Deanna Raybourn posted a link to a fan's artistic rendition of her character --Mr. Nicholas Brisbane. As I know a few of you are admirers of Mr. Brisbane, I thought I'd post the link. Perhaps it'll help tide you over till the 4th Lady Julia Grey novel. He's really quite lovely. Scar and all. I recently ran across this rather whimsical site called The Book Seer . You enter the book you just read (along with the author) and it generates a series of books recommendations for you. They seem to be drawn from Amazon , LibraryThing , and BookArmy . This might not prove excessively useful but it's good for a spot of fun and some messing around. I keep a long list of upcoming books I'm looking forward to and Rosemary and Rue by Seanan McGuire was a fairly recent addition. Rosemary and Rue is the first in a new urban fantasy series and it looks thoroughly promising. To get a taste of what's to come go read this excerpt Ms. McGuire has posted on her site.
