The Lamb Will Slaughter the Lion (2017)
(Danielle Cain, book 1)
Margaret Killjoy
"Packed with mystery, suspense, intriguing characters, a dash of humor, and big helpings of anarchist politics, The Lamb Will Slaughter the Lion does what the best fantasy is supposed to do, making ideas literal--in this case, incarnating Justice as a wild beast."
thumb
Standard Candles (1996)
Jack McDevitt
"It's not McDevitt's style, though his prose is wonderfully clear and deceptively simple. It's not his plots, though his stories always ask hard questions, and never settle for easy answers. For me it's his humanity. McDevitt understands the way people talk and think and behave, and still somehow has boundless compassion for the human animal."
