Five short takes with six notes

( The Wrong Reflection, Gillian Bradshaw )

( Collected Poems, Richard Wilbur )

( Elizabeth Willey )

( The Will of the Empress, Tamora Pierce )

( James Branch Cabell )

1. Unfortunately, I can't name the real genre without massive spoilers.
2. Er, no, I don't know what that means. But it sounds lovely.
3. Now, of course, I get to wait through at least five novels for the story of Tris at Lightsbridge University. Small arghs. Many, many small arghs.
4. Though to be honest, I've always preferred the Circle books over Tortal, Protector of the Small not withstanding.
5. Not much of a spoiler given it's in the online excerpt.
