Fantasy/sci fi lovers: I have good books for you!

[modernwizard]

Bet most of you [that means 2 out of my 3 readers] don't know that I write sci-fi/fantasy reviews for The Fix Online. I'll be linking from the Blog of Eternal Stench to my reviews at The Fix from now on. Anyway, for those interested in fairy tales, gothic baroque writing a la Tanith Lee or Angela Carter, not to mention a semi-Byronic hero who meets his match, check out my latest review of the novella The Duke in His Castle by my friend Vera Nazarian. To get a taste of her energetic, precise, creative and engaging style, read the complementary interview I did with her.

Here's my other work at The Fix:
