Just picked up Bobiverse, book 1, on Audiobooks and love your style.

So if it’s not your thing, Ola, that’s OK, the rest of us will continue to party on in the Bobiverse. I’d happily give these books to people who think SF is ‘too hard’ or ‘too technical’, since the all the SF elements are so seamlessly woven into the fabric of character and story, and it’s really hard not to fall in love with the Bobs, and the humour is superlative! (I think people at the gym are getting used to me laughing out loud from time to time.) Oh, and ditto all the software/hardware stuff. I remember at the time thinking that it was extremely skilful – I can direct you to a few SF books which don’t do it nearly as well :). It was explained just enough for me to get the hang of it, without pulling me out of the story. The same goes for the physics – in which I am absolutely no expert – which is an essential part of military strategy in the books. (Noting that I’m fine with ground-based stuff, but when it comes to air, sea or outer space, I’m not your girl.) are written (just ask my poor fellow writers who ask me to review such things – but they keep coming back, so either they are masochists, or I’m being helpful, or both) and I never got pulled out of the story thinking ‘that wouldn’t happen’ or ‘that character wouldn’t act that way’. I am very picky about how military characters, strategy etc. It’s not military SF and the Bobs are reluctant (though capable) operators in that sphere. I’m alternating between this and Earthside, as one or the other roadblocks on me.Ĭheck Status of Things for up-to-date information on how it’s going.Īs an ex-military person, I thought the books had the right ‘touch’ for that aspect. I’ve been saying ‘real soon now’ on this one for literally years, but now I’m under contract, so it’ll likely be the next book after the Bender books. We are Legion (We are Bob) Amazon AudibleĮarthside: A sequel to Outland. I’m open to suggestions, comments, ideas, or whatever. I hope my novels will give you a few hours of entertainment and escape. I am a retired computer programmer, snowboarder, mountain-biker, runner, and now author. I share that distinction with several other authors and a couple of musicians, unfortunately.
