Cover Girl

Locus - February 2016So yeah, that’s the cover of the new issue of Locus. As you can see, it has my name on it. Obviously there are a lot of other names too. That’s because it is the Recommended Reading List issue, and a whole bunch of us who contributed to that list have been asked to write short “year in review” pieces. Mine is sort of an “Own Voices” thing, and yes I do talk about trans stuff. I also talk about Sami and Arabic fantasy, and as wide a range of other stuff as I could fit in.

You can find the whole Recommended Reading List here. If your favorite book isn’t on it, please don’t yell at me. Firstly, I can’t read everything, and secondly they don’t allow a book onto the list on just one person’s say-so.

Elsewhere in the issue I am delighted to see some good coverage for Carter & Lovecraft. Well done, Jonathan!
