Yeah, I know, I have been quiet. I have a huge amount of stuff to do before I head off to Canada to see Kevin (and possibly attend SMOFcon, though that’s a very minor attraction in comparison). Progress is being made, sort of.

Anyway, today I am off to Bath for the next meeting of The Emporium Strikes Back, the Mr B’s science fiction book club. Today we will be discussing Vurt, which I have just had the pleasure of re-reading. I will be fascinated to see what the rest of the group has made of it.

Also it is my turn to suggest books for the next meeting. I have been asked to pick three. Naturally they are all science fiction books by women with some sort of feminist element to them. I’ll tell you tomorrow which ones they were, and which one the group finally chose. In the meantime you can amuse yourselves by trying to guess which three I picked.
