The Guardian reviews Sound Mind by Tricia Sullivan

- Post a Comment

Tricia Sullivan, who wins my 'top opening paragraph of all time' award (for Dreaming In Smoke) has had her latest novel reviewed in The Guardian.

As a recap, Jon Courtenay Grimwood used to do the genre reviews for The Guardian and they scrapped his column. So the plus side is that they are still reviewing Science Fiction. The negative side is that it starts like this...

"How frustrating to be a great writer who happens to work in sci-fi. For every Jeff Noon or Neal Stephenson who breaks out to wider arenas, there's a Tricia Sullivan or a Jeff Vandermeer stuck on the shelves in that bit of the bookstore where most of you never wander. Hearteningly, Sullivan may be nearing escape velocity, and about time, too."

Hopefully he means in terms of sales.
Anyway, Sound Mind sounds cool. Added to my Wish List.
