The Stardust Grail

4 stars

A story about friendship, betrayal, and the aftereffects of colonization (in space!) with heists.

Alien Clay

Another great Tchaikovsky take on the truly alien, this time with added revolutionary fervor. If you like near-to-mid-future scifi rooted in existing social issues and aliens that aren't just humans with weird foreheads, Alien Clay is for you!
