Me, elsewhere
Well, the DVD of The Ark is out, and indeed debuted at No 1 on the UK TV DVD chart: I somehow doubt, however, that this was due to my presence as a talking head on it. Also out are the new SF Masterworks editions of Gibson and Sterling’s The Difference Engine and Priest’s The Prestige, both with introductions by me; and the SF Foundation’s book on Doctor Who, The Unsilent Library, co-edited and with a paper by me.
Meanwhile, I’ve just blogged over at the Locus Roundtable about the National Theatre’s new production of Frankenstein, and a piece about Doris Lessing’s Canopus in Argos sequence appeared in the February edition of Locus – also online.
And, in other news, the most fascinating (if profane) work of speculative fiction I’ve read recently is the fake tweets of @mayoremanuel : if you missed him before he vanished into a time vortex, or lack the requisite lifelong knowledge of Chicago politics, Bill Shunn has the necessary briefing.
