The DeBaser reviews under the name Ian McDonald refer to two verifiable, distinct figures: a musician who is described as a co-founder of King Crimson and the author Ian McDonald (born 1960) known for science-fiction works such as the Everness series and Luna: New Moon.

From the reviews: the musician's solo album 'Drivers Eyes' features contributors mentioned by name (Peter Sinfield, John Wetton, Michael Giles, Steve Hackett, Peter Frampton, Ian Lloyd, Steve Holley). The author Ian McDonald (b.1960) is the creator of the Everness series (Planesrunner; protagonist Everett Singh; concepts such as the Infundibulum and the Panoply) and the Luna trilogy (Luna: New Moon; characters such as Adriana Corta; plot elements like helium-3 and lunar economic dynasties).

DeBaser hosts a handful of reviews under the name Ian McDonald covering two distinct careers: a solo album by the King Crimson co-founder and several science-fiction novels by the author Ian McDonald. The album Drivers Eyes is reviewed positively for performances and production; the novels receive mixed reactions (Be My Enemy scored lower, Luna: New Moon scored well). Reviews highlight collaborators on the album and recurring themes/characters in the novels.

For:Fans of progressive-rock history and readers of contemporary science fiction/space opera.

 I am sure you'll be quite intrigued to know what the only solo album, definitely a rarity practically unknown to the Italian audience, of the King Crimson co-founder is like, which benefits in its production from a line-up and contributions of the highest level.

 A great wealth of content and ideas compose the science fiction imagination of "Everness" by Ian McDonald, a true series inaugurated with "Planesrunner" (2011), of which the first three chapters have been published to date.

 In the case of this relatively copious novel by Ian McDonald titled "Luna: New Moon," we return to the Moon in a purely science fiction context where our satellite has eventually become a terrain of conquest and colonization by humans under environmental, structural, and social conditions reconstructed in a hypothetical and dystopian manner—rightfully science fiction, but not for this reason extremely implausible, essentially based on already known scientific subjects or in any case the object of speculation and research.
