For some reason, a lot more of what I’ve been reading lately has been non-fiction, including two books by David McCullough — The Wright Brothers and The Johnstown Flood, both of which I found most interesting. The only F&SF book that I’ve read recently that I can recommend without reservations is one that many have already noted, but I’ll add my approval to theirs, and that is Aliette de Bodard’s The House of Shattered Wings. I also had fun with Lois McMaster Bujold’s novella, Penric’s Demon.
