Reviews of The Textile Planet

Here is an interesting story that moves very quickly, perhaps too quickly. It’s well done, and it will keep the reader’s attention. — Paul Lappen, Dead Trees Review

Written as a satire and by turns funny and oddly depressing, it’s easy to recognize our own culture in Lange’s world. This is the sort of future most of us will find easy to believe in, and might even recognize ourselves in a few places. — Genre Reviews

Reviews of We, Robots

“…a delightful book” — Sam Tomaino, Space and Time magazine “Initially this appears to be a short book with a small story; actually this is a big story.” — Ardys DeLu, Femspec “This novella makes for a great book to share with friends for a discussion around a dinner table, or for a book club willing to think about what makes us human.” — John Ottinger, Grasping for the Wind

“terrific writer” — Jordan Rich, WBZ, Boston radio Check out the dj.

“Its a moving, entertaining, and moralistic tale that I not only recommend but feel should be required reading in schools.
