Heya folks! Any of you read A New Past by Charlie Foxtrot on SOL? Pretty good stuff for one of the I'm-my-younger-self time-travel tales. Touch of the expected sexual escapades, but with a more romantic tilt. And the guy has a decent grasp on his engineering, so when he sets up the hero to make money, it comes off fairly plausible. All-in-all, I really liked book one. (Book two is due in a couple months, though.)

Another I read is The Collapsium by Wil McCarthy. Sorry, no links, but think it's on Amazon (or some bittorrent, if you're prone to that kind of thing). VERY SOLID hard SF set in Solar System of a few centuries from now, though the mix of tech and practicality has it still fairly recognizable to our present society (instead of a grand space-opera feel). Even had some consultive help from Arthur C Clarke himself on portions of it. Protagonist is a slightly grumpy loner scientist, but that's about the only fault from my point of view.

Cheers, gang!

Here is a another new "dead Tree" Series that i've been reading and enjoying

It's The "Star Force" series by "Aer-ki Jyr" so far there are 47 novella-length books written in this Series

You think the world is safe. You think everything is under control. You think there is nothing Humanity cannot do if it puts its mind to it. All the things you take for granted, the ‘normal life’ that you think is yours by natural right…never existed.
Earth is not what you think it is. It is a ticking time bomb wrapped up in a delusional utopia called everyday life. As you look up at the stars imagining Humanity’s future you’re actually seeing into your race’s past…a past that is fated to return with horrific consequences.
One man discovers that past and the inevitable countdown that Earth is under. Knowing that the planet’s present anonymity is the only reason it has survived to date, he dedicates his life and his fortune to defying the impossible and giving Humanity a slim chance, not of victory, but of mere survival against an enemy so ruthless and terrifying that their name will forever be seared into Human memory.
They are the V’kit’no’sat, and you’ve seen them before…you just don’t know you did.
With the knowledge of Earth’s past driving his plans for the future, the man who holds Humanity’s fate in his hands wisely chooses to keep his discovery secret, all the while recruiting resources and allies to form the organization that will spearhead Earth’s only hope against a dark and devastating future.
An organization known as Star Force.

Starwalker by Melanie Edmonds is a science fiction story about a starship with a mind. If you read it and like it, please vote for it on top web fiction.

The Starwalker is a starship with an experimental star-stepping drive. Designed to use the gravity wells of stars to fold space, she can travel between star systems faster than FTL. That is, if they can get it to work.

She is run by a sophisticated AI who doesn’t always follow her programming. She has only just been born, and she has a lot to figure out. She is often torn between the needs of the crew and the demands of the scientists responsible for running the tests on the new drive. There are politics surrounding this new drive of hers that she has to get a grip on before they get a grip on her.

Most of all, she needs to track down and explain the glitches in her software before someone notices and wipes her memory drives. What she doesn’t know is that it wouldn’t be the first time.

I use top web fiction to find most my new reading. That might be considered a hint to anyone out there who helps FEL with site admin.

I just read a new story on SOL: How to Be a Super Villain (Without Even Trying) by wcoyote.
It's a work in progress, very funny. http://storiesonline.net/s/76144

Can anyone recommend stories with a strong MC like Tarrin Kael.

[zedd]

I assume MC means main character? Or is it male character? Are you looking only for fantasy or any genre?

[heustess]

I was trying to figure out when Tarrin got mind control powers. Tarrin goes to C.A.M.P. Tarrin uses MasterPC.

In Links to Good Reading (Part 1) there were people looking for Deana Johns "Castle in the Sand" I have a copy of it but somebody probably has already got a copy of it by now. I just wanted everybody to know that he has started to post some of his stories again on SOL. He now goes by Thaumaturge. In his profile he acknowledges to being Deana Johns before.

[arargh]

If someone wants to read it, there is a copy of "Castle in the Sand" on asstr in the ASSM collection.
