Magebane gets starred review in Publishers Weekly!
Talk about a pleasant surprise. I fired up the iPad briefly before my concert at WorldCon in Reno today (I sang the Donald Swann-composed cycle of songs from Tolkien, called The Road Goes Ever On) and discovered the first review I’ve yet seen of my upcoming Lee Arthur Chane fantasy novel Magebane: but it’s not just any review: it’s a starred review in Publishers Weekly!

Read the whole thing!
Made my day, that’s for sure!
