I’m not a good review writer — and I don’t usually read Fantasy but have been an avid SF reader for the past 62 years; I only bought #Spiderlight because I’m a huge fan of #Adrian_Tchaikovsky’s SF works, so I just wanted to give it a try.
So … I just want to say that I haven’t had this much fun with a fantasy novel since I read #Fritz_Leiber’s stories around #Fafhrd and the #Gray_Mouser 🙂 Strongly recommended!

The TL;DR of this review is that it's TL;DR. Still, Leiber fanatics may find it of interest.

Re-reading „The Snow Women“…

„Day ran away over the ice-fanged horizon, as if she were afraid of the dark.“

Leiber always was a great writer - not just a great fantasy and SF writer. #fritzleiber #fafhrd #nehwon
