This is the first American printing outside of its serialization in Galaxy Magazine!

Not many stylish vignettes to be had, here. I have a phone that deserves a senior discount and all of my upcoming reading is in digital galley form. But look at my new Kindle case!!! Setting a schedule: I'm embarking on Silvia Moreno-Garcia's "Certain Dark Things," followed by the new Datlow-edited anthology "Black Feathers" (#birdlife), then Sarah Avery's "The Imlen Brat."

I don't think I'd get along with Mr. James in the political sense, and his folksy asides are more grating than amusing, but I'm glad SOMEONE understands my need to obsessively catalogue and classify the very many horrible things that humans can do.
