"I was particularly captivated by Jo Graham's take on Cesare. He and Julia seem to recognise each other as similar predators barely leashed by their current stations in life."

A fascinating review of The Borgia Dove!

@neonhemlock A Death at the Dionysus Club is in conversation with a lot of queer fantasy (KJ Charles and Alexis Hall come to mind) but also with late Victorian detective fiction. Certainly Sherlock Holmes, but also EW Hornung's Raffles stories, as well as Carnacki the Ghost Hunter.

"I relished every word of Borgia Dove. Jo Graham paints these larger-than-life characters in a gloriously dynamic mural with grace and wit." -Sherwood Smith, creator of the Sartorias-deles universe, Nebula award finalist

The Borgia Dove is on the loose!

[Jo Graham @JoGrahamWrites]

It's book day! Yes, I know it's 5:30 in the morning, but I had to get up and check on my book. The Borgia Dove is out in the world!

"...ambition, desire, intrigue and enchantment. La Bella Farnese is a compelling heroine, and author Jo Graham casts her Renaissance spell with a deft hand."- Jacqueline Carey @JCareyAuthor

@Valdez1Antonio Unfortunately I just couldn’t make it work - travel is very awkward between where I am and the con. Hopefully next year I can pull things together better

[Melissa Scott @blueterraplane]

What a great review! (And I totally agree with the historical points.)
