The Mongoliad by Neal Stephenson and friends

These books are ok.  I read the first three as a bundle and the main A stories do not resolve. The history is interesting. 3/5 stars.

Persepolis Rising


​Fantastic continuation of the story.  I hope the authors keep churning them out for years to come.  I am also looking forward to the third season of the tv show.  5/5 stars.

Artifakt Lazarus book 1



This story is a little melodramatic and formulaic but is still fun with non-stop action. I shall continue reading this series. 4/5 stars.

Machine Learning by Hugh Howey

There is a little too much anthropomorphism in these stories but they are still very good. The science is also a little weak.  I enjoyed the stories and may pick up more of Howey's stuff. 4/5 stars.
