“Fullness comes when we remember to be with Him before going out to serve Him” Lysa TerKeurst
free book from my recent order from Thrift Books
pan(1977) John Grimes, exiled from space service after events of The Big Black Mark, starts an interplanetary mail business. But on his very first job he and the postmistress are hijacked by bee-people. It's very 1970s, with sexual situations probably intended to be modern that now seem icky and misogynistic instead. We get past that to a serviceable but forgettable escape-and-revenge plot, but still not one of the series' highlights, for sure
(1969) This is Norton's follow-up to February's #classicLSFBC pick, “The Zero Stone.“ I've mentioned that I quite like TZS; I like Uncharted Stars only a little less. The resolution seems too abrupt: at least one more chapter, better yet at least one more book, is needed for closure, and I strongly suspect that Norton had ideas for the latter and just never got around to writing it. But the fact that I wish there was another entry is review enough

Just noticed this free short story from the Legends & Lattes series! Set before the first book, it‘s about a quest Viv is on to capture Bodkin and retrieve stolen documents.

bailedSadly, my first DNF for 2025 is also #ClassicLSFBC selection for February. I tried to get into it, but it just wasn't for me. I've read and enjoyed several of Andre Norton's novels & short stories, but this one I'll have to bail on.
A couple of questions for any who have finished this month‘s #ClassicLSFBC pick.
If anyone would like to be added or removed from the tag list, let me know.
🐈⬛ Eet had more personality than the humans (“just so”) in the book. What did you think of Eet as a character and his relationship with Murdoc?
