Howling Stones cover

I enjoy Alan Dean Foster in general and this book impressed me with his writing. His opening chapter reveals his main character Pulickel Tomochelor. (Don’t you love that name? He’s Indonesian.) He’s a diplomatic problem solving being sent far away to a troublesome planet teetering on the border between the Humanx Commonwealth and AAcon Empire, a rival alien species. (Raptor-like).

Mr. Foster carefully builds up the background of the planet and depicts Pulickel interacting with people, revealing his character. Then like any good author, throws in a character completely different from Pulickel, one he has never met before.

Meet Fawn. A six foot tall exo-diplomat who looks like a goddess, in Pulickel’s opinion. Since he’s her direct superior, he can’t tell her this. And she irks him. She’s very casual about diplomatic protocols and dress. She’s wearing a bikini that could fit in one of Pulickel’s pockets when she meets him. Then she saves his life. And the story continues.

Well done Alan Dean Foster! Anyone who likes alien based scifi, go for this book

I listened to this book in my car and chuckled on my 500-mile trip. Genuine Terry Pratchett humor, written long ago when he was a young man and recently updated and edited by Sir Pratchett himself. Why? “Because your imagination gets much bigger as you get older.”

Any lover of Terry Pratchett or humorous fantasy will love this.

I quote the story below.

The Very Busy Fire Brigade

I came up with this idea from reading a humorous meme on Facebook way too many times, so I had to write something.

No one knows why people’s pants literally started catching on fire every time they told the slightest fib, but it made for very exciting television and maybe not so exciting consequences for the person involved.

Needless to say, the fire department was very busy. Major businesses had taken to employing small groups of firefighters to follow behind certain people (you know the type) and spray them down with fire extinguishers. Most people learned to live for this except for those in power, which seemed to scoff and turn up their noses at the idea despite evidence to the contrary.

None of this was more prevalent than in Washington where small groups of firefighters were kept busy around the clock every time a politician went anywhere. It didn’t matter the party or affiliation everywhere politicians’ pants were constantly bursting into flame. This also made voting easier because you always knew who was being truthful and who wasn’t.

Pants on fire

Part Two Follows


“Please don’t send the brigade again.” One irritated politician sighed before his latest speech.

“Are you sure sir?” A security detail asked looking worried, “it comes highly recommended.”

“I’m positive!” The politician in question snapped.  Afterward, he would straighten his lapels, and comb his close-cropped hair. “Besides, I can handle myself.”

Needless to say, said politician would be very sorry later if he had to be doused by the closest pitcher of water or if the fire department had to be called and he was out a pair of trousers.

This phenomenon was also used to great effect within the judicial system itself. Corrupt judges were weeded out and small groups of firefighters followed around criminals every time they spoke to law enforcement. Trials became efficient because there were usually quicker confessions.

Smart people tried to avoid this in the court itself, because who wanted to get charged with perjury, and well, the results spoke for themselves.

New Science Books for You, and Science Fiction

New Science Books for You – let’s begin immediately with my book review.

New Science Book
The story of SpaceX

The dramatic inside story of the historic flights that launched SpaceX—and Elon Musk—from a shaky startup into the world’s leading-edge rocket company.

What a great description of the recent history of SpaceX, built and led by Elon Musk and his incredible team of dedicated engineers and space fanatics! Author Eric Berger interviewed the key leaders within the company, gleaning many wonderful stories around the development of the Falcon 1, the first independent commercial rocket to go into orbit.

Mr. Berger tells the story very well, building the characterization of each major person involved in the company. One of the key lessons for me was how effective Musk is at hiring people with passion and skill.

Given the personal descriptions of the engineers, as a reader you really pull for the team. You hurt as the first three Falcon 1 rockets crash and the team has to debug what went wrong and start over. You feel the urgency for success as Musk’s finances dwindle to just $30 million in cash for both SpaceX and Tesla, which was also strapped for cash.

I highly recommend this for anyone interested in Elon Musk, engineering, or the space program.

From Andy’s Goodreads review.
