graveyard Game, the fourth Company novel, can be summed up thusly: Woo! Plot! All the way through! Which is to say, the book opens with Joseph and Lewis (introduced briefly in Sky Coyote) deciding...
Baker, Kage: (04.5) Black Projects, White Knights; "Son Observe the Time"; "The Fourth Branch": Black Projects, White Knights is a collection of Kage Baker's Company stories that was published between the fourth and fifth books of the series. Two other stories, "Son Observe the Time" and "The Fourth Branch," are uncollected but available online...
Baker, Kage: (05) The Life of the World to Come: I am not sure that there is anything objectively wrong The Life of the World to Come, the fifth book in Kage Baker's Company series, but it left me rather grumpy all the same. Recall that at the end of...
Baker, Kage: (06) The Children of the Company: The Children of the Company is nominally the sixth Company novel, but as I said before, is actually a fixup. This is annoying on two levels. First, there's basically no movement in the overall plot, as all the stories take...
Baker, Kage: (07) The Machine's Child: I'd meant to take a break from Kage Baker's Company series to read the new Temeraire novel, but I'd mistakenly left that at work on a day that I found myself needing reading material. So, The Machine's Child it was....
Baker, Kage: (07) The Machine's Child (spoilers): This post contains BOOK-DESTROYING SPOILERS for Kage Baker's The Machine's Child. Here's the non-spoiler post....
Baker, Kage: (07.5) Gods and Pawns: I read Gods and Pawns, Kage Baker's second collection of stories about the Company, out of order. Technically it was published between the last two novels of the series, but I thought it would be better to get all the...
Baker, Kage: Anvil of the World, The: Possibly my favorite of the cruise books was Kage Baker's first fantasy novel, The Anvil of the World. Unfortunately, it's the hardest to describe. Oh, it's otherworld fantasy, apparently stand-alone, told in three novellas that build upon each other—but...
