Reviews for 4/16

Entertainment Weekly's April 20th issue has a review of Greg Bear's Quantico (first published in the US by the SFBC a year ago) and capsule reviews of Jim Butcher's White Night (also available in the SFBC omnibus Wizard Under Fire), Patrick Rothfuss's The Name of the Wind, Natasha Mostert's Season of the Witch, and Jose Carlos Somoza's Zig Zag. None of those seem to be online at the moment, but here's their book review front page, if that helps.

Sci Fi Weekly's new column by John Clute is a review of the Library of America omnibus of Philip K. Dick's work, Four Novels of the 1960s. It is perhaps even more Clutian than Clute has been before, as witness "Note how love makes radiant the electric toad."
