I really appreciated the quality of the prose, for all the piece was very short; there was a lot of subtle and informative detail and some really delicious descriptive prose. The Lamenters have absolutely no luck in any other respect, but they were lu ...more |

More Trazyn is always welcome - and I really enjoyed the little glimpse into the higher workings of the necrons, their worldview (or lack of it), and of course all their glorious Space Skeletor politics. Absolute banger of a final dialogue too. |

A fun little romp! There's some absolutely zinger lines in here, for a story that took maybe 10 minutes for me to read end to end. Honestly, I was a little disappointed that there wasn't more - this setup could be a great plotline for a full Cain stor ...more |

| An entertaining little book, if a bit disjointed - I'd have appreciated, I think, fewer stories with a bit more focus; some tales or inclusions felt much worthier than others, and some were a little repetitive. ...more | |

| I really, really enjoyed this book; eminently readable, generally well paced, and presenting a nicely balanced view of where historical record simply runs out of the material and the author has to list possibilities rather than being able to share so ...more | |

“Once I got away from him, I was smart enough to stay away from him. To hunt that one is as wise as to go hunting a porcupine.
I cannot leave this alone, Nighteyes.
I understand. I am the same about porcupines.”

“He'll be down with the books. My old septon used to say books are dead men talking. Dead men should keep quiet is what I say. No one wants to hear a dead man's yabber.”

“I think there are two types of writers, the architects and the gardeners. The architects plan everything ahead of time, like an architect building a house. They know how many rooms are going to be in the house, what kind of roof they're going to have, where the wires are going to run, what kind of plumbing there's going to be. They have the whole thing designed and blueprinted out before they even nail the first board up. The gardeners dig a hole, drop in a seed and water it. They kind of know what seed it is, they know if planted a fantasy seed or mystery seed or whatever. But as the plant comes up and they water it, they don't know how many branches it's going to have, they find out as it grows. And I'm much more a gardener than an architect.”
