  • @DeannaHoak Hope everyone is ok. I had to do that on my mother once. I was glad, too. #
  • I now have 2 Xbox 360s set up in my place. Until I can transfer everything to the new one. My gamertag is Rajanyk if anyone is interested. #
  • The holiday is playing havoc with the bus schedule but hope is in sight. #
  • Played some Force Unleashed last night. I can see why people like it – incredibly fun. And the story is pretty interesting, too. #
  • I need to start posting better blog entries. Twitter is fine and easier to update, but I miss regular blogging. #
  • I hope Scarlet Johansson doesn’t end up as the Black Widow in the second Iron Man flick. I really do. #
  • @johnjosephadams Well, to begin with, she’s horrible at accents (see The Prestige). And I don’t really think she’s that great an actress. #
  • @tdelucci You have off today? I am jealous… #
  • So new Facebook TOS makes its use extremely unwise. *sigh* I don’t want to have to take down my stuff, but I will… #
  • Sorry to those with questions. I tried to RT something but I guess it didn’t go through. New Facebook TOS says they can use anything there. #
  • RT @feliciaday Er wow, the new Facebook TOS are kinda disturbing… http://is.gd/jDf4 #
  • The day is speeding by. And of course I have so much to do at work… #
  • I have the song, Daisy Bell, stuck in my head, which is impossible, of course, to separate from 2001. Complete with it running down… #
  • @ecmyers On Xbox. I thought the same thing (esp since it was discounted around the holiday) but I read that the graphics really suffered. #
  • @tdelucci Leftover Chinese trumps toast in my book. Which is what I usually have. #

  • I don’t care what anyone says, The Fountain is one of the most beautiful and touching movies I’ve ever seen. #
  • My first look at the DC Universe Online MMO game is up on Tor.com: http://tinyurl.com/awfqru #

  • The Cake Man’s Red Velvet Cake is indeed as amazing as its reputation claims. And it was a perfect Valentine’s Day dessert. #

  • Tonight’s choice: Troegs imperial amber Nugget Nectar. Apricoty and sweet. #
  • When did Friday become a decent night of television? Tonight, I guess… #
  • On the other hand, watching this week’s Heroes and it doesnt’ seem any better than it was. #
  • Without giving spoilers, am I the only one who thought of Patrick Stewart during one of the lines in the teaser of BSG tonight? #
  • @thejordache Pablo was trying to get your email. If you have his, can you send it to him? Or message me and I’ll pass it on. #
  • I don’t know why, but Jeff Goldblum on that Law & Order show may just get me to watch. #
  • @ecmyers If you mean the Patrick Stewart thing, it’s a little obscure. #
  • @jimboweb @tdelucci Can I also participate if I’m up to date by then? Oh, and what T said – say hi to Paul from me. #
  • @edenrobins Yes I did. Sorry. I’ve been really bad at email lately. It looks awesome. Thanks for arranging it. #

  • @feliciaday That’s awesome. So looking forward to it #
  • @jimboweb cool. I wasn’t sure you were still going. Have fun and say hi to Kristin for me. #
  • Coffee makes everything better. Except genocide. #
  • I just read that Caitlin Kiernan wrote a zeppelins on Mars story, like a story I wrote once. But she did far more research – link to follow #
  • http://tinyurl.com/bg46uh #
  • @tdelucci I think I might check it out myself, now. Whenever it comes out. #
  • I keep having to remind myself that today’s Friday which is nice, but also scary how quickly the week went. #
  • Some days I really, really wish I could quit the writing. #
  • @ecmyers – why so early today? Is the company superstitious? #
  • @ecmyers Long weekend? President’s Day? I do not get a day off… #
  • Started a beer journal. Drank last night – Southampton Imperial Baltic Porter and Pennichuck Pozharnik Imperial Stout. Both excellent. #

  • Feeling a bit more like myself today. More than I have in a little while. That’s promising… #
  • Today might be a White Album kind of day. #
  • I’m waiting to talk about Lost today. Not in an urgent way. But I always appreciate the insights of others. Not “Others”. #
  • Hurray! Lost discussion on Tor.com: http://tinyurl.com/cjhz6c #
  • @edenrobins I had no idea there was such a thing. Is it creamy? #
  • @therinth Awesome. That’s a great story. #
  • I’m done with Inspector Lestrade for the time being. Which is something of a relief. #
  • Put the finishing touches on a story and an article on my lunch break. So far off to a productive start. #
  • I love that Barcade not only lists their current drafts, but they also link to the beeradvocate reviews: http://www.barcadebrooklyn.com/ #
  • I’m considering starting a beer journal. Keep notes on styles and tastes of various kinds. One of my pocket moleskines, perhaps. #
  • I love that @DemetriMartin and @arjbarker are on Twitter. #
  • @doctorow Congrats! #
  • After perusing the beer list, I’m ready for a nice porter or stout. It’s making me salivate. #
  • @jimboweb You can do it. It will go quickly. #

Raining Fire – Out now!

Raining Fire, the third and final book in the Ben Gold series, was released on July 18, 2017. This book concludes the story begun in Falling Sky and Rising Tide. Publisher’s Weekly said, “Khanna wraps up his postapocalyptic adventure series with a capable page-turner…the airships, slavers, cannibalistic Ferals, and visceral action scenes make this a worthy culmination to the series.”

Available at Amazon and Barnes & Noble now.

Rising Tide -Out now!


Rising Tide, the sequel to Falling Sky, was released on October 6, 2015. Publisher's Weekly said, "Khanna crafts a terrifyingly dismal picture of the future, raising the stakes by gradually stripping Ben of friends and support while throwing him into increasingly dire situations. His worldbuilding remains solid and unsettling, and he never loses sight of the human element. The cliffhanger ending is sure to leave readers on the edges of their seats, panting for resolution."

Falling Sky – Out now!


Falling Sky, my first novel, came out October 7, 2014 from Pyr. It's an adventure story set in a post-apocalyptic future with airships. Publisher's Weekly called it a "solid and memorable debut" while Library Journal gave it a starred review and named it Debut of the Month. For more information, please click here.
