Double Blind — Max Gladstone
Tanya and the Host make a break for it while Gabe seeks redemption in the latest episode of The Witch Who Came in from the Cold, the spellbinding online serial that mixes conspiracy, suspense, and sorcery like a collaboration between John le Carré and Neil Gaiman.
A high-stakes cat-and-mouse game unfolds across the frozen streets of Prague as Tanya and Nadia employ spycraft and witchcraft alike to elude the agents of the Flame and get a terrified young Host to an Ice safehouse. But Gabe is also on their trail, attuned to the Host thanks to his own burgeoning magic and desperate to atone for past failures. What could possibly go wrong?
This episode is brought to you by Max Gladstone, who has done his fair share of vodka swigging. Na zdraví
"The Witch Who Came in from the Cold is a chilly evocation of a different kind of Cold War" "Charles Stross, author of the Laundry Files series
"The diabolical secret weapon of serialized storytelling is that each bit just whets your appetite for more. When can I have the next one?" "Marie Brennan, author of A Natural History of Dragons and the Memoirs of Lady Trent
“Take a double shot of Le Carré, a dash of Deighton, a twist of Quiller, a splash of Al Stewart's “The Year of the Cat,” throw in a jigger full of elemental magic, mix well ... and voilà! The Witch Who Came In From The Cold.” "Victor Milán, author of The Dinosaur Lords
Location: Prague. Time: 1970. Two things this city was lousy with: spies and witches. “As soon as I saw that, I was instantly hooked, and the pilot jacked the intrigue to the max. Two female Soviet spy witches, an American spy with something weird drilling magical holes in his head, and a world of secrets within secrets in a locale where old-world myth and the Cold War face off, pedal to the metal . . . it's awesome. Or as we said in 1970, Far out.” "Sherwood Smith, author Crown Duel
