Reviews and another "Best of..."

Hi all,

Mark Chitty of the Walker of Worlds blog has just written a very nice review of Eric Brown's Cosmopath, the third Bengal Station novel. Ten out of ten!

He's also put the second Bengal Station, Xenopath, fifth in his list of the best books of 2009 (as he only gave Xenopath nine out of ten, I'll expect to see Cosmopath high in his list next year).

And with Justin Gustainis' Evil Ways now out in A-format paperback, Mark's reminded us of the review he wrote for that one, too.

Cheers, Mark!

2009 was a very good year.

2009 was a good year, wasn't it! In addition to David's post of earlier today...

The Fantasy Book Critic picked Tim Akers' Heart of Veridon and James Maxey's Dragonseed as two of the top books of 2009. The Solaris Book of New Science Fiction (volume three) was also on the list as one of 2009's best anthologies.

Several short stories from The Solaris Book of New Science Fiction made it onto the longlist for the BSFA Awards. So go vote for them if you can!

Also, review blog The Bibliphile Stalker has awarded some short stories from our 2009 anthologies New Tales Inspired by Edger Allen Poe, and The Solaris Book of New Science Fiction, it's Bibliophile Stalker Awards.

Phew. The pressure's on for 2010, then!

Best of the Year!

Hi all,

The genre-fiction webzine Strange Horizons has declared the Solaris Book of New SF, Volume 3 as one of the best genre books of 2009.

Which is nice.
