Public records survey highlights unevenness of government tracking, responses By Andrew Schotz and Luciana Perez Uribe Guinassi A one-month test of government agencies in Maryland revealed a patchwork of approaches in how public records are tracked and how requests for access are filled. The Maryland-Delaware-DC Press Association in February filed requests for public information with 31 state agencies, counties, municipalities and school systems. The idea was to look at trends in the number of ...

I was on not one but two award juries in 2020. I told myself it was reasonable because there was a lot of overlap in the potential nom­inee pools, so it wouldn’t be that much extra reading.

Tim Pratt’s last trilogy from Angry Ro­bot, the Axiom ( The Wrong Stars, The Dreaming Stars, and The Forbidden Stars), was precisely the kind of space opera romp guaranteed to delight me. Fast paced, and with a rag-tag crew of heroes and a selection of batshit weird dangers, it drove an appealing course through a galaxy not so very far away. With Doors of Sleep, Pratt opens a new series, and although it’s far from space opera, its rol­licking pace and fiercely inventive worldbuilding m...

Last year, Tim Pratt launched a Kickstarter for a new book, one set in the same world as his Axiom ( The Wrong Stars, The Dreaming Stars, and The Forbidden Stars) trilogy: The project was ultimately successful, and according to The Bookseller, it was enough to attract the attention of Angry Robot’s Commissioning Editor, Eleanor Teasdale, who picked up the book for a release later this year.
