Greetings Everyone!

My second book Aliens, Robots & Virtual Reality Idols in the Science Fiction of H. P. Lovecraft, Isaac Asimov and William Gibson will be released on October 30, 2020- a delightful time for a book release when autumn is at its height & Halloween is right around the corner.

Please pre-order a copy- it is now available for pre-order on Amazon, Zero Books, Google Books & various other online sites.  Here is a link to the Walmart site (I still can’t believe that Walmart is carrying my book!- I love Walmart).

Aliens, Robots & Virtual Reality Idols provides fun & definitive, cutting-edge interpretations of Lovecraft & Asimov’s works, and a thorough, penetrating analysis of William Gibson’s fiction right up to his Peripheral series.  By the way, Gibson has just published his second book in the Peripheral series, Agency.  It is a great book- a kind of prequel to the first entry in the series.

If you want a good introduction to Gibson’s world & his particularly dark, stimulating sf visions, then you should read my new book- it will get you up to snuff on understanding & appreciating Gibson, who is still, in my view, the #1 sf writer in the world.
