Kate Hardy

Hardy, Kate - Londonia

A futuristic (borderline dystopian) novel, just the sort of book I normally shun.

Underwood

I noticed Dear Dead Women by Edna Underwood on Tartarus' low stock and ordered before it disappeared.

Re: Forthcoming Books

It could be argued that there's a certain elitism guiding Joshi's ranking, an elitism with romantic assumptions. The supposition is that the less known an author is the more quality work he or she is...

Re: Octavia E. Butler against Lovecraft (World Fantasy Award).

H. P. Lovecraft himself profited from ideas he took from other writers, while being critical of them, so I don't really see the issue. Lovecraft dying in poverty – as with anybody dying in poverty –...

Re: Robert Aickman

For me, it largely defeats the purpose of reading for entertainment. I'm okay with the basic marketing categories, to get an idea of the tone of a writer's work. But I find the idea of increasingly...
