Love in the U.S. of A.
By(and Canada).
Well, lookie here! Just a day after we announce our ambitions to take over the Western World (see yesterdays post) we get sent links from all over Canada and the US, exclaiming just how happy people are!
Here are a few of the best:
Canadian Cream is a new book blog set up by Kell Harker, with the sole intention of reviewing Angry Robot’s books, which is totally freakin’ cool (to use the parlance of today’s youth).
Kell has started with one of our launch titles – Slights – and seems to have quite liked it, based on the following:
The writing is so powerful that I often felt as if I was an intruder in the mind of serial killer Stephanie (Stevie). That’s what made it so freaking terrifying. Usually I’m not scared when reading books in the horror genre, but Slights was able to tap into my fear of aloneness, and gave me nightmares… Slights is truly frightening, and therefore highly recommended.

Next up, those fine reporters of all things genre over at io9.
We’re pretty excited for the Angry Robot release schedule, not least because it’s bringing some authors to our shores who deserve more love.
All our authors deserve love. Some already have it, others are starting to get it, and others still might even pay for it, but who are we to judge?
Anyway, finally (for now), over at Poisoned Rationality, we’re told that:
They’re [sic] current fleet of authors are some interesting folk that take the gamut from noir historical scifi to chinese inspired fantasy and everything you can possibly think of in between.
Yeah, that’s a pretty good summary, especially that “everything you can think of in between”, though we might be tempted to add “and a whole bunch more you couldn’t possibly dream of.”
Hell – we’re so mean at Angry Robot we even hang our prepositions!
