Tad Williams and John Crowley Feel the Library Journal Love
Both Rite (Tad Williams) and In Other Words (John Crowley) received complimentary reviews in the latest issue of Library Journal, not the easiest venue to crack, so we’re especially pleased.
Library Journal on Rite:
“From a witty yet sinister email exchange that heralds the dawn of a new age (”Not With a Whimper Either”) to a rowdy parody of Michael Moorcock’s tales of Elric, the albino anti-hero (”Go Ask Elric”), this collection of short writings presents another side of a writer known primarily for his novels (Tailchaser’s Song; The War of the Flowers). Characterized by a wickedly keen sense of humor and, at times, a feel for the poignant, Williams’s stories offer insights into the author’s career as well as his growth as a writer.”
…and on In Other Words:
“Although he considers himself neither a scholar nor a historian-”making suggestive remarks is more my job,” he writes–Crowley’s analyses offer a distinctive blend of scholarship, literary history, and readability.”
