Today’s choice of outstanding sci-fi is J. D. Sanderson’s “A Footstep Echo” (https://t.co/f5Smk9BiyX). Echo is an independently minded and independently authored amazing work, and in honor of all incredible franchises in all the galaxies of speculative fiction, we’re not going to pass including this one on our lists. Under that cover, we found a tale that is compellingly unique in its presentation and style. Supposing you are as versed in this sort of thing as us, you should have a quick look at how fans react. According to one reader, “J. D. Sanderson has come on the literary scene with an absolute home-run of a story. I love mystery and action fiction, and always seem to get into the rut of reading the same authors that I like over and over. Sanderson is a very welcome, refreshing new talent who has created a wonderfully woven tale that’s a totally engaging, fast-paced roller coaster of a ride…from the very first chapter to the close of the back cover when you’re finished. Sanderson does an excellent job of character development, and provides the whole range of personalities from the elderly Bernard Abbey who invokes empathy from the moment he is introduced, to the contemptable, well, you’ll have to decide which characters fit into that bucket because there are surprises around every corner! And, not unlike the Star Trek series which I have loved for 50+ years, A Footstep Echo provides some very interesting food for thought about the human race and the possibilities for our impact on the future, both hopeful and frightening.” If you’ve been kind enough to read our lovingly crafted review, you should go one small step further and get your own copy. If not, subscribe for email updates until we discover the next big science fiction author of our time. We expect it’ll be well worth the wait.
