The __Cas Russell__ trilogy didn't end as well as it began. I'll finish Eglinski's __TimeTravel__ trilogy, even though it's clear she's not a <a href="https://lor.sh/tags/ScienceFiction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ScienceFiction</span></a> writer, and I could stop, given that the individual novels in this thematic trilogy are unconnected from each other.</p><p>I'll likely read more Molly Thynne, especially since I'd previously read _The Murder on the Enriqueta_ and she only has four more mysteries to her name. I'll skip her genfic novel.</p><p>Usually a grid of novel covers accompanies this, but the novels I read this month had boring covers. Describing a title with grey text on white with two bullets for decoration&nbsp;– or a picture of a beach at sunset, or an extreme closeup of an eyeball&nbsp;– seems pointless. So I'll skip that and just post the calendar.<br>***</p><p>[1] A reply to this post repeats brief descriptions of the novels. For descriptions of the shorter tales, see the weekly posts. Most non-novels this month come from single-author collections (Paul Ernst, Rog Phillips, John Wyndham²) or multi-author anthologies:</p><p>New Adventures in Space Opera - Jonathan Strahan, ed.<br>Legends of Science Fiction: 1950 - Christopher Broschell, ed.<br>The Alien Chronicles - David Gatewood, ed.</p><p>[2] Finished _More of the Essential John Wyndham_. I'll likely finish _The Essential Rog Phillips_ next month. Both edited by Christopher Broschell.</p>
