Story4.5 out of 5 stars 275
On a cold spring night in 1952, a huge meteorite fell to earth and obliterated much of the East Coast of the US, including Washington, DC. The ensuing climate cataclysm will soon render the Earth inhospitable for humanity, as the last such meteorite did for the dinosaurs. This looming threat calls for a radically accelerated effort to colonize space and requires a much-larger share of humanity to take part in the process. Elma York’s drive to become the first lady astronaut is so strong that even the most dearly held conventions of society may not stand a chance against her.

Sancia Grado is a thief, and a damn good one. And her latest target, a heavily guarded warehouse on Tevanne’s docks, is nothing her unique abilities can’t handle. But unbeknownst to her, Sancia’s been sent to steal an artifact of unimaginable power, an object that could revolutionize the magical technology known as scriving. The Merchant Houses who control this magic - the art of using coded commands to imbue everyday objects with sentience - have already used it to transform Tevanne into a vast, remorseless capitalist machine.

All Systems Red is the tense first science fiction adventure novella in Martha Wells' series The Murderbot Diaries. For fans of Westworld, Ex Machina, Ann Leckie's Imperial Raadch series, or Iain M. Banks' Culture novels. The main character is a deadly security droid that has bucked its restrictive programming and is balanced between contemplative self-discovery and an idle instinct to kill all humans.

A century ago, the Sentience Wars tore the galaxy apart and nearly ended the entire concept of intelligent space-faring life. In the aftermath, a curious tradition was invented - something to cheer up everyone who was left and bring the shattered worlds together in the spirit of peace, unity, and understanding. Once every cycle, the civilizations gather for the Metagalactic Grand Prix - part gladiatorial contest, part beauty pageant, part concert extravaganza, and part continuation of the wars of the past.

When Rin aced the Keju - the Empire-wide test to find the most talented youth to learn at the Academies - it was a shock to everyone: to the test officials, who couldn’t believe a war orphan from Rooster Province could pass without cheating; to Rin’s guardians, who believed they’d finally be able to marry her off and further their criminal enterprise; and to Rin herself, who realized she was finally free of the servitude and despair that had made up her daily existence. That she got into Sinegard - the most elite military school in Nikan - was even more surprising.

It was not common to awaken in a cloning vat streaked with drying blood. At least Maria Arena had never experienced it. She had no memory of how she died. That was also new; before, when she had awakened as a new clone, her first memory was of how she died. Maria's vat was in the front of six vats, each one holding the clone of a crew member of the starship Dormire, each clone waiting for its previous incarnation to die so it could awaken. And Maria wasn't the only one to die recently....

Publisher's Summary
When dragons rise from the earth, firefighters are humanity's last line of defense, in this wild near-future fantasy.
Firefighter Cole Brannigan is on the verge of retirement after 30 years on the job, and a decade fighting dragons. But during his final fire call, he discovers he's immune to dragon smoke. It's such a rare power that he's immediately conscripted into the elite dragon-fighting force known as the Smoke Eaters. Retirement cancelled, Brannigan is re-assigned as a lowly rookie, chafing under his superiors. So when he discovers a plot to take over the city's government, he takes matters into his own hands. With hundreds of innocent civilians in the crosshairs, it's up to Brannigan and his fellow Smoke Eaters to repel the dragon menace.

Stellar vocal performance and gripping storyline!
I’ve been excited by the prospect of firefighters fighting DRAGONS ever since that word combination hit my feed, back before Grigsby had released his debut. And what a debut. The author is an absolute natural, with the casual ease Stephen King is famous for, along with some upper grade characterization along some very cool futuristic toys, indeed. The dialogue flows like water, the descriptions, while not exactly *crisp* give you a general idea of where the people are at any given moment. And humor. I really loved the humor and overall playfulness in the author’s eye even while telling a story that had some very serious parts. All threads were sewn up nicely, transitions were cool, and so I think many readers, elder teens on up might like this book. Fantasy, sci-fi, urban fantasy readers, probably even horror enthusiasts could enjoy this.
Although if anyone thins their eyes again, it’ll be far too soon. ;)
Now for the narrator, I don’t think I’ve ever heard Smith read before, but now I want to just hear him read all of my books to me. The man studied his material and makes every character (even the Korean-speaking dog) come straight to life. Honestly one of the best narrators I’ve had the pleasure of hearing yet. The action scenes are read rabbit-fast, just as they happen, while the transitional scenes can be soft and languid. I’ve always gotten far better enjoyment from a book if it is read with *feeling* and this book has ALL the feels.
Seriously. Just buy it.

Sink or Swim
If the presence of dragons aren’t enough to convince you to read this book, let my promise that the witty dialogue is well worth your time. The narrator has the perfect voice to tell this story; they couldn’t have made a better selection. Every scene is packed with conflict to hold your attention. There’s no need to test the water, so sink or swim, jump on in.
