Interzone 195 has arrived

My copy of Interzone 195 has arrived and it's looking splendid despite the dog getting to it first (his teeth only penetrated a few pages!).

So far I've read the non fiction:

• An editorial from Jetse and Andy. It's nice to hear the voice of the editors especially as they are so committed to doing a great job.
• Ansible by David Langford, informative and witty as usual (plus a large picture of Neil Gaiman, perhaps that's to try and get any ladies skimming it on the shelves to buy it?).
• Anime-Ted by Andrew Osmond, a review of some recent manga films. I found this interesting as the last manga film I watched was probably Akira. The column brought me up to date and added some films to my To-Watch list.
• Lots of book reviews (8 pages), including full pages for Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell and The Algebraist.
• A great interview with Ken MacLeod. If you haven't read his Fall Revolution quartet you really should (The Star Fraction, The Stone Canal, The Cassini Division and The Sky Road).
• Mutant Popcorn (film reviews) by Nick Lowe. Funny as ever.

I'm looking forward settling down quietly and reading the fiction.
