'Very good, and the thing most like JS&MN I have read in a long time, which is fine praise. Set in an alternative Oxford run on the magical and mystical properties of silver and arcane languages, underpinning the British Empire. Really enjoyed reading it, have put Huang's other books on my list, although they appear to have been Young Adult fiction up until now. Today I went in to Newbury for the first time since COVID, and the transformation was incredible, It was absolutely deserted, I arrived quite early but even so it could have been the weekend. What a change from the bustle and buzz before COVID. It was like Ratingen, long corridors and vast areas with no-one there. Further redundancies have been announced, it feels like this could be it for those of us left in the UK. Let's see, I've had a good run.
