Two Nice Things + the Heraldry of Illness

[snurri]

First, Rich Horton says nice things about The Sun Inside:

"The Sun Inside" is a bit of a surprise -- one of the best novellas of the year that not many people saw -- a Pellucidar story, in which the hero, an Iraq War vet with an artificial leg, falls for a woman he meets online who turns out to live in the center of the Earth. The story begins as an examination of the wonders of this world (the dinosaurs and all) but turns into a mature exploration of the political realities implied. Very fine work.

The other nice thing I cannot tell you about yet. Partly because I am not sure I believe it.

On the flip side, Argent Influenza Rampant in these parts has brought me low. Luckily I have soup.

Where can one buy The Sun Inside? A Google search on the publisher seems to bring up blog mentions rather than a publisher's website.

Congrats!

Thanks, Amy! The link above takes you to the publisher's page, where the chapbook is purchase-able via PayPal.

Oh duh! I'm a little slow on the uptake today.

BTW, proof that positive reviews have an impact. ;-)

Indeed! Reviews have been sparse for that one, unfortunately.

Hurray for secret good news! And for The Sun Inside!
