You may or may not remember that I've got a story appearing in <i>A Fantasy Medley 2</i> from Subterranean Press, due out this November. This is a spectacularly lovely limited-edition book, featuring stories from me, Tanya Huff, Amanda Downum, and Jasper Kent. And when I say "limited," I mean it: the print run is restricted to 224 numbered copies signed by the authors and editor, and 1,500 fully cloth bound hardcover copies. That's it. No more copies will be made.<br /><br />But! That's not all! We just got a <i>starred review</i> from Publishers Weekly! <a href="http://www.publishersweekly.com/978-1-59606-514-7">You can read the full review right here</a>, and here's what they had to say about my story, "Rat-Catcher":<br /><br />"Seanan McGuire's "Rat-Catcher," set hundreds of years before her October Daye books, is both charming and gut-wrenching."<br /><br />Yay!<br /><br />So anyway, I'm just <a href="http://subterraneanpress.com/store/product_detail/a_fantasy_medley_2">gonna leave the link to the ordering page over here, for those who might be interested</a>. It really is a beautiful book, and if you want to read Tybalt's origin story, this is the way to do it.<br /><br />(Note: "Rat-Catcher" happens hundreds of years before the main series, and doesn't impact anything. It's just background. I really love it, but it is not essential to read and enjoy the books. I promise.)<br /><br />Squee!
