How’s Business 

by Don Blyly 

We had a very good December, 

partly due to the lack of blizzard, ice 

storms, snow drifts, etc., that we had to 

endure the year before. But it was a very 

good December even compared to a 

normal year. January and February 

continued to be good compared to last 

year, but were nothing to brag about 

compared to an average year. Heating 

costs being down about 1/3 from last 

year helped. 

Monday, January 9, I was in the 

store early when I heard somebody 

walking around on my roof around 8:30 

a.m. I went out to see what was going 

on, and saw the dentist from next door 

on my roof. I asked him what he was 

doing on my roof, and he said 

“Photographing the evidence–come on 

up and take a look.” Overnight 

somebody had gotten onto the roof and 

cut out the cooling coils from his two 

rooftop heating/air conditioning units 

and my two rooftop units. His units had 

been cut up in such a way that his heat 

also was not working, but both of my 

units were still putting out heat. When 

the repair guy showed up, he said that 

there’s been a lot of this going on all 

over the metro area. When I called my 

insurance company, I was told that this 

has been going on all over the country. 

The police say that 10 properties in the 

immediate area have been hit with the 

same problem. The police have some 

not-very-good security camera photos of 

a suspect and have been trying to 

identify the guy, but no luck yet. The 

dentist’s insurance company replaced his 

17-year-old units with new units at no 

cost to him. My insurance company will 

be repairing my 2 units (one of which 

was only 4 months old when it was 

damaged) with $1000 coming out of my 

pocket, and they sent a letter that if I 

have another claim within a year they 

will probably refuse to insure me again. 

On the morning of January 25 I 

received a call from the management of 

the apartment complex for the elderly 

where my mother had lived for the last 

14 years, telling me that my mother had 

just been found to have died overnight. 

I was told that the police would have to 

come and look over the scene to see if 

there was anything suspicious, and when 

the police were done management would 

daughter of a man he still sees as a traitor. And as reality continues to unravel around them, 

Jianna soon finds her love imprisoned for the crime of rebellion and sentenced to death)

call the funeral home–so I should wait 

until the afternoon to come over. My 

mother had shown me where she kept 

her cash in the apartment and told me to 

come over immediately when she died 

before things started disappearing. 

When I got to the apartment about an 

hour and a half after the phone call, her 

cash, her keys, and her credit card were 

all missing, but mountains of other stuff 

had not disappeared. At work, I often 

feel like a horde of ducks are trying to 

nibble me to death, and now the horde of 

ducks has received massive reinforcements. 

I’ve been very busy 

dealing with the funeral home, family, 

the social security administration, her 

credit card company, bank accounts, 

etc., and especially with sorting through 

all her stuff and trying to clear her 

apartment. I can feel myself falling 

farther and farther behind on things that 

should be done at the store. 

Last issue I mentioned one 

publisher that wanted to start charging 

an extra $8.00 for signed copies of some 

new hardcovers. They decided to 

instead charge an extra $1.00, which I 

think is justifiable because of the added 

expense of binding in the signature sheet 

and using a different ISBN and barcode 

on the dust jacket for the signed copies 

(instead of using the same ISBN and 

barcode on the dust jacket, and just 

sticking a “Signed Copy” sticker on the 

front, like everybody else does). Of 

course, using a different ISBN for the 

signed copies means that sales of the 

signed copies won’t combine with sales 

of the unsigned copies for best seller 

charts, which has some authors unhappy 

even though they will make a few cents 

more per book in royalties from the 

signed copies. 

For many years there was a 

Blockbuster Video about 3 blocks from 

my home, and often on a Saturday 

evening after I got home from work I’d 

walk over to Blockbuster and look for 

something to rent. A few years ago I 

noticed that I seldom found anything I 

was interested in watching. While some 

of the problem was Blockbuster’s 

buying, most of the problem was that 

Hollywood was not producing much that 

I was interested in watching. Now, the 

publishers are complaining about how 

much sales have dropped for mass 

market paperbacks, but when I look at 

the new release section at The Uncles, I

ooks on the shelf I’m not interested in 

reading. I can remember when most of 

the mass market new releases at Uncle 

Hugo’s would have an initial order of at 

least 15 copies, and would sell out. 

Now, half the spaces on the new release 

shelf is taken up with titles that I only 

ordered 3 to 5 copies, and many of those 

will only sell 1 copy. There are still 

some titles that I’ll order 20 to 30 copies 

initially and I’ll sell all of them, but there 

are a lot fewer such titles being 

published. What’s especially painful is 

when a publisher has a series with a 

substantial following at Uncle Hugo’s 

(such as Lyda Morehouse’s series or 

Kristine Kathryn Rusch’s Retrieval 

Artist series) and the publisher kills the 

series even though the author and the 

readers want the series to continue. It 

seems that the publishers are so obsessed 

with hitting a home run with a title that 

will sell like crazy at Target, Walmart, 

and Sam’s Club that they don’t care 

about supporting moderately popular 

mid-list authors. 

