Hi,

Ang dalawang nobelang ito ay isinulat ko. Ang nauna ay The Knight Distress noong 2014 sa ilalim ng Bookware Publishing. Ang genre nito ay Romance at Teen Fiction. Mabibili ito ng softcopy sa website ng Bookware.

Ang pangalawa naman ay ang The Tale of Tsukuyumi na naipublished noong 2020 sa ilalim ng VIVA Books. Ang genre naman nito ay historical fantasy romance. Hindi ito masyadong nakilala dahil kasagsagan ng pandemya at lockdown nung inilabas ito sa madla.

Review - Tales Lost Among the Stars

The nine short stories in Tales Lost Among the Stars are a throwback to the Golden Age of science fiction. They echo the early works of writers like Isaac Asimov, Arthur C. Clarke, and Poul Anderson. And much like these writers, Emiliano Forino Procacci's  stories are focused on ideas, ambitious yet relatable, yet they also contain subtle takes on ethics and morality. The opening story, “Artificial Intelligence”, is a perfect example of this. It tells the tale of two people who rely solely on their electronic devices to navigate their worlds. This includes when to get up in the morning, when to leave for work, and timing everything for optimal efficiency. Of course, this also overlaps into their personal lives. The AI prevents distractions - like romantic encounters - so their humans can achieve promotions and recognition. 

Author Emiliano Forino Procacci Interestingly enough, the second part of the story tells the tale again, but this time without the interference of AI. This shows the contrast between an artificially guided life and one that unfolds naturally. It’s an interesting juxtaposition. Other story topics include consumerism, ecological disaster, human bondage, and the pitfalls of immortality. There is also an interesting look at death and dying that offers a new take on what happens when Death arrives at our door. The messages aren’t heavy-handed, they are matter-of-fact. Simple and understandable without having to dig deeply for meaning.  However, I would caution readers that, much like the Golden Age writers, the emphasis of the stories is ideas and not characterization. There is a lot of exposition and telling, rather than showing. Not that it’s a bad thing if you’re a fan of those early science fiction stories. But if you’re a reader of modern science fiction works, then you may find these stories aren’t to your liking.  Overall, it’s an interesting collection of stories that take the reader on a journey around the planet and to the stars, into both the near and distant future, and leaves them with ideas to ponder long after the book is finished.

Book rating and info:

Fanart:

Here’s my first book review/fanart post I’m putting on Tumblr! I’m hoping to do more of these in the future :) Also there aren’t any spoilers in this review but I do go into a lot of details about the story and characters, so if you want to be surprised, I suggest reading the book first. But if you want a detailed review about this book before reading it, keeping on reading. ✨

ALSO also, please support the amazingly talented writer who wrote this book! Here is his link tree:

Review:

I had so much fun reading this book. It reminded me a lot of Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy with all of its wacky humor and crazy space adventurous, but with its own twist and writing style. Everything about this story is colorful from the world, to the technology, to the characters and more. It had found family, crazy cooperate politics, diverse characters, relatable struggles, and a really unique depiction of the future. I found myself laughing and cheering on the characters for every page and looked forward to reading it whenever I could. I would say my only critiques are related to the prose and world building. There were a lot of times where I didn’t understand what was going or had a hard time imagining things because of the way things were described which, in turn, made some of these colorful places and things get lost in the narrative. But I believe a lot of the errors I found will be resolved in the final draft, and I honestly had such a perfect image in my head most of the time that it wasn’t hard to connect the dots during the more difficult moments. I imagined everything like a cartoon because of the energetic, over the top, and sometimes slap stick type descriptions and situations which, in my opinion, is some of the best ways to tell a story. It’s so imaginative and creative and I wish more books took that approach honestly. It makes everything seem so colorful and clear in my head.

Regarding the world-building, it felt like it lacked a tad at times since I was unsure of why a lot of things were a certain way, but all in all, I was able to pick up on the way things worked eventually. The story knew what it wanted and did a pretty good job maneuvering us through this insane galactic world.

I think where the book lacked in prose/world-building, it made up for in its characters.

Oh. My. God. These characters. I love them unbelievably. They felt like family to me and I think I almost cried at the end lol. I loved seeing how these characters developed and how they each worked together to get their happy endings. They are all such a tight-knit family who love each other dearly, and each has their own unique, 3D personalities.

First, we have Jolene, a determined, hard-working waitress at Galaxy Waffles who also does a lot more work on the ship than her job requires, but that’s just the way she is. She’s reliable, and will always go above and beyond to help her ship and her crew no matter if it’s her duty or not. I related so much to her frustration as an overworked and underpaid staff member who just wants the best for her loved ones while also struggling as a minority in this world, being held back from opportunities because of her status. I think that part specifically hit very close to home and I loved how the book covered real-world topics like that but in its own fictional way. It was a great allegory and I think, as a minority myself, it approached it realistically, respectfully, and in a way that is digestible and understandable to younger audiences while also showing it in a way where older people can be like: “yeah I understand and/or sympathize with that.”

Then we have Boris, the veteran Robot and chef of the ship, and also probably my favorite of the crew. He’s such a kind-hearted, lovable sweetheart who’s witty, sarcastic, playful, and caring. He’s always got his heart in the right place and does what he can to help his crew mates and ensure they’re all safe and happy. He warmed my heart in every scene, and I wish I could be friends with him irl lol!

Next on the list is Murph, a quirky blue alien with a jelly body and shifting abilities. They’re such a crackpot with a huge personality. Whether they’re talking/acting like a mobster from their favorite old movies, turning their hand into a calculator, or shifting into hilarious creatures/beings, they always got a laugh out of me.

Lastly, we have O.D. and Erabella. O.D being the ship’s AI, usually appearing like a holographic, sentient waffle. And Erabella being a mostly Android prick in charge of the crew’s every move. Although I hated both of them at first because of their mean-spirited and spiteful personalities, I came to love O.D. as his arc progressed and was satisfied with Erabella’s ending.

I could go on and on about more characters, but you get my point. I also really enjoyed how the book read maturely but also cleanly at the same time. It’s NA, and it did a really good job at finding a middle ground between mature content that adults could relate to while also being clean enough and digestible for teenagers.

This book was such a colorful, whimsical, chaotic adventure that had me smiling, laughing, and feeling sad for these characters every step of the way. I really recommend this book to anyone looking for an easy-to-read space adventure with humor and heart, and I hope a sequel comes out because I’d love to see what these guys do next!

A/N: I was an arc reader for this book back in July, and though I’ve already posted my review on Goodreads and Amazon, I MEANT to post it along with this fanart on my accounts too but life got into the way. Better late than never I guess 😅

Reviews of May movies.

The TV died. The TV lasted a good nine years. We’re looking for a new TV—DVD player. (Edit: We got it in three days! The new RCA is much better than the old one!) In the meantime, we watched much of “Timeless”. The motto from the DVD case is “Protect the Past. Save the Future.” Intent on destroying America in the future, a mysterious criminal, Flynn, steals a time machine, travels back to…
