There's been another very favourable (and very long) review for my Fall '07 anthology New Writings in the Fantastic, this time by Jim Steel over at Whispers of Wickedness (http://www.ookami.co.uk/html/new_writings_in_the_fantastic.html). Steel highlights a bunch of the stories for further description, in particular liking Steve Redwood's "Hot Cross Son" and especially Kate Riedel's "Song Cycle". His concluding para reads thus:

There is much that is good in here. You can expect to see many of the stories reprinted in the Year’s Best anthologies mentioned at the [review's] start.

Well, I'd hope so. I've been sitting here by the telephone . . .

"I want to read that Riedel story very much, having grown up on a farm myself."

It is a very, very lovely piece. As I started to read it, way back when, I felt that prickle in my nose that told me this was something truly special . . .
