In an Absent Dream

In an Absent Dream, Seanan McGuire. Hugo novella and book, um, four? yes, four, of the Wayward Children series. This is another prequel story, which, like the last prequel, didn't especially interest me. There are people who can pull off a story where we already know the end, and still make it surprising how we get there, or make us care in a fresh way, but McGuire is really not one of those authors for me. Must have worked for a bunch of people though since it's on the Hugo ballot, so, like, I'm glad McGuire is writing this series people love! Yay! For my purposes, at least it was a fast read.
