Compact Crit. #12 - The Books of Babel, by Josiah Bancroft
(In particular: Arm of the Sphinx)
I am publishing this (flattering) comment from author Josiah Bancroft about my review of Arm of the Sphinx, not primarily because I am chuffed that I got the review right, but because he mentions an important correction: the book is not part of a trilogy, as I had thought, but in fact part of a tetralogy with two more books to come. The next work in the series is The Hod King, due out in Dec, 2018. The title of book no. 4 is unknown at this stage.
“First, let me say thank you so much for the wonderful and thoughtful review of Arm of the Sphinx. I enjoyed reading your thoughts very much. (One small note, the series will actually be a four-book series when all is said and done. I know, Amazon and several other outlets have it listed as a trilogy. Despite my best efforts, I haven’t been able to convince them that it is not, in fact, a trilogy.) I really appreciate your time and effort in putting the review together. Thank you.” (July 12, 2018)
