a medicine for melancholy

[sergebroom]

I've been feeling a bit melancholy today and my choice of medicine was to either sip some Green Fairy, or go buy a book. I chose the latter and came back with not one but *two* books. One is Seanan McGuire's "Winter Long", an October Daye novel released this week. The other is the first volume in David Mack's "Star Trek: Seekers" series. It's been decades since I bought an ST novel, but I liked what Mack said when a fan criticized him for having homosexual characters in another ST novel. Also this novel's cover design was a clear homage to James Blish's novelizations of the original episodes, and this lifted my spirits without my imbibing any spirit.

Thank you for reminding me that the new Toby Daye book is out! I'll have to pick it up this week.
