Welcome to the blog of Mary Brock Jones, SF author.

I also have a website, here


I write science fiction. Some dark, some not so dark. Some short, some longer, some very long. Some have a happy ending, others definitely not.

I also write NZ historical romance novels.They always end happily, even if the journey can get quite bumpy.

It's a nice mix.

More goodies - Carnelians by Catherine Asaro

This is turning out to be a weekend of rare pleasures. I managed to get my hands on a copy of Catherine Asaro's latest book in her Skolian series - "Carnelians". Beg, borrow, buy or steal a copy. It's great. I read it through in just a day and night, and will go back and re-read it. The only drawback of it is that it leaves you wanting so much more, right now.
      Don't  worry, the story does have a proper conclusion. But it's so enjoyable spending time with these characters and you invest so much in them emotionally, that you really need to know what happens next in their lives.
    Guess I'll just have to wait the year or so until she brings out another one - and if she doesn't , that will just be too cruel!  this series has not finished, Ms Asaro - please.
