"The book collects dozens of Hurley's essays on feminism, geek culture, and her experiences and insights as a genre writer, including "We Have Always Fought," which won the 2013 Hugo for Best Related Work. The Geek Feminist Revolution will also feature several entirely new essays written specifically for this volume."--Amazon.com.

Review of 'The geek feminist revolution' on 'Goodreads'

4 stars

Really good essays from a pov that I thoroughly appreciate, especially after sampling the author's contributions to the sff realm. Hurley is inspirational and not just for her feminism. She speaks to me as a writer. Although we come to this from different perspectives, I can thoroughly relate to her frustration. This text should be part of a creative writing college curriculum.
