Blood feuds and beautiful concubines

New science fiction and fantasy this month includes a Harlan Ellison retrospective and titles about cuckolded sorcerers and Magi wars. Conor Corderoy's 'Dark rain' is set on dying Earth, where the super-rich experience crime-free luxury in Domes and the rest of humanity lives outside in endless rain. Mel Odom's 'The destruction of the books' features "lowly librarians" who must save the precious volumes of the Vault of All Known Knowledge or darkness will descend upon the world. Sounds like daily life at WCL.
