Book Review: Cahokia Jazz by Francis Spufford
I loved Cahokia Jazz’s blending of noir mystery, mysticism and religion, worldbuilding, action, and as signaled by the title, music.
Book Review: Even Though I Knew the End, by C.L. Polk
I adored C.L. Polk’s Even Though I Knew the End, a sapphic noir novella set in an urban fantasy version of 1941 Chicago. It opens strongly, unwraps the mystery as a relationship drama unfolds, and includes some breathtaking prose along the way.
Book Review: Wolfman Confidential, by Justin Robinson
Reviewer’s note: the author of the below reviewed book is an internet friend of mine for whom I often serve as a beta reader and who has helped me to promote my own books in the past. So I’m not 100% objective here. But I wouldn’t go to the effort of writing this if I didn’t think this book was worth your attention, dear readers. We here at Skiffy and Fanty enjoy a good genre mash-up, and in Werewolf Confidential, Justin S. Robinson’s third volume in his City of Devils series*, we’ve got an absolutely smashing example of one.
