Couple of reviews of Tides From The New Worlds
June 30th 2010 at 3:57 am
Ken Liu weighs in on the collection here. Alex Kane also weighs in on it here. Both say lots of very nice things. Yay. Nice to see the commentary coming in about the eBook version. Ken noticed some tyographical issues. Since this is a handrolled document by me, if any one else notes glaring errors, [...]
The Alchemist and The Executioness launches July 6th!
June 28th 2010 at 12:35 pm
The Alchemist and The Executioness will be two novellas, one written by me, another by Paolo Bacigalupi, put together back to back (like the old Ace doubles) to create a larger project that is about as long as a short novel. Both novellas share the same background. We created a world, characters, places, and each [...]
The Alchemist & The Executioness
April 13th 2010 at 8:37 am
So I’ve talked about a novella I’ve been fiddling around with for the last year, The Executioness, off and on. I’m happy to report that it’s finished. But that’s not all. The Executioness is going to be one of two novellas, put together back to back (like the old Ace doubles) to create a larger [...]
Crowdsourcing FedEx? There’s a Tobias S. Buckell story for that!
December 31st 2009 at 9:05 am
Over at Futurismic Paul points out an article by Chase Saunders about ‘crowdsourcing’ mail delivery. If you read Metatropolis, my story Stochasti-city has this little segment: Suppose you had a package in Los Angeles that needed to get to New York. When I was a kid you’d go to a centralized post office, pay for [...]
Watch out Czechs!
December 30th 2009 at 8:55 pm
This magazine arrived in the mail today, the issue of Pevnost, which includes my story Waiting For The Zephyr in it. I’m hoping a lot of Czech Stephenie Meyer fans pick it up and read it in utter confusion. I’m just kidding. I know Pevnost is doing the media covers. The last few issues of [...]

Halo Evolutions
October 27th 2009 at 2:23 pm
The table of contents and cover for Halo Evolutions is floating around the internet (I saw it listed at Kotaku this morning). It’s a collection of short stories all set in the Halo universe by a bunch of different authors. The novella I wrote, Dirt, was something I threw myself into earlier this summer, and [...]
Halo Encyclopedia launches today
October 19th 2009 at 11:42 am
I’ve been a huge fan of DK Publishing books since I was a wee lad in the Caribbean. One of my favorites was their book on Greek/Norse mythology that I had on my shelf. Earlier this year I was approached and asked if I wanted to be a consultant for the Halo Encyclopedia. DK was [...]
