Conjure Wife is Fritz Leiber’s classic urban witchery novel, at a reasonable Kindle price, by mainstream publishing standards (which is to say, it’s on sale). Pick it up for Cyber Monday! Or now. Now would be good, too.

Book of the Week: Fritz Leiber: Selected Stories.
I picked Fritz Leiber: Selected Stories because, inexplicably, somebody hasn’t put together the definitive Fritz Leiber collection on Kindle yet; nor have they converted Nights Black Agents into electronic form. This amazes me. I mean, I see things out there on Amazon that people apparently thought were more important to work on than straightening out Kindle’s appalling Fritz Leiber shortage. For shame, publishing industry. For shame.
And so, adieu to Callahan’s Crosstime Saloon.
Book of the Week: Our Lady of Darkness.
I’m using the Tor Bundle edition of Our Lady of Darkness because the other book – Conjure Wife – is extremely good, too. Which you can reasonably expect from Fritz Leiber, of course. In this particular case, Leiber wrote a crackerjack horror story about how a city itself can be the Monster: HP Lovecraft would have loved it, when he was done being totally scandalized. Seriously. The man might have even had a cardiac event.
And so, adieu to Earthrise.
