The Lost Child of Lychford - Paul Cornell
A Fashionable Indulgence - KJ Charles
Sorcerer to the Crown - Zen Cho
Tremontaine season two
Hidden Figures - Margot Lee Shetterly
Voices - Ursula Le Guin
Déjà Vu - Ian Hocking
Star Trek: Killing Time - Della Van Hise
Star Trek: City on the Edge of Forever
Sorcerer to the Crown
WHAT A GOOD. I loved everything about this (even the m/f romance! WONDERS WILL NEVER CEASE) and would like twelve more just like it.
Déjà Vu
I got this free at last year's Nine Worlds and have only just got round to reading it. It's a fun near future sci-fi thriller, slightly marred by a) the actual literal woman in a refrigerator (not there to motivate a man, at least) (though there was a metaphorically fridged woman later on) (sigh) and b) the unnecessary clichéd rape backstory given to one of the characters. On the plus side, I really liked one of the leads, Saskia Brandt: she has some "how do I person" stuff that I enjoyed a lot. And the series is named after her, so I may well end up reading more.
