So, I haven't posted since, like, March, and you might be wondering why I'm breaking radio silence ....

Mira Grant's Deadline, sequel to Feed, which was one of the two best books I read last year (the other one was Liz Hand's Generation Loss, to which, sadly, there will probably not be a sequel).

Go forth.  Read it.  And then come and dissect it with me ....

I have not read them, alas, but I am commenting because I thought you would be amused to know that China Mieville briefly confused us tonight. We win again!

Ha! I really feel like we need to put together some kind of an identification chart, like they have to show the suble differences between the corn snake and the copperhead ....

Yes. You would think the...what is it, 6-7 inches of height difference would help, but apparently not when the other party is sitting.
