Rachelle @ Fortified by Books is hosting a Sci-fi Summer Reading Challenge (June 20th-September 21st) that I had originally not planned on joining. But then, I binge bought a bunch of sci-fi books, and the rest is history (and also, procrastination). Because I bought so many books, I'm aiming to meet the Viper Pilot level of the challenge (6-10 books). Here are some of the things I'm looking forward to reading:
Seed to Harvest: Wild Seed, Mind of My Mind, Clay's Ark, Patternmaster (Patternmaster #1-4 ) by Octavia E. Butler
I bought this on ebook because I've had it on my Amazon Wishlist and the price finally dropped- I'd read the author's Xenogenesis series, and I wanted to read more of her work.
The Chanur Saga (Chanur #1-3) by C.J. Cherryh
I bought this because SPACE CATS (well, sentient aliens/lions, but they are a form of cats). Also, I enjoyed C.J. Cherryh's Faded Sun Trilogy last year.
I have other sci-fi books to read, but it's always nice to have new ones on hand for a challenge.
Happy (Summer) Reading!
Yay! I'm glad you decided to join in. I look forward to your reviews on the Patternmaster series :)
ReplyDeleteWhat- no love for space cats? ;) Hopefully I won't procrastinate on reading too much during this challenge.

You always find the neatest books! Sentient alien lions. I love that. I am going to put it on my tbr. Good luck with your challenge. How is your mom doing?
ReplyDeleteI don't think they publish many alien lion books anymore... it's a shame! Thanks- my mom is walking with a cane now, instead of her walker. She has a lot of independence back, but she still needs me for some things. I'm really surprised at how quickly she's recovered!
DeleteThanks for stopping by and complimenting my taste in alien lions, La La!
