"Companion to Owls"

The March 2006 issue of Asimov's Science Fiction should be on bookstore shelves now, which contains my story "Companion to Owls," along with all sorts of other goodness. Over at the Internet Review of Science Fiction (registration required), Lois Tilton recommends the story, saying "Roberson’s Cathedral is a wondrous and fantastic creation where we know that marvels will be found, even if they seem quite normal to Steeplejack North. A fine new setting for many traditional fantasy elements." Suzanne Church provides a review of the story for Tangent Online, and seems to like it, too.

I've started making preliminary notes for a novel set in the world of this story, which would be my first attempt at a full-blown, secondary world fantasy, for what it's worth.

Comments:
Oh damn, and I just realized my subscription to Asimov's has run out! Well, at least now I'll have that little extra bit of motivation to sign back on...
 
The Cathedral is an outstanding world for additional stories. Before I was even half way through Companion to Owls I was eager to lean more about this structure.
