Here is an obituary I’ve been dreading. We lost Ursula K. LeGuin this week. It is impossible for me to calculate what LeGuin gave to the speculative fiction field, to women and to the world. I know what she gave to me; hours of magic; models for strength and truth in the face of oppression and corruption, and often, plenty of laughter. Here is the New York Times obituary.

Darkness Falling: Searching for home… in between fighting aliens and politicians

Darkness Falling by Ian Douglas

And in this case, the plot of The Glass Town Game (2017) almost defies description.
