• Oaths and Miracles - Nancy Kress

  
  Not Free SF Reader : Science Fiction, Fantasy, Horror — Authority: 524
  The second of her novels I have seen along these lines. It is quite clear that Kress is no thriller writer by inclination or ability. So sort of an odd thing to do from that point of view, given everything else she has written. E.g. it really never engages at all in any conflict with or insight into the actual ...

• Selections From The Improbable Adventures Of Sherlock Holmes - John Joseph Adams

  
  Free SF Reader : Free Science Fiction, Fantasy, Horror — Authority: 493
  As the title suggests, this is a shorter anthology made from the Improbable Adventures of Sherlock Holmes to put in the Baen Free Library. A shrewd move, I think. As far as Sherlock Holmes pastiche goes, the quality of these is reasonable enough. My favorite of these is Dominic Greens dino story. It also inclues ...

• Why I Write About Senior Sleuths

  
  Murderous Musings — Authority: 125
  by Jean Henry Mead I write senior sleuth novels because there’s a growing market for retirees who like to read in their own age group. I was intrigued years ago by Miss Marple and Hercule Periot, who were wise and perceptive, but never seemed to have any fun. That’s not true of today’s seniors who are less ...

  Hairy Hedonistic hippie harem heroin hiding. Yep, thats about the size of it from that era. Well built naked female on the cover notwithstanding not much living up to that - very short, and sex, violence et.c are in rather short supply here. Some drugs though. :) A lawyer is looking for a missing woman, and this ...

  Back in June of this year I reported on the FDA approval of their hand held device and here we are 6 months later and gone.  The company had been around since 1984.  300 more people will be looking for work in Minnesota.  They also had strong financial backers throughout but ran out of money.   Hospitals ...

• The Improbable Adventures Of Sherlock Holmes - John Joseph Adams

  
  Not Free SF Reader : Science Fiction, Fantasy, Horror — Authority: 524
  The problem with pastiche of something of that is the best ever example of its kind is that it will always disappoint. In the sense that it wont live up to the original at its best. That is certainly what I have found with Sherlock Holmes pastiche in general, having read several anthologies of such. So making a ...
