Review; Adieu

[leahbobet]

For the first part of these two things that taste great together, The Green Man Review reviews Clockwork Phoenix, saying the following about meeeee!:

"Bell, Book, and Candle," by Leah Bobet, is a brutally absorbing depiction of the anthropomorphic personifications of the title instruments. What would you imagine their lives to be like, if these key instruments of excommunication were flesh and blood? I'm terribly fond of stories that humanize archetypes well, and this story succeeds painfully and delightfully.

Woot.

The second bit is that I'm headed off to Austin tomorrow for CupcakeCarnitaClimbingConcertCanineCthulhuCookingCatsCorsetryCon going over to stillsostrange's house to play. So if you need something, I'll be vaguely checking e-mail, but...I'm not here. :p

Adieu, adieu, to you and you and you. Back Sunday!

I'm not entirely sure that Laird Barron's "The Occultation" made sense, but it had an amazing way with atmosphere. In fact, the atmosphere in this story of a couple creeping themselves out over the nothing in the dark that might actually just be something in the dark is so skillfully handled that it actually resulted in me being creeped out. In a nicely lit room.

:D
