There's a kickstarter going to help fund The Worlds of Ursula Le Guin documentary
(I've been blogging for nine years now, and have done this round up over 300 times, which is a lot of work (what with searching through well over a thousand blog posts every week to find the links). So I went ahead and added the "buy me coffee" button over on the right, though I have conflicting feelings about it....)
So cool on the Kickstarter! Looking forward to checking out the reviews you've linked to. But first...finishing up CHARMED. Am in fairytale heaven I must say.
ReplyDeleteThe Lie Tree is wonderful, but is historical fiction, can't recall any fantasy. Is it being marketed that way?
ReplyDeleteOh! Thanks. I haven't read it, and haven't been reading reviews real closely (because of wanting to read it fresh-ish) and just defaulted to Hardginge = fantasy...
DeleteI think you deserve at least a cup of coffee, and I'll see what I can do about it when I have a little more time. In the meantime, thanks for linking to my review of The Tune Is in the Tree. I also wrote a review last week of The Nargun and the Stars by Patricia Wrightson, also a fantasy story from the well-known Australian author. If you've not read it, I think you might like it, Charlotte.

Thanks! I will put Nargun in next Sunday.
