Three Glowing Reviews from Booklist — Ray Bradbury, Michael Swanwick, David Weber
Without further adieu, three glowing reviews from the new issue of Booklist:
Worlds of Weber (David Weber):
“The creator of Honor Harrington explains this volume’s heft by admitting that he likes to tell long stories, hence his many long novels and the fact that even his short stories aren’t very… they constitute a sampling of what a genius-level storyteller does between novels that is worth adding to most sf collections”
The Best of Michael Swanwick (Michael Swanwick):
“One of the best things about Swanwick’s storytelling is that it is always worth another read. This volume is the perfect package for assuring that his most rereadable fiction is always at hand.”
Summer Morning, Summer Night (Ray Bradbury):
“In the hearts and minds of Bradbury enthusiasts, Green Town, Illinois, is as treasurable in fantastic literature as Baum’s Emerald City or Lewis’ Narnia. Modeled after the author’s boyhood home of Waukegan, idyllic midwestern Green Town was the setting for Bradbury’s novels Dandelion Wine (1957) and Something Wicked This Way Comes (1962) as well as a handful of short stories… Bradbury’s familiar poetic magic sings in every paragraph, reminding his readers why Green Town is worth visiting again and again.”
