Book Review: Lady Slings the Booze

I understood this to be a sequel to Callahan's Crosstime Saloon, but it bears no more resemblance to its predecessor than That Hideous Strength bears to the rest of the Space Trilogy. For starters, while set in New York City, it makes no mention of the saloon. Mike Callahan gets only occasional scenes and doesn't really affect the plot. It's not even a series of short stories; it's a novel.

( Cut for length )

Without meaning to, I've begun another partly comedic book, Spindle's End by Robin McKinley. Heh, from Robinson to Robin.
