Websites of Wonder

As I mentioned, I've been reading more lately and this includes websites and web comics, on top of image searches for various things that lead me from one site to another .. a seemingly endless trail.  Its a good way to explore the world.

In the absence of anything interesting to tell you about in the goings on in my life, I'll share with you some of the sites that have fascinated me.

This site, The Antick Musings of G.B.H. Hornswoggler, Gent., is interesting for its name alone.  However, the icing here is that author, one Andrew Wheeler, has spent a couple of decades in the book biz, including some time at Science Fiction Book Club, which is why I recognize his name.  I followed a link about the author Steven Brust, who is one of my favorites.  You can download his Firefly novel from the link on his name.




This next link, for Jeff Vandermeer's Ecstatic Days, came about as a result of a comment I read about not needing to like characters in order to enjoy a book.  Like a spiralbound notebook used for too many things, the site seems to be much in need of some dog-eared page marking.  A task I don't mind taking on.

 

Lastly, the link to Tor Books which, while as yet uninvestigated, promises to hold hours and hours of entertainment.
Enjoy!
