UNDER THE POPPY by Kathe Koja

Because I am a lazy vaux-rien, I will not write here the love letter that Kathe Koja's new novel, Under the Poppy, deserves.  Instead I pass you over to the capable (and infinitely productive) hands of  my beloved colleague, Cory Doctorow, with whose review on BoingBoing I entirely agree.  Especially the Tom Waits part.

Every time you recommend books, I feel an overwhelming urge to go out and buy them! But I'm poor grad student who will have to move out of Canada in about 6 months, I do not need to keep buying books now!

Try the public library? Make sure they order it! There's also an e-book version...

So happy that my library has ordered copies! I would have nudged our Collection Development director if we hadn't!

Excellent!

Ooh, I much enjoyed her early books under the Abyss imprint, and this looks fabulous.

[ellen_kushner]

Let me know what you think!

[rachelmanija]

That sounds great - and I want to own it for the cover alone!

[ellen_kushner]

Oh, Rachel, you'll love it! Enjoy - and spread the word, if you do.
