I only managed to read two short stories today because I had to go out into the excitement that is the east end of London where I live and get some money out of the ATM. I also took the opportunity to eat brunch and wander round the local supermarket – boy do I have an exciting life!
I also finally got around to ringing the Ear Nose and Throat people at the local hospital for an appointment, but was told they hadn’t released any yet and all the ones they had were full. So the post-nasal drip drips on. (I told you about the exciting life.)
Again, spoilers. Please do not read if spoilers bother you. Of course, if you wouldn’t have read these stories anyway, have at it.
( Turncoat by Steve Rzasa )
( The Parliament of Beasts and Birds, John C. Wright )
Having now read all the short stories, I’m really hoping that the slate entries on the rest of the list are better than their short story nominations. So far, the only one which seemed to me to be of a good standard was the one I reviewed yesterday by Kary English, “Totaled.”
