A spoiler free book review of A Memory Called Empire and A Desolation Called Peace by Arkady Martine - a stunning work of science fiction. Available in bookstores everywhere on 2 March 2021. My thanks to Tor Books and Netgalley for the ARC. Also, in the video I describe it as Star Wars meets Ready Player One when I meant Star Trek meets Enders Game - and my only excuse is that my brain is currently mush and I couldnt wait to reshoot this video and publish it because Im super excited about this book! Sorry if that bothers you, please save your energy and refrain from leaving rude comments, thanks.

1) What is your favourite book from this genre?
2) What book are you currently reading/just finished from this genre?
3) What book on your TBR from this genre do you think you’ll read next?

EM Hulls The Sheik inspired an entire subgenre: the desert romance. Captive brides, oversexed Arabs, complex forms of racism and garbled sexual kinks have kept it going. A little dive into the subject.
