I recently talked to someone I know on Google+ about _Gu_ and he picked it up and read it. He totally gets it, as this blog post shows: It’s Gu-tastic!.
And another Plusser, in a non-public post on G+ itself, described it as odd, interesting, intriguing and “worth your time”. Again, that’s what I was going for, so it’s good to see that I’ve apparently achieved it.
Mike Reeves-McMillan lives in Auckland, New Zealand, the setting of his Auckland Allies contemporary urban fantasy series; and also in his head, where the weather is more reliable, and there are a lot more wizards. He also writes the Gryphon Clerks series (steampunk/magepunk), the Hand of the Trickster series (sword-and-sorcery heist capers), and short stories which have appeared in venues such as Compelling Science Fiction and Cosmic Roots and Eldritch Shores.
