Upcoming changes

This is a relatively short post, but one that shall serve as an upcoming events type. In the next few weeks, there will be quite a bit of renewed activity, both here and at Other Fantasy. Plans are underway to create a special Reviews section for in-depth reviews of the latest in speculative fiction, as well as a few other wrinkles that ought to please many who visit regularly. We have begun a renewed commitment to bringing to our readers a greater awareness of what looks to be a fine bumper crop of young (or new, if you prefer to think of those over your age as "old", typed with a wry grin) talent.

Here, there will be many more reviews posted, as well as commentary on issues pertaining to the genres of the speculative and their fans. Expect to see in the next week or so an interview with Patrick Rothfuss, author of The Name of the Wind, a review of David Anthony Durham's upcoming Acacia: The War with the Mein, some reflections on the types of writings and stories that I enjoy most, and perhaps even Hobbit frolicking. There may also be a few surprises in store, depending on what can be arranged in the coming weeks. So do keep checking this site for more, as there shall be a lot more exclusive material here than ever before.

Well, Gene Wolfe's upcoming Pirate Freedom is quite ápropos, no?

Ooer, yes. :D

Don't expect me to "shiver your timbers" with a spoilery review, though...

A simple review will do.

And my timbers do not shiver, they are contained, dignified and strong.
