Enter into Neth Space and you will find thoughts and reviews of books and other media that fit the general definition of speculative fiction. This includes the various genres and sub-genres of fantasy, science fiction, epic fantasy, high fantasy, hard sci-fi, soft sci-fi, new weird, magical realism, cyberpunk, urban fantasy, slipstream, horror, alternative history, SF noir, etc. Thoughts are my own, I'm certainly not a professional, just an avid reader avoiding his day job.

Tobias Buckell on Early Reviews
Somone asked Tobias Buckell a very interesting question about his take on early reviews and pre-release buzz. His response is even more interesting.
That was a very interesting question. Shame you don't ask more like that, if you ask me (which you wouldn't, because that would be too interesting for you)! ;)
I occaisionally do ask serious questions of authors. In this case, the inspiration was reading the article by Doctorow and then seeing Buckell call out early reviews - I just wanted to see what his thoughts were.

ReplyDeleteGood question, good answer!

ReplyDeleteI was joking :) I love the Questions Five and others you ask.
