New Book, World Saved

No shiny new Mac yet (boo), but a new book. My habit is slowing down actually, only the one this week. Having harangued my students about the inappropriate nature of the term Dark Ages, I've bought a novel set in precisely that. It's John James's interesting Men Went to Cattraeth, a historical novel set in the post-Roman period and heavily informed by Welsh poetry of the time. I gather that Neil Gaiman is arranging the republication of James's first novel, Votan.
