Absolutely brilliant.
A set of essays that vary in quality and subject matter. Some emphasize history of a genre or subdivision, others are more based on literary theory.
Quite heavy reading. Extremely informative and well researched as is expected of a Cambridge Companion. However there is some confusion regarding Urban fantasy and paranormal romance.

It's a text in dialogue with a lot of other work, including The Vorkosigan Companion, A Reader's Companion to A Civil Campaign, Jo Walton and the author herself. It's always nice when an author you like writes a book you like about a subject you like.… (altro)
