I glanced at my cameras to see Rupert smiling over his shoulder at me. Fortunately I had, so all I did was bang around a little. I woke with a start, jumping so sharply I would have put a fist through something if I hadn't had the foresight to lock my suit.

Bibliography Fiction The Crystal Calamity On May 11, 2016, Rachel Aaron won the Best Fantasy Audie Award for her work, Nice Dragons Finish Last, as narrated by Vikas Adam. Publishers Weekly wrote that Heaven's Queen was a 'satisfying conclusion.' Īaron's fantasy work on the Eli Monpress series revolves around a 'legendary and lovable con man.' The first book in the series, The Spirit Thief (2010) starts slow, according to the Publishers Weekly, but becomes a 'romp of lighthearted fantasy.' Awards Kirkus also called Heaven's Queen (2014) a 'stunning conclusion' to the Paradox Series. Publishers Weekly, however, felt that the tropes of the first book in the series were cliché and made up of 'stock set pieces.' Aaron's Paradox Series, including Honor's Knight (2014) deals with ethical questions amid 'great space battles, awesome shootouts and enough betrayals and alliances to rival 'A Game of Thrones,'' according to The Washington Post. Fortune's Pawn also marked Aaron's first time publishing science fiction. The first book in the Paradox Series, Fortune's Pawn (2013), is a type of space opera which was called 'lots of fun' by Kirkus Reviews.
