Reviews of "Curse of the Myrmelon" in Locus
In the current edition of Locus, there are a couple of good reviews of “Curse of the Myrmelon,” my latest Raffalon/Cascor story in the July/August issue of The Magazine of Fantasy & Science Fiction.
Gardner Dozois says, “Matthew Hughes gives us another entertaining Vancian sword and sorcery adventure.”
And Rich Horton says, “This is, as with most of Hughes’s work, very good fun in a quite plausible version of one aspect of Jack Vance’s voice.”
I’ll take comparisons to Jack Vance any day.
And for anyone who's counting, I'm back at work on the historical novel and am just past 130,000 words.

I might do some prequels, before the problem with magic. I kind of like the way I left him, in Hespira, on the cusp of a decision.
Cheers!
