\"\"<\/p>\n

This year on Supernatural Underground<\/a> I\u2019m celebrating the wondrous and wonderful worldbuilding of Fantasy literature with a closer look at some of my favourite worlds.<\/p>\n

On 1 May, I featured Palimpsest<\/em><\/strong> by Catherynne M Valente—the world and the book share the same name. I had forgotten quite how much I loved the world, and also the novel, until I reread Palimpsest<\/em> ahead of doing the post.<\/p>\n

Anyway, to find out why I love it so much, please do go and have a read — I don’t think you’ll be disappointed by clicking through:<\/p>\n
