![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() The book was picked up by Saga Press and published last year. Octavia Cade said it was “Ankh-Morpork meets Ambergris… If you like spores, and you like the City Watch, you’ll like this.” It made a significant splash in a self-published edition that appeared in 2019. The Dawnhounds has a fascinating history. Some of my Worldcon 2022 haul (minus all the paperbacks ’cause they took up too much room) Tamsyn Muir says it’s “Part police procedural, part queer fever dream, and part love letter to a city that doesn’t exist.” One of them was The Dawnhounds, an unusual (to say the least) debut novel by Sascha Stronach, a Māori-inspired fantasy about a murdered police officer brought back to life with a mysterious new power, and tasked with protecting her city from an insidious evil. I came away with a number of delightful finds (see the pic below for the bulk of my haul). But it’s still nice to walk the aisles of a major Dealers Room, like the one at Worldcon here in Chicago last fall. Cover by Bo Mooreīetween online sources like Amazon and my bi-weekly trips to Barnes & Noble in nearby Geneva, IL, my book needs are generally well met.
