Typically interested in Sci/Fi, for the most part, but read some fantasy, Greek Classics, the occasional biography if it is someone I care about. Science related non-fiction is good and Horror is good too.

Reading is for relaxation for me so I often don't read the most difficult fair. I do challenge myself from time to time.

I am looking for good narratives describing Hell as a literal place. (like The Inferno)

I am not Nurotipical.

Review of 'Area X: The Southern Reach Trilogy: Annihilation; Authority; Acceptance' on 'Goodreads'

One of my favorite books I have read in a long time! You are never on clear footing, you have no idea who to trust or if anyone is trust worthy! If you like technicalities and plausible stories this is a good one. If the situations that spark off the need to tell this story ever came to pass, this fully makes sense as how it could go down. That being said, none of this fully makes sense ever and that is the genius of this/these book(s)
