An unexpected consequence of Boskone
Feb. 16th, 2009 07:38 pmI just told the library to ship me _Tom Swift and His Monster Machine_, nominally by Victor Appleton the Undead but actually written by James MacDonald and Debra Doyle.
I sat with Jim for an hour, learning that, indeed, there will be another Peter Crossman novel -- written but in need of editing before being sent off for publication -- and hearing one of the worst jokes of all time.
Good times, indeed.
I had meant to spend the time in a discussion of Shadow Unit, but nobody else showed up. It wasn't well-publicized, was up against a major panel, and had no designated leader.
