The paperback edition of Una McCormack's New York Times bestseller novel Star Trek: Picard: Second Self beamed down to retailers yesterday from Gallery Books. It's the fourth novel based on the Paramount+ streaming series Star Trek: Picard (the third and final season ended earlier this year). 

*The Exorcist Legacy is available to purchase on hardback and Kindle.*

This year marks the 50th anniversary of the iconic horror movie The Exorcist. I was eager to read The Exorcist Legacy: 50 Years of Fear by Nat Segaloff, a movie publicist, film critic, TV producer, college teacher, reporter, broadcaster, and, of course, author. In terms of The Exorcist, Sagaloff is no stranger; he served as one of the film's first publicists and wrote the highly regarded biography of the late William David Friedkin, who directed the film.

Available to purchase on hardcover and Kindle.

The newest Jack Ryan Jr. adventure Flash Point, written by Don Bentley, was published earlier this year by Putnam (an imprint of Penguin Random House), with another thriller just around the corner, Weapons Grade (available September 5, 2023). As you can probably guess, the novel focuses on Jack Ryan, Jr. — the son of Jack Ryan (a character first who first appeared in Tom Clancy's The Hunt for the Red October). After Tom Clancy died in 2013, his Jack Ryan books have continued via his family's estimate through a series of various authors.

About the Book

Ever since their world-shattering war ended, the slumbering mecha called 'Giga' have been both gods and habitats for the surviving humans. Then disgraced engineer Evan Calhoun discovers a murdered Giga, and the very fabric of society starts unraveling around him.

A GIANT MECH MURDER MYSTERY.

Nobody knows why the skyscraper-sized mechs known as ‘Giga’ fought their bitter, centuries’ long war. All they know is that when the fighting finally stopped, the dormant Giga became humanity’s new habitat and new gods in one. When disgraced engineer Evan Calhoun finds an apparently murdered Giga, his society and the fascistic tech-centered religious order that controls it are rapidly thrown into chaos.

From writer Alex Paknadel (Friendo, Turncoat, Incursion) and rising star John Le comes another Vault & White Noise partnership about what happens after the mechs stop fighting.

Collects the complete five-issue series.

For fans of Neon Genesis Evangelion, Ultra Mega, and the Department of Truth.

"A well-thought-out sci-fi series...." -- AV Club 

"A world where people take shelter in the rotting husks of giant mechs - smart, fun, beautiful stuff." -- Scott Snyder (Batman, American Vampire, Justice League, Wytches)

"I read GIGA the other day and fell desperately in love with the world they build, and was desperate to spend more time in it and explore. You do NOT want to miss it." -- James Tynion IV (Something is Killing the Children, House of Slaughter, Department of Truth)

My Review

I didn't understand GIGA the first time, and I had to reread it twice to grasp the giant mecha war set before the events of the five-issue run. Alex Paknadel has created a vast giant robot mythology that serves as the foundation and environment of GIGA—a gritty science fiction tale told through stunning illustrations by John Lê. The central plot involves a murder mystery—an apparently murdered GIGA discovered by a disgraced engineer, Evan Calhoun. 

 Overall, I enjoyed reading GIGA—the three times I read it. ╌★★★★✰
