This Space for Rent

Hugo fodder

A succession of bad days

Shockingly good. Hard SF, if you consider magic as SF. Hard magic otherwise. Written from the POV of a sorcerer who came into magic in a great hurry and was tossed into an experimental apprenticing program, with an appropriate amount of complete and utter bafflement as the training progresses (so when this sorcerer’s cohort starts doing terrifyingly powerful magic it’s both unexpected and obvious.) There’s not much in the way of action!, but what there is clicks along and left me shuddering with horror about the time when the problem was resolved.

Definitely worth a Hugo nom. And, happily, I can nominate it.
