ellenkushnerBecause I am a lazy vaux-rien, I will not write here the love letter that Kathe Koja's new novel, Under the Poppy, deserves. Instead I pass you over to the capable (and infinitely productive) hands of my beloved colleague, Cory Doctorow, with whose review on BoingBoing I entirely agree. Especially the Tom Waits part.
Delia & I both read this a few months ago in ARCs, and we've been sitting on our hands waiting to tell you about it once it was actually possible to get a copy. Which you should do Right Now, as it is hot hot hot - your bad slashy self will thank you, if you've got one - and if you haven't. you can just go swimming in the prose.
This book is hot like chocolate, rich & dense & bittersweet.
Also, check out the Book Video on the Small Beer Press page!
