BCS #153 and #154 were reviewed last weekend by Locus online reviewer Lois Tilton, including one story lauded with her rare “Recommended” rating.

From BCS #153, she called “Make No Promises” by Rachel Halpern “A nicely-done tale of godhood, the burdens of rule, and the tension between free will and pre-destiny. Recommended.“

From BCS #154, she said of “Seeing” by Stephen V. Ramey, “The politics of the story here are more complex, more messy, with different interests in conflict with others. The warlord Morshimon proves to be... particularly complex”.

Congratulations, all!
