At the moment, I'm in the chem department, so I sincerely hope I'm a chemistry major...
Book critic? Me? This is off-the-cuff whinging about the bad stuff and ecstatic one-liners about the good stories. Book critics grow up and turn into tedious Post Book Week employees. (They're currently on the List of Authority Wannabes. Any major magazine that manages to read "Anathema Device" as "Anastasia Device" in their Good Omens review deserves my mockery and non-respect.)
I also suspect book critics are *shudder* english majors.
Thanks for bringing Service of the Sword to my attention; don't know how that slipped by me. (I do read a few other folks, but nobody blows 'em up like Mr. Weber).
No problem. Like I said, it's a mix of strong and middling stories. Worth checking out of the library or buying used, or possibly buying in paperback, depending on your entertainment budget.
