		<description><![CDATA[	I started reading Steve Martin&#8217;s &#8216;Shopgirl&#8217; Saturday night, and although I&#8217;ve not finished it, I did see the movie which thus far has tracked the written story very closely, so I&#8217;m writing what amounts to a review.

This is notable for a couple reasons. First, I&#8217;m pretty sure it&#8217;s the first book (granted a novella in [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[	If you&#8217;ve read my other reviews of Asher&#8217;s books (The Skinner and Cowl) you know I&#8217;ve his books a great deal. While I didn&#8217;t find Grindlinked as good as those first two, it&#8217;s still an excellent read.

Gridlinked is set in the same universe as The Skinner (which I will call the &#8216;Polity&#8217; universe) but shares [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[	Tainaron is the first book I&#8217;ve read by Leena Krohn, a Finnish author. The book is subtitled &#8216;Mail From Another City&#8217; (_Postia Toisesta Kaupungista_ in Finnish) and is a collection of thirty fantastic letters written by a visitor to the city of Tainaron. Accordingly, it is not a large book, only 124 pages, and 15 [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[	I&#8217;ve read a fair number of ::Philip K. Dick::&#8217;s novels, but didn&#8217;t manage to get around to Minority Report before the movie version came out &#8211; and obviously it took me a couple more years to get around to it. Like most stories translated to film, more than a few liberties were taken with the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[	When I found out Clemens was starting a new fantasy series, I was very excited. I&#8217;d read his Banned and the Banished series and loved it. The first volume of The Godslayer Chronicles almost lived up to my very high expectations.

The basic premise of Godslayer is a fairly simple one: a man, a former knight [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[	I&#8217;ve been terribly remiss in posting reviews of what I&#8217;ve been reading. So, since I&#8217;ve no illusions about me actually writing full reviews of all of these, I&#8217;m just going to give capsule reviews.
