replied on: 8/30/2005 10:53:17 AM just bought horror book from new author cherrie priest-called four and twenty blackbird-----heres review From Publishers Weekly The classic Southern gothic gets an edgy modern makeover in Priest's debut novel about a young woman's investigation into the truth of her origins. What Eden Moore digs up in the roots of her diseased family tree takes her across the South, from the ruins of the Pine Breeze sanitarium in Tennessee to a corpse-filled swamp in Florida, and back in time to the Civil War, when the taint in her family bloodline sets in motion events building only now to a supernatural crescendo. Priest adds little new to the gothic canon, but makes neo-goth chick Eden spunky enough to deal with a variety of cliché menaces—a scheming family matriarch, a brooding Poe-esque mansion and a genealogy greatly confused with inbreeding—that would have sent the genre's traditional wilting violets into hysterics. Eden is a heroine for the aging Buffy crowd, and her adventures will play best to postadolescent horror fans. |

replied on: 9/8/2005 3:11:26 PM In the bookstore yesterday I came across a book that intrigued me. It's called The Simoqin Prophecies by new Indian author Samit Basu. Looks like it will be a fun read. Here's a synopsis: The Simoqin Prophecies marks the debut of an assured new voice. Written with consummate ease and brimming with wit and allusion, it is at once classic SFF and subtle spoof, featuring scantily clad centauresses, flying carpets, pink trolls, belly dancers and homicidal rabbits. Monty Python meets the Ramayana, Alice in Wonderland meets The Lord of the Rings and Robin Hood meets The Arabian Nights in this novel-a breathtaking ride through a world peopled by different races and cultures from mythology and history. Also I got The Complete Grimm's Fairytales. |

replied on: 9/16/2005 6:35:47 PM I understand that Samit's books are quite interesting. He has an author's forum at sffworld.com and I know he is available if anyone wants to talk with him about them. I just bought No Country for Old Men by Cormac McCarthy and I just finished Ender's Game. |
