Good evening, morning, afternoon, whatever it is for you. I mean that sincerely, for what it's worth. I haven't read any Brian Stableford – he seems to be a reputable sci-fi/fantasy author, or at least a veteran one – but I'm curious what this one's about.

| I chose a blurry cover cuz centaur BOOBS. 1996. Jacket summary: "In London in 1895, Professor Edward Copplestone recounts his visits to the future under the influence of drugs to a group of historical and imaginary personages, including H.G. Welles, Oscar Wilde, and the mysterious Count Lugard, revealing that humankind will eventually be ruled by vampires." But whither the faun and centaur? |
You probably asked the same question I did, "How good are hooved creatures at climbing trees?" Goats, sure, are excellent at scaling cliff walls (with all four legs), but even with human arms it must have been a mighty struggle for the centaur. Maybe that's what the book is about. I was promised vampires so there better be vampires is what I'm saying.
(In reality, I just finished Monsters by Claire Dederer yesterday. I was going to write a mini review, but that's too hard rn. Lucky you.
Haven't read a novel yet this year. Maybe it's time to start The Milkman, but Disillusioned is waiting for me at the library.)
What's up with everyone?
