which is not a comment on my life, but the title of the new Simon Green novel. I just finished it and I can only say this: holy cow. Followed by, “you effer.”

It’s a great, fun, novel that introduces us to an ancient Drood enemy and host of traitors. It ends with one heck of a cliffhanger (hence the ‘effer’ reference).

In other news: I owe y’all a bunch of writing, going all the way back to Ashland in early June. I’ll try to get to that this weekend, in and amongst the packing.
