So, Leviathan Wakes has gotten a lot of very flattering press.  A starred Publisher’s Weekly review, great reviews in Kirkus, and Locus, and the Wall Street Journal, the Washington Post, the London Financial Times, and about a jillion blogs.  It’s all sort of surreal when I think about it.

But nothing made me squeal like the mention I got today over at my favorite webcomic, Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal.

If you aren’t already a fan, what the hell is wrong with you?  Go become one!

  1. I just finished “Leviathan Wakes” and enjoyed it very much. Likely I will buy the e-book about Fred even though I hate reading books on my wife’s Kindle. I am eagerly awaiting the next book of the Leviathan series.

  2. Ty:

    As I said earlier, I really enjoyed the book: your favorite (?) comic, not so much.

  3. Ty,

    SMBC is great! Here are some others you should check out if you haven’t read them already. These really require you read from the beginning:

    Girl Genius Online: http://girlgeniusonline.com/

    Girl Genius is a in the steam punk genre and has won some Hugo’s.

    Nerf-This: http://nerf-this.com/

    I don’t know really how to describe this one but it is great.

    Guilded Age: http://guildedage.net/

    The name explains a bit where this one falls in the genre category.

    Don’t waste too much time with these. You got some writing to do and I need to be entertained! :)

    I can’t wait for the second book! Keep up the good work and I’ll keep buying.

    Have a good one,

    ~Josh
