The first book in the Voidwitch novella series.

I just started it last night for something quick & different. To be honest...the premise makes it sound super badass but the actual execution feels like it's trying waaaay too hard.

Its short though so I'll finish. 😊

it's so disappointing when a book has a bunch of elements that would normally appeal to me (heroine with crazy powers, violence, snark, and space fights) but doesn't come together coherently. the entire time I read this, I kept feeling this title was a lukewarm and slightly juvenile derivative of other things I've read that executed things better, so the overall experience was remarkably underwhelming.

I don't quite know how so much managed to fit in such a small book, but it didn't feel rushed to me! I really liked how often we learnt new information with Mars that changed our perspective.

This was an interesting sci-fi novella with a non-binary character, I will be following this series.

I have a new favourite bookstore 😍 it sells both mystery plus science fiction and fantasy and has really friendly staff.

2018 has been a year full of novellas for me, and not just because I wanted to pad my Goodreads challenge numbers. There's just been a lot of well-reviewed and interesting sounding horror and sci-fi published in that format lately. Killing Gravity is a fun, action packed story in a space opera setting. At times I would've liked a bit more backstory and explanation, but I'll definitely read the sequels. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

A fast, furious, gore-soaked read as super-powered psychic Mars tries to evade capture by unethical military researchers (think X-Men‘s Stryker; you won‘t be far off). There‘s a lot of action packed into this novella, with compact thumbnail characters and an adorable not-a-cat sidekick (space otak). Fun - I‘ll be hunting down the sequel in due course.

#RRSciFiMonth Day 8: can‘t wait to read

I should‘ve got to An Unkindness of Ghosts already, but SF (shockingly!) was the one category I didn‘t have time to complete for the Subjective Chaos Kind of Awards (which Unkindness went on to win). I really want to read it. Buuut I‘ll probably read Record of a Spaceborn Few and the Killing Gravity novellas first.

☄️Space opera about a girl on the run who‘s also seeking vengeance.
☄️Fabulous rep of non-binary character.
☄️Excellently action-packed & violent.
☄️Amazing space battle scene.
☄️World-building is detailed & delightful in scope, esp. for less than 180 pages.
☄️Interesting premise that is unputdownable.
☄️Super cute & vicious cat-type critter.
☄️Highly rec‘d for hard sci-fi fans & fans of things like Firefly & Murderbot diaries.
☄️4.25/5

I just started reading this and the first chapter introduces an Asian MC and a non-binary person, who seems to be accurately depicted so far (proper use of pronouns, etc.). It‘s got me very excited to keep on going!

It‘s a space opera novella, if I‘m not mistaken. 🙂🙂

Porch reads after the rain. 🙌🏼😍

Sci-fi cyberpunk. A short fun ride, although the hectic pace makes some bits of the narrative feel squashed and in need of more room to breathe. Looking forward to the next installment.

Amazing book. Witches in space! Very excited for the sequel!

River Tam but with telekinesis, an attitude, and a cat(ish). Lots of fun. Received an ARC to review.
