Big backlog on reviews, but will work on it.
My daughter has consented to watch ST:TOS and I am constantly dumbfounded by Shatner's luminous beauty, always sweating/glowing under the studio lights, giving him a dewy masculinity that's such a huge contrast to the other, craggier male castmembers. He's even regularly lit like a femme fatale, a band of light across his eyes, though they don't blur the lens for him the way they do when a young woman is the only one in frame. (Uhura gets the blur, I was deeply relieved to see; she and Spock are already my daughter's favorites.)
Foz Meadows, A Tyranny of Queens: ( out of order )
( Austen, Emma, Northanger Abbey, Persuasion )
C.L. Polk, The Midnight Bargain: ( magic and patriarchy )
Chuck Wendig, Blackbirds: ( seeing people's deaths )
David Brin, The Best of David Brin: ( short stories )
Chuck Wendig, The Book of Accidents: ( if you're jonesing for King )
