I recently retired from my book review column, “The Science of Wonder” over at InterGalactic Medicine Show. I wrote a bimonthly book review column there and my column ran for roughly 2 years. It was a lot of fun, but the reading for the column became increasingly too much for me to handle given the other things I am working on.
I am grateful to Edmund Schubert for giving me the opportunity to write a science fiction book review column. It was a good experience and I hope that readers found the reviews useful.
I will almost certainly continue to review an occasional book here on the blog, but I think I am done with formal book reviews for the duration.

I don’t blame you one little bit for giving up the column. I am not sure people understand just how much work goes into a few words allowed in a column. I professionally reviewed books in the past and, as my other creative and professional pursuits became busier, I found the time needed to be spent on other aspects of my to-do list. I’m sure they’ll miss your insights, but I am looking forward to seeing one or two reviews find their way onto this blog.
