BETWEEN TWO WORLDS (2021) Acrylic on Illustration Board - 10” x 7 ½” This started with a piece of the illustration board that I was using as a backsplash for a series of small monochrome works. One morning I came into the studio and in the random lines and shapes that marked the surface, I glimpsed a finished space scene. https://www.michaelwhelan.com/galleries/2021-leftover-8/ #leftoversandpalettegremlins #sciencefiction #illustration

Worlds of IF (December 1969) I like this style, if only because of nostalgia for the 70s. Is there a name for this kind of abstract, super-saturated artwork?

In my novel, “Our Better Nature”, Mary and her compatriots use their weather-wrangling powers to take on the global industrial complex, to cure climate change. No one can stop them. Almost. Several have read the book and commented on it. According to them, it’s worth reading. (Links to full reviews below). They say: Not too witchy, but enough magic (I mean science) to make it fun. – M.F. It feels like an adult version of those fairy tales we were read when we were kids… I only wish it was true. – B.A. A strong and enjoyable start from a new voice in urban fantasy. – L.R. Read this book though and it makes you feel as if there is some hope, that maybe something could be done if enough people organise themselves and band together. – G.C. The author has given us a wonderful story peopled by a rich tapestry of characters. He has blended science and magic, explored successes and failures, and love and sorrow. Ultimately he has offered a glimmer of hope that global cooperation may be able to drive environmental change. – M.R. #book #ebook #bookshelf #booksbooksbooks #bookstagram #bookstodon #fantasy #sciencefiction #wiccan https://www.amazon.com/Our-Better-Nature-James-Porter/dp/B0GJ6QD4QN/ref=tmm_pap_swatch_0 Links to reviews M.F, B.A., and L.R. are all found on the Amazon page.

A teenager asked me for recommendations to get into science fiction. I know she reads fantasy, but I guess they are different genres to her. She said someone told her she should read Dune, and I said nooooo, you should not read Dune. I suggested Murderbot. What else should I recommend? #Bookstodon #BookRecommendations #ScienceFiction #AskFedi

Another book completed on my #XTEINKX4! This was "To Be Taught, If Fortunate" by Becky Chambers, a fantastic #ScienceFiction novella about a group of astronauts and their journey exploring alien life on far away planets! I was pleasantly surprised by it, I want to read more works by this author in the future. #Books2026 #Reading #XTEINK #Books #Bookstodon

Finally reading Miller’s A Canticle for Leibowitz after it’s been on my shelf for years. Didn’t expect the spanking around page 50. #amreading #sciencefiction

I just finished #AutomaticNoodle by @annaleen@wandering.shop (I started it today). What a wonderful, magical, lovely book! I’ve been reading #ScienceFiction for a lot of years, but I’ve never read anything quite like this. Now I want noodles. #SciFi #SF

Vaikka kuinka selailisi suomeksi julkaistujen spefikirjojen tietokantaa, aina löytyy jotain yllättävää. Olen monesti saanut suosituksia tutustua Kim Stanley Robinsonin kirjoihin ja moni niistä on kiinnostanut. Lukulistalla on järkäleitä. Nyt huomasin, että Antarktika on suomennettu v. 2000. Mitä??? Miten tämä on mennyt ohi minulta. Onneksi kirja löytyi edullisesti nettidivarista, joten poimin sen itselleni. #sciencefiction #kirjat #scifi
