| Twice Told Tales |
| Nathaniel Hawthorne (1804 - 1864) |
Edgar Allan Poe reviewed this collection of short stories and said:
"The style of Hawthorne is purity itself. His tone is singularly effective -- wild, plaintive, thoughtful, and in full accordance with his themes."
He concluded that,
"we look upon him as one of the few men of indisputable genius to whom our country has as yet given birth."

| Blind Shrike |
| Richard Kadrey ( - ) |
"The book is titled Blind Shrike. It's not a rotten book, I think. In fact, it's a pretty traditional fantasy quest, just one that, to me, makes sense in George W. Bush's America. The hero of the story is on a quest for his own lost ignorance and innocence. He really doesn't want to know too much because, as many of us have learned, too much information is a soul-sucking pain in the ass. In the book you'll also find magic and monsters, angels and demons, magical swords and forbidden books. And blimps. Every fantasy novel should have at least one blimp." -- Richard Kadrey
