I am maybe a fifth of the way through Al Reynolds new SF noir novel Halcyon Years and its fun. The book really wears its influences on its sleeve. Though I'm still working on whyYuri Gagarin?

Looking like a complete muppet. Christmas Eve, cool and pleasant, and 60 for a while longer. Hope you all have a safe, happy, and healthy holiday season and that I see you in 2025.

Katherine Addison's work is a treat, and The Goblin Emperor was terrific. I was fortunate enough to work on the related novella, The Orb of Cairado, which is coming from @subpress.bsky.social in January. You can pre-order!

My friend Bill over at @subpress.bsky.social asks every Friday what they're reading. Well, it's the end of the year and I have Recommended Reading prep to do for @locusmag.bsky.social, so today's reading is Sofia Samatar's pretty remarkable novella, The Practice, the Horizon, and the Chain.

What's it like getting older, they say? It's exactly like this. You still feel the same, there's still a lot there, but not everything works quite right.
There's also a time when you realise it's raining and you should stop tucking things away.

The kind and generous Scott Edelman has a podcast, Eating the Fantastic. If you're careful to skip the upcoming episode with Gary and me, I'm sure all of the others are well worth your time.

Books of 2023. This incredible Booker long-listee is one of those SF novels that happen just outside the genre that we all need to read. Just remarkable.

I think there are synergies between these two fine 2023 SF/F novels.

Read a terrific review (yet to be published) of Knife Witch, which frankly sounds huge fun. The sort of book Liz Bourke or Tansy Rayner Roberts might love, I think.
