Historia
In this episode of “The Telepathy Tapes,” host Ky Dickens heads to Georgia. She is no longer asking if telepathy is possible but how it’s possible. The episode delves into historical and contemporary examples of telepathy, including Lucille Ball’s strange encounter with radio signals through her dental fillings and telepathy experiments by author Upton Sinclair. The narrative deepens as Ky recounts the story of Katie and her non-speaking son, Houston, who can read minds. Houston telepathically engages with other non-speakers in a phenomenon they call “the talk on the hill.” Through...

This was absolutely fascinating. Our world is much more complex than we’ve been treating it. I would love to hear more!

Historia
China thought it would be a quick war, an easy war. But now, years later, as the insurgency on the streets of Los Angeles escalates but the propaganda never changes, a Chinese officer can’t keep silent any longer. Torn between loyalty to his country and loyalty to his troops, he writes a brutally honest—and possibly suicidal—letter home to unmask the truth. Brooks combines his signature meticulous research with unforgettable characters in this landmark work of speculative fiction.

Echos of World War Z and 2030
Revisado: 06-29-24
I really loved this short story. It felt like the same haunting echos of World War Z. Also reminded me of one of my favorite books by Albert Brooks (no relation), 2030, written about another Chinese conflict on the west coast.

Historia
Zack Lightman has never much cared for reality. He vastly prefers the countless science-fiction movies, books, and videogames he's spent his life consuming. And too often, he catches himself wishing that some fantastic, impossible, world-altering event could arrive to whisk him off on a grand spacefaring adventure.

Super interesting read, especially post-David Grusch
Revisado: 03-03-24
I really enjoyed Armada’s characters, and the plot line was fascinating. I didn’t get around to reading this until 2024, almost a year after whistleblower David Grusch revealed that the US government that an over 80-year old UFO crash retrieval program, and that other countries have their own as well. It makes you wonder, how much of this plot mirrors real life?
I’d love a sequel!

Historia
Harry August is on his deathbed. Again. No matter what he does or the decisions he makes, when death comes, Harry always returns to where he began, a child with all the knowledge of a life he has already lived a dozen times before. Nothing ever changes. Until now. As Harry nears the end of his 11th life, a little girl appears at his bedside. "I nearly missed you, Doctor August", she says. "I need to send a message". This is the story of what Harry does next, and what he did before, and how he tries to save a past he cannot change and a future he cannot allow.

Engaging characters

The reincarnation premise is really well done in this story and allows for real great character exposition. I was really sad when the story came to an end, but I was really satisfied with the original ending.

Historia
War heroes aren't usually called out of semi-retirement and sent to the far reaches of the galaxy for a routine investigation. So when Colonel Carl Butler answers the call from an old and powerful friend, he knows it's something big - and he's not being told the whole story. A high councilor's son has gone MIA out of Cappa Base, the space station orbiting a battle-ravaged planet. The young lieutenant had been wounded and evacuated - but there's no record of him having ever arrived at hospital command.

Sucked into the story
Revisado: 03-02-19
Honestly my interest wasn’t high on the early premise of the investigation, but I got to say I was really surprised how much the detective + space war drama sucked me into the sorry. Really enjoyed the main character and inner dialogue. RC reading is awesome.

Unexpected and amazing
Revisado: 12-05-18
Fantastic story and I was really captivated with the alien backstory and the depth that was given to draw such interesting cultural contrasts with human society. I can’t wait for the sequel!

There's a reason We Are Legion was named Audible's Best Science Fiction Book of 2016: Its irresistibly irreverent wit! Bob Johansson has just sold his software company for a small fortune and is looking forward to a life of leisure. The first item on his to-do list: Spending his newfound windfall. On an urge to splurge, he signs up to have his head cryogenically preserved in case of death. Then he gets himself killed crossing the street. Waking up 117 years later, Bob discovers his mind has been uploaded into a sentient space probe with the ability to replicate itself.

Fast paced, surprisingly good character development.

I finished this book in two sessions. Couldn’t put it down. The characters were surprisingly well developed despite their origins.
