About Me
I review stories (books, graphic novels, films, tv shows, etc.) and discuss topics within the fantastical genre, especially fantasy and fantasy-heavy science fiction.
I tend to approach these things critically, and I love a well-formed argument, so please feel free to enter into the discussion, provided you mind your manners.
Please understand that, although I might treat them roughly from time to time, I think the subjects of my posts are otherwise fantastic!

ReplyDeleteTHE DAY THE SUN CHANGED COLORS
The year is 4377. The world has advanced into a perfect utopia. War, disease, crime, and poverty are all distant memories. Everyone is a genius scientist, with artistic talents, and perfect bodies. Super advanced technology takes care of all problems. They have unlimited energy and wealth and sit on invisible chairs and tables.
Everything is quite boring until one day when the Sun starts turning colors of the rainbow like a giant disco ball in the sky?
And then all hell breaks loose.
Can a family of two mothers, three fathers, and two kids build a spaceship without killing each other?
Can their little unappreciated cleaning robot save the day?
Here are the latest reviews:
"I laughed so hard I had tears streaming down my face"
"As entertaining as The Shape Of Water!"
"Charming and colorful and wildly imaginative, and very cool--the kind of thing only a mad, iconoclastic genius could have conceived and birthed. Bravo..."
Review on GoodReads from Valerie Roberson--
"A Science Fiction with the word emphasized on science. The author, Scott Evans, has you wondering if you are dreaming or really in the future. He writes this with a sense of humor, such as "Warning: The following material contains punctuation from the future" and by golly, it does and that makes the book interesting. You see, the sun is going to explode and the moon is going to crash. So they were told to evacuate to another planet. And the people started to leave, except one family. This family is going to build their own ship. They go to a dispensary to get their parts. This place has all the old left over things from our time. They have never seen most of this stuff. It is so funny to read their comments on things we take for gannet.
So they start to build the ship. But like most families, there is bickering and at least one person who thinks they know it all and are in charge. This goes on for a long time and they are running out of time to leave.
The ending was nothing like I thought it would be. I really liked the ending and found it interesting and shaking my head thinking that it figures. There is a lot of science terms and I had a hard time figuring it all out in the beginning, but all of a sudden the story fell in place for me and I was really enjoying it. This is for the true science fiction lover. Completely different from any other I have come across of. Good story line, good writing (after I figured it all out), good humor and down right unusual."
