Your News

Your News, Book Reviews, and SciFi Books as curated by me, Andy Zach. I read through the whole internet (well, most of it) in the past month. Let’s get started!

This is actually in the science category, military science:

Paranormal Privateers is here:

Since I told you about my audiobook, one of my six, I should tell you you can get it free right here. Click to join my newsletter. I also give away free short stories and one of my ebooks.

But enough of that. Let’s move on to my first review.

Your News
My review on Goodreads

One of the original military SciFi series, with some of the original supertanks, run by intelligent, aware AI. Mr. Laumer does a great job of portraying the personalities of these AIs, telling their stories from their point of view.

This collection of novellas is a must read for military scifi fans.

Your News – Real News Here

I’m a science fiction author, so I like science news. Here’s one:

Which thing seems coolest to you? Highways that charge electric vehicles? Or black holes? Or a 5K running robot? Let me know and I’ll give you a free book! Tell me here.

I’ve got more science for you here, my friends:

Your Books – A Book Excerpt for You and another Review

Yup. It’s Zombie Turkeys excerpt. You can get a free copy here.

You’ll enjoy this book if you like adventure science fiction.

Authors Eric Flint and Ryk E. Spoor have added another fine adventure to their space castaway series. This time it is another space life ship from the same disaster. Led by the powerful Campbell, a severely injured woman and four young men escape the shipwreck to an unknown, undocumented planet they name Emerald.

The young crew has to rebuild the power coil of the ship and they barely get them to the planet. But that’s the least of their worries.

The planet is full of huge predators and they cannot relax for a moment. Then they get a call over their radio, “Hey, is anyone out there?”

Hard science and adventure-loving readers will get plenty of both before this tale ends.

Your July Science Stories from Author Andy Zach

Your July Science Stories were personally curated by me, Author Andy Zach. I read science every day for ideas for my science fiction. If you love science, read on!

Let’s start with military SciFi that almost happened:

Here we have a plan for a sub-orbital rocket that could land 1200 Marines–from the 60s!

Now let’s switch to some steampunk SciFi that ISN’T fiction.

This should appeal to your artistic senses–or your arachnophobia. Let me know which by clicking here. As usual, I’ll give a free ebook for each comment or response.

Or you can cut to the chase and get free ebooks by subscribing to my newsletter at this link.

Five stories in one article. Enjoy.

Which one did you like the best? The nano assembly line, the electrode implanted to heal broken bones, or the smart foam that could help robots sense us approaching? Let me know.

Now some may quibble Richard Branson (and soon Jeff Bezos) only got to the edge of space in a sub-orbital flight. Weightlessness and a vacuum above our atmosphere is close enough for me.

But what do you require to be called a trip to space? An orbit around the earth? Landing on the moon? What are your standards? You can leave a comment or email me at [email protected] Or directly contact me.

Even the Toughest Critics Agree This Following Video is Outer Space

I would love it if Andromeda were that bright in the sky. Sadly, all we see is the fuzzy center. This picture demonstrates the power of time-lapse photography.

I read a deluge of science stories every week. This one filtered through the noise. I get a newsletter from GE, which is where I found it.

Jive With Five of Top 7 Science Stories

This story is a little disappointing: you can’t expect spaceships to cruise about independent of orbits. It takes too much energy.

That’s no problem for SciFi authors, like the one behind my typewriter. In my book below, I have a spaceship that directly converts matter to energy. Very handy, that is.

Your Sixth of Top 7 Science Stories

I can hear people saying, “That’s not science! That’s some idiot driving a wheel to 827 MPH.”

It is too science. The question was, “Can we spin a wheel faster than the speed of sound? What will happen?” There was an experiment to try it and they spun faster than the speed of sound. What’s more scientific than that?

Some free advice: don’t do this at home. Or anywhere else.

Your Last Science Story

The last science story covers anti-drone warfare–using silly string. I’m serious. Check it out in the link above.
