I'm going to be doing some joint talks with Katie Hickman in April. I really must read The Aviary Gate.

Just started on a UK ARC of Devil's Brood... I may be gone for some time :)

Just got a package at work today that included an arc of Jeanne Kalogridis' The Devil's Queen. I'm hoping I can take a stab at it this weekend.
