It’s Apex Editor-in-Chief Jason Sizemore’s birthday. You can help make his birthday a happy one by treating yourself to a book from Apex Publications.
A summary of Apex news from 1/18/09 to 1/24/09, accompanied by a light link salad.
In this near-future, action-packed novel, humanity finds itself on the brink of extinction thanks to one research group’s good intentions. Nanobots designed to devour cancer cells are misprogrammed and thus they devour anything warm-blooded. This leaves fringe groups of people trapped in various mountainous locations around the United States.
There’s a big difference in the way “literary” writers and genre writers approach science fiction, fantasy, and horror. Genre writers revel in their worlds of wild imagination, so much that it plays an integral part in the plot and the action. To writers like Jose Saramago, Cormac McCarthy, and Kevin Brockmeier, genre conventions are mere backdrops to a greater purpose. As a reader, sometimes this works for me. I enjoyed McCarthy’s The Road. Not so much Brockmeier’s The Brief History of the Dead.
