Quoted

[peteryoung]

This afternoon in Waterstones I picked up the new Gollancz paperback edition of Roger Levy's Icarus, and on the back cover I read the quote: "There are few authors who explore the pitfalls and danger zones of human psychology as deeply or with such intensity as Levy".

Then I thought to myself, "Er, didn't I write that?" I most certainly did, in this Strange Horizons review.

My first pull-quote, then. Shame you can't see the small grin on my face.

Did they not credit you, or Strange Horizons?

They credited Strange Horizons. Langford I ain't!

Damn, we could have had another of of our three-way chats while you serve the book-buying public!

Don't need to see it; that's why we were issued imaginations. (Except, let me tell you, over here that is not a small grin...)

Cool!

(SH pull-quotes are not so common that I don't still get excited about them myself ...)

"Amazing" was all that made it to the paperback of Tricia Sullivan's Maul from my review in Vector so you've done fantastically well to have a proper sentence.

I got quite chuffed the first (and only) time that happened to me. I ended up buying the book again ...

[peteyoung.livejournal.com]

Was it a book I'm likely to have?

[swisstone.livejournal.com]

Not unless you've bought this.

[peteyoung.livejournal.com]

Yep, reckoned it might be something like that!
