urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:seanan_mcguire The Journal of Seanan McGuire Seanan McGuire 2010-10-10T15:39:20Z urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:seanan_mcguire:279534 2010-10-10T15:39:20Z 2010-10-10T15:39:20Z Jon and Merav making breakfast. So my recent radio silence has been largely the result of the New York Comic Convention, where I have paneled many panels, signed many signatures, shopped much shopping, and slept many sleeps. Honestly, I should probably sleep a few more sleeps, and that's why you're getting a link roundup now. Because I am lazy, and my inbox is exploding.<br /><br />Rena <a href="http://renam2.blogspot.com/2010/10/local-habitation-by-seanan-mcguire.html">has posted a lovely review of <i>A Local Habitation</i></a>, and says that, "There are some interesting twists and turns, and a lot of action&mdash;this book was less about solving the mystery than it was about advancing other aspects of the plot of the series, with some very discreet info dumping." Cool.<br /><br />Wayward Drui <a href="http://waywarddrui.wordpress.com/2010/10/06/an-artificial-night-by-seanan-mcguire/">has posted a review of <i>An Artificial Night</i></a>, and says, "This is the most solid book to come out of this series yet. And the creepiest. And topping <i>A Local Habitation</i> for chill factor was quite the feat in of itself." I'm creepy! Yay!<br /><br />Dave at Dave Does the Blog (love that name) <a href="http://hill-kleerup.org/blog/2010/10/07/review-three-readworthy-books-feed-the-jennifer-morgue-blameless.html">has reviewed <i>Feed</i></a>, and says, "This is ostensibly the first of a series. I’ve rarely read such that didn’t scream for a sequel, but this story works perfectly well stand-alone novel. A really fun, really readable, really engrossing book. Very highly recommended." He's ambivalent about the idea of a sequel, but I'm not.<br /><br />A fabulous review of <i>An Artificial Night</i> <a href="http://www.fromtheshadows.info/2010/10/book-review-artificial-night.html">has been posted at From the Shadows</a>, and says, "I highly recommend <i>An Artificial Night</i> to readers of urban fantasy, paranormal suspense, fantasy, and especially to fans of the Rachel Morgan books by Kim Harrison and The Dresden Files series by Jim Butcher." Yay!<br /><br />Finally for this batch of THE LINKS THE LINKS OH GOD THE LINKS, <a href="http://janicu.wordpress.com/2010/10/05/an-artificial-night-by-seanan-mcguire/">Janicu has posted a review of <i>An Artificial Night</i></a>, and says, "What an awesome series this is. Every time I read one, it manages to make me feel a jittery <i>need</i> to read the next one. Luckily, McGuire seems to be a prolific writer and so far we’ve seen two Toby Daye installments a year." ...prolific, I can do.<br /><br />Anyway, that kills the current batch of links, for which I am very grateful, as it means I can go back to posting the unending archival links (and thus, someday, potentially, end them). I am still in New York, I am still largely away from the keyboard, and I am still dying for a Diet Dr Pepper.<br /><br />IGNITE THE BIOSPHERE!
