Welcome!
Hello, Mikerogers, and welcome to the ISFDB Wiki! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are some pages that you might find helpful:
- Help pages
- Field-by-field guide to entering new publications into the database
- Help:Getting Started
- What the ISFDB Wiki is for
- FAQ
- Wiki editing help - Tips on how to use the wiki-specific features when editing wiki pages.
- Wiki Conventions - How things are usually done on this wiki.
- Help:How to upload images to the ISFDB wiki
Note: Image uploading isn't entirely automated. You're uploading the files to the wiki which will then have to be linked to the database by editing the publication record.
Please be careful in editing publications that have been primary verified by other editors. See Help:How to verify data#Making changes to verified pubs. But if you have a copy of an unverified publication, verifying it can be quite helpful. See Help:How to verify data for detailed information.
I hope you enjoy editing here! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will insert your name and the date. If you need help, check out the community portal, or ask me on my talk page. Again, welcome! -- JLaTondre (talk) 19:10, 1 April 2021 (EDT)
SPOTREPS - A Maelstrom Rising Anthology
I holding your submission for "SPOTREPS - A Maelstrom Rising Anthology". The ISFDB definition of speculative fiction can be found here. We exclude techno-thrillers and other works set in a future indistinguishable from the present. Based on the descriptions I can find, this book seems to fall in that category. Is there any speculative fiction (as in science fiction and fantasy) in it? Thanks. -- JLaTondre (talk) 19:10, 1 April 2021 (EDT)
I think its more Alternate history. The story I know from the Anthology is Larry Correia story Baizuo, his summary of the the story "I got to write the Baizuo eye view of the Communist Chinese invasion of Portland"<ref>https://monsterhunternation.com/2020/07/14/ive-got-a-story-in-spotreps-a-maelstrom-rising-anthology/</ref>
The Maelstrom Rising series itself is big into the science of next gen military warfare. That said its a very hard line to draw with current and future weapons' systems being the sci-fi of yesteryear.
Hope that help. Thanks for the website I just found and its very cool Mikerogers 22:18, 1 April 2021 (EDT)