There are now hundreds of 

thousands of self-published titles 

available. A few are very good, some 

are okay, and most are dreadful. In 

many cases the authors got suckered by 

unscrupulous publishers, who took the 

authors’ money knowing that the book 

would never be able to sell more than a 

few cases to the authors, which the 

authors will have to store in their closets 

for the rest of their lives. Many of these 

books have never been edited, spellchecked, 

grammar-checked, etc., and are 

offered at high prices and low discounts 

that guarantee that a bookstore will 

never buy a copy. For an extreme 

example of this, check out

Short Recommendations 

by Don Blyly 

Before I started reading A 

Madness of Angels by Kate Griffin 

($7.99) I had heard several very 

favorable comments, which is fortunate 

because otherwise I would have given up 

on it after about 20 pages. It’s about 50 

pages into the book before the reader 

gets a clue as to what’s going on, and 

finally on page 238 the reader is 

provided with the background needed to 

understand what has been happening up 

to that point. (Most readers don’t find 

this as irritating as I found it.) 

This is the first of a series of 

urban fantasies unlike any other urban 

fantasy series. Magic exists everywhere, 

but it is different in urban settings than in 

rural settings, and the urban magics 

featured in this series are extremely 

interesting. Among the magical 

elements are the blue electric angels, 

which evolved in the telephone lines and 

then extended to all electric media. 

They feed on all telephone 

conversations, all e-mails, and all of the 

internet. They thought they understood 

humans until they became part of a 

human sorcerer in modern London. The 

sorcerer, now partly human and partly 

electric angels, is the main character for 

the series, but there are lots of other very 

interesting urban magical characters in 

the series. 

Although I was irritated about 

some of the writing early in the first 

book, by the time I finished the book I 

was completely hooked and immediately 

moved on to The Midnight Mayer (#2, 

$7.99) and The Neon Court (#3, $7.99) 

and I’m now impatiently waiting for The 

Minority Council (#4, $7.99, early 

March). Each book tells a complete 

story, but they should be read in order. 

Leviathan Wakes by James S. 

A. Corey ($15.99) is the most satisfying 

space opera I’ve read in a few years. 

Humans have spread through the solar 

system, and are preparing the first 

generation ship to go to the stars. Mars 

is independent of Earth and has it’s own 

military fleet. The asteroid belt and 

outer planets are to some extent 

controlled by Mars, to some extend by 

Earth, and to some extent by huge 

corporations, but there is a revolutionary 

group that wants independence for the

Sargent, Pamela Earthseed (Seed #1: Reissue; YA; Ship's mission is to find a habitable world for 15-

view of two very different characters: 

Jim Holder, who was sent with a few 

other crew members in a shuttle on an 

ill-fated rescue mission by the captain of 

a freighter hauling ice from the rings of 

Saturn to the belt, and Detective Miller, 

a burned-out cop on Ceres who was 

assigned the task of searching for a 

missing girl and then was fired when he 

took the assignment too seriously. As 

war breaks out, Holder believes that he 

should broadcast everything he knows 

and let other people figure out what’s 

really going on. Miller is great at 

figuring out clues nobody else notices, 

but likes to keep everything to himself 

until he has the entire puzzle figured out. 

And then there is the two- billion-yearold 

alien artifact that a huge corporation 

secretly found orbiting Saturn, which 

could dictate the fate of the human race. 

The first book comes to a satisfactory 

conclusion (no cliff-hangers), but at least 

two more books are promised in the 

series. 

I finally got around to reading 

The Native Star by M. K. Hobson, 

which appeared on several best of the 

year lists for 2010 and was a Nebula 

Award nominee, and I enjoyed it very 

much. This alternate history fantasy is 

set in a world where the Union used 

Warlocks to help win the Civil War, and 

after the war continued to use Warlocks 

to advance the country’s “manifest 

destiny”. In 1876 Emily Edwards, a 

small town witch in California, acquires 

an enchanted artifact (or perhaps the 

artifact acquires her) and suddenly she 

has to flee for her life from evil 

government Warlocks, with the 

assistance of Dreadnought Stanton, a 

pompous and abrasive non-government 

Warlock from New York City. Much of 

the book is an entertaining flight across 

the country by horse, train, and 

biomechanical flying device. Most of 

the bad guys are dealt with by the end of 

the book, but there’s still that pesky 

blood-thirsty Aztec goddess that wants 

to destroy the world, who gets dealt with 

in The Hidden Goddess ($7.99). Both 

books have more romance that I’d 

prefer, but they are both so entertaining 

that I’m happy to recommend them.

($26.99, due early April, signed copies 

expected) feels a bit different than his 

other books. It feels more like a 

historical novel set mainly in the Parisian 

art world of the late 1800's, with some 

fantasy elements and some funny bits 

(including some laugh-out-loud funny 

bits) mixed into the historical novel. 

There are many colors of paint 

available to artists, most available from 

multiple sources, but there is a very 

special color of blue paint, sacre bleu, 

which is superior to all other shades of 

blue, and it is only available from one 

source. And the price (not in the 

monetary sense) of using sacre bleu is 

very high to any artist who uses it. 

Baker-turned-painter Lucien Lessard and 

bon vivant Henri Toulouse-Lautrec try to 

solve the mystery of sacre bleu, and it is 

a very strange mystery. 

A Rising Thunder by David 

Weber ($26.00, due early March) is the 

latest in the Honor Harrington series, 

#17 in the universe. Although this is one 

that supposedly features Honor as the 

main character, she doesn’t show up 

until about 1/4 of the way through the 

book, and much of the book follows 

other characters. The Solarian League 

and Manticore are at war, battles are 

fought, secrets are revealed, new 

alliances are forged. The only 

disappointment is when you reach the 

end of the book and realize you have to 

wait for the next installment to find out 

what happens next.
