This week, in episode 110, I start reading The Tomb Wife by Gwyneth Jones. This is a very cerebral tale, not to say that you have to burn out a few synapses just to understand it, but what I mean is, that it deals with loneliness, loss, isolation and know that your life depends on everyone agreeing what the "world" is suppose to be like. Plus I really think Mz. Jones' version of FTL is very inventive. Not to say that the terms have not been bandied about, but getting inside the people's heads that have to deal with this very abnormal way of traveling. The Tomb Wife is up for a Sturgeon award, and you will find that it is an righteous nomination. From the blog, taking a picture of not with light, Charlie Jade is busted to the minors, Phoenix, did it or did it not find water?, Is there a "Planet X"?, and how to measure the speed of light with chocolate! Yes Willie Wonka never had a clue! Get your sweet tooth ready, its time for Beam Me Up!
