A collection of some of the best feature articles from Tor.com's 10 year history as an online sci-fi/fantasy literature magazine. Read: - An intimate moment under the covers that bloomed into a lifetime lived through sci-fi/fantasy. - A fierce defense of fan fiction. - The history of Wheel of Time author Robert Jordan, and the story of the reader who had her future rewritten in turn. - A deeply unwise thought experiment that explains how centaurs eat. - The story of one writer's amazing day, starting out on her last dime and ending with her somehow hugging her idol, Terry Pratchett. - And much more! Rocket Fuel: Some of the Best From Tor.com Non-Fiction features essays from Seanan McGuire, Ursula Vernon, Jo Walton, Nisi Shawl, Kate Elliott, Becky Chambers, Kai Ashante Wilson, Sarah Gailey, Grady Hendrix, Judith Tarr, Lish McBride, Emily Asher-Perrin, Ryan Britt, Leah Schnelbach, Natalie Zutter, Molly Templeton, and more! At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.… (más)
Has its good moments but not enough to be truly worthwhile IMO.
My favourites and bits I care about in no particular order: Galadriel, Valente's Fairyland, Ursula Vernon piece, "In Defense of Villainesses" (YES), "Meet My Alien Family", "Writing Women Characters as Human Beings", as well as pieces about V for Vendetta and Jessica Jones.
Special mention goes to the wondrous centaurs - talk about curiosity, science and stuff of nightmares. (I sure am NOT sorry the question was asked)
Book's redeeming feature - it is free on amazon. ( )
