In honor of City of Blades coming out, I re-read American Elsewhere, which–fun story–I hate-bought because the cover (and title) looked so much like American Gods. “Well this is going to be bullshit” I said, probably out loud, probably to myself in a crowded bookstore, probably earning myself nervous glances. And then, readers, it wasn’t. …

Happy New Year, Geekly Magic fans, and welcome back to Magic Gatherings! I’m back myself after a year-end hiatus and excited to get back to writing. I hope you didn’t miss me too much! (Please say you missed me. Just a little?) It feels like I start half my articles this way, but we already …

A huge menacing Balor directs the demons as they charge ahead. The heroes, atop their flying griffons, wonder just how they came to be in this situation. How …
