REVIEWS for Flames!

Flames

Just got two great reviews for my new rerelease (first time as a stand-alone) novella Flames: Tony at QueeRomance Ink: “One of the messages here, if there is a message, is that people can change. Alex is one of those who manages to take those first steps into light. The touch is light here and there is no preaching. What you get is a sweet love story – a moment of darkness swept away by the finish.” Lee at Liminal Fiction: “…the ideas employed in Flames, and the clever use of metaphor, make this an excellent novella. Flames ingeniously parallels … Read more

Great new Dropnauts review!

by
Dropnauts review Anna Butler

The thing I always know I’m going to enjoy with any Scott Coatsworth novel is the worldbuilding because (i) it is my JAM and (ii) Scott is very good at it. Dropnauts is no exception. This is a well-realised, fully-fleshed world he has created here, of a destroyed Earth, thought unpopulated, and the attempt to reclaim and recolonise it from the Lunar colonies that are humanity’s last home. The devil’s in the details, and I just loved the way Scott builds pictures of Martinez base, and the Lunar city Redemption – particularly the latter… …the central themes of redemption and renewal shine … Read more

Fix the World Anthology

Genre: Sci-Fi, Hopepunk LGBTQ+ Category: Gay, Lesbian, Genderfluid Reviewer: Cyd Get It On Amazon | Universal Buy Link About The Book We’re a world beset by crises. Climate change, income inequality, racism, pandemics, an almost unmanageable tangle of issues. Sometimes it’s hard to look ahead and see a hopeful future. We asked sci-fi writers to send us stories about ways to fix what’s wrong with the world. From the sixty-five stories we received, we chose the twelve most amazing (and hopefully prescient) tales. Dive in and find out how we might mitigate climate change, make war obsolete, switch to alternative … Read more
