A few things that have come to my attention of late:

• first, Jeff VanderMeer’s cool new novel, Shriek: An Afterword, will be on sale in Australia in about six weeks. Check out the info on the book at the link above or over at Jeff’s website.
• second, John Clute has an interesting, if puzzled, review of Andrew Butler’s Christopher Priest: The Interaction, over at Strange Horizons.
