Maypole

Fantastic Literature’s May book list is here.

Drabble II is in it, and is becoming rather collectible although not, I suspect, because of my story. Interzone 246 is also listed.

There is obviously not enough space to review everything and it should be stated that the absence of a review is no reflection on the quality of the book. Editing is a messy business and sometimes a great book will fall by the wayside for all sorts of reasons. Feel free to use the links to browse any of the books that look of interest.

Hope I haven’t missed anyone out. Apologies if I have; please let me know and I will rectify it.
