Today's double review!
The Hencha Queen by J. Scott Coatsworth:
Ulysses: "A richly painted world that is both beautiful and sinister, evoking landscapes that are as much science fiction as Tolkiensian fantasy. 5 stars."
Maryann: "I highly recommend The Hencha Queen, an intense read that I couldn’t put down."

Today's queer spec fic review: Deficient by Michael Solis
"A superb debut novel filled with humor, suspense, action, mystery, and many surprises. The ideas in the book have a lot of potential as a series, and the story will appeal to many beyond its core young adult audience. Worth the read!"
