An alien pyramid has appeared on Earth, squatting in the middle of Chicago. It is growing, destroying the city as it does — and nothing seems able to stop it, not even the might of the US military.

Bedlam Boyz
AuthorEllen Guon
ISBN0671721771
I downloaded a bunch of free books from the Baen library, and I don't think a single one of them was any good, at least for my taste.

This one was--I don't know, maybe it's meant to be a middle-grade book, in which case some of the behaviour might make sense? But for an adult, it was just stupid. The...
Sleipnir
AuthorLinda Evans
ISBN0671875949
The sad thing is their are some really cool ideas like the idea that Odin is a villain and that it looks at the monsters as more of as tragic characters instead of as villains like they usually are. But the problem comes mostly with the main character Randy is just really boring and seems more like a gary stu...

Forward the Mage
AuthorEric Flint
ISBN0743471466
Please Note: Read in January 2008 immediately after The Philosophical Strangler. Just copying over my review.

Thoughts: Combining prequel and aspects of similarity with The Philosophical Strangler, Forward the Mage is full of Rabelaisian nonsense that is certain to confuse and befuddle...
Stars Over Stars
AuthorK.D. Wentworth
ISBN0671319795
This book is a sequel to Black on Black, one of the few books I’ve rated with five stars. I think I liked this sequel even more than its predecessor. This book, Stars over Stars, built logically from the events and character growth of the previous book. However, it told an entirely new story on a new planet....
