Paul Lucas

I grew up on the shores of Lake Erie, just a few snow drifts away from Buffalo, NY. I am a life long science fiction and fantasy fan, and avidly keep up on developments in the fields of science, technology, and ancient cultures.Currently I am a freelance writer and artist, with fifteen years of experience in the field. In 1998 I had a tabletop RPG published, and in 2005 my first novel CREATURA came out. My shorter works have seen the light of day in publications such as Strange Horizons, Afterburn, Tales of the Talisman, Fables, and others. Currently I do a lot of personal commissions and ghost writing work.

Reviews for Worlds Of Transformation

[Theodore Brown · Rating: 2 out of 5 stars]

Some of the stories (the first, fourth, and fifth) were honestly really good! Minus one scene, I'd give the first one 5 stars as a stand alone with no questions asked, as I found the ideas in it really intriguing. I'd also probably give the fourth and fifth ones 4 stars, as they were good, but they didn't ring with me in the same way. However:

All of the first three books have a bit of lesbian sex that honestly doesn't serve any purpose but gratuitous fanservice. Some justification could possibly be given to its place in the first story, as it sorta adds some realism to the events where it happens? In the other two, however, it adds nothing, and I'd argue it somewhat detracts from the quality of the story. This isn't me being homophobic - it's me talking from a writer's perspective. I honestly would've given the whole thing 4 or 5 stars if it wasn't for this, but it's unfortunately not something that's easy to overlook
