Yay Sox! It will be waiting for me to read this weekend, after I finish my book club book...
Reavers ain't men. Or they forgot how to be. Now they're just nothing. They got out to the edge of the galaxy, to that place of nothing, and that's what they became.

Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Now that my internet is working again, I can order Sox's book!
My shelf of Buffista books makes me so happy.

Sox, is the one character on the cover of your novella supposed to look like you? Because it totally does, to me...

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Sox, I read it without coming up for a breath, and it's wonderful.

Agreed. I need to read it again, but first I had to go find and reread The Topaz Marquise. This is only my third favorite Sox-verse, but it ranks way up there in general.

This is wonderful to hear. Thank you, Amych and t- (if I can ask what are the other two?)

#1 is the one with, oh gosh I beta-read that story so long ago I will probably get all the details but it had to do with debt and a caper and I want to say a circus? I may have muddled it up, but I love that world so much.
#2 is Updraft/Cloudbound. To be fair, I may only love it more than Gemworld because I know more about it (ie know enough to have SO MANY QUESTIONS), but that's the current standing.
