Books I've Read

21 short science fiction stories. Some good ones here.

Louis Wu visit a world in the shape of a...GIANT RING!!!

Third book in the Ringworld series. Ok, Ok, so I read the series before! That doesn't mean I can't read a book again!

I read this before, serialized in Galileo magazine, way back in the late 70s. Found the magazines in my garage, read it again.

Three stories that are prequels to Ringworld.

Quite a number of little stories of people (mostly men!) eliminating themselves from the gene pool.

Mutant Fors explores his post-holocaust world. I first read this in third grade. Original title "Star Man's Son".

Three stories comprise the second book of the Witch World series. Contents: Three against the Witch World -- Warlock of the Witch World -- Sorceress of the Witch World.

"Exotic gems and valuable oils were the lures that brought the space trader Solar Queen to the new planet Sargol"... An Ace paperback, cover price 40 cents!! Found this and two others on a bus stop one morning!

The space trader Solar Queen buys the rights to a new planet named Limbo. Now they are trapped... on the "Sargasso Of Space!!! Dane Thorson's first trip out of training. An Ace paperback, cover price 40 cents!! Found this and two others on a bus stop one morning!

Three stories comprise the seventh book or the Witchworld series. I was slowly entranced by the stories.

Young spacer Rafe lands and a planet and gets mixed up in a gynocidal war. Good story.

Consists of the books Star Guard (c1955) and Star Rangers (c1953). Good classic space opera!

Apparently this is Time Traders *3, I haven't read *2 yet, at least not as far as I can remember. I read the Project Gutenberg e-book edition on my phone. Travis Fox is sent with the Apache group to an unsettled planet, they are shot down (yikes!), turns out the Reds are there with a Tatar group. Lots of stuff happens. Good story.

Kade Whitehawk is assigned as a Trader to a planet run by a bunch of oppressive aliens. He introduces horses so the slave race can free themselves from said aliens. SDHS discard.

Ross Murdock is offered choice: Go to prison, or participate in a government program. Roos chooses the government program, which turns out to be a SECRET government program, and involves POed Russians, POed alien, and time travel. Good story, I read it when I was a kid, this time it was the Project Gutenberg e-book edition.

Writing as Andrew North, Ms. Norton give us another exciting story in the Solar Queen series. This is #3. Dane Thorson gets involved in a conflict between apparent magic and poachers.

Reading this in my youth, now read the Project Gutenberg e-book edition. Pill pushers in space, to quote the text. Good story, very enjoyable.

Lesson one of The Scholomance. So Galadriel is a student at this place called, you guessed it, The Scholomance. It is a school for magicians. With no apparent staff. And no one can leave, mostly, until they graduate. Which isn't a given as there are tons of "mals" trying to kill them. I like the character, I'll be looking forward to the next book.

A Hugo nominee for 2019. Pretty good story, a version of Rumpelstiltskin. I got lost more than twice, 'cause sometimes I couldn't figure out which character was speaking for a few pages!
