Books for May, 2003
May. 31st, 2003 06:49 pmVery, very short list this month. I'm embarrassed:
Thomas Shippey J.R.R. Tolkien: Author of the Century. I heard Phil Kaveny remark at Minicon that this book was the best piece of literary criticism he'd read all year, which was why he picked it up.

Neil Gaiman Sandman: Seasons of Mist. Yes, I want to keep reading them.
Naomi Kritzer Turning the Storm This is the sequel to the book I blurbed, Fires of the Faithful. I'm pleased to see that she finished off the story quite well. The character of Giavonni quite grew on me. Ever since reading Cyrano de Bergerac I've been a sucker for stories of silent, unrequited love.
Nancy Atherton Aunt Dimity Takes a Holiday
Well, at least all of these were all new reads. But so few books to show for the month Tsk, tsk, Peg. Am now reading Kushner and Sherman's Fall of the Kings That will be on next month's list.
