Fantasy. Fiction. HTML: A Tor.com original, From the Editorial Page of the Falchester Weekly Review shares the thoughts of the renowned dragon naturalist Lady Trent�??whose memoirs continue to be chronciled in Marie Brennan's acclaimed Victorian Age science fantasy series�??about the scientific community. After risking the neck of her loved ones and herself during her perilous sea voyage aboard The Basilisk, and the discoveries made at Keonga, Isabella, Lady Trent, returns to Scirland with the aim of publishing her research. And yet, given the level of secret knowledge she now posseses, she is reduced to waiting to reveal her new academic discovery until royal decrees can be lifted and a fraught political situation avoided. In her idle frustration, Isabella vents her spleen upon the shoddy research published by lesser men with swollen heads in local journals. Enjoy the following collection of letters, found in a trunk of mislaid scholarly documents left behind when she removed to Linshire for the season.

I know I read this in 2016 some time, but didn't mark it down... shame, i know. Very fun epistolary. (

Wonderful, fun, and very quick read. Editorial letter pages are the Facebook comment threads of the 19th century. A great addition to the series. And available for free online here: https://www.tor.com/2016/04/05/from-the-editorial-page-of-the-falchester-weekly-... (

Oooh, I knew exactly which points of the pompous Mr. Talbot's letters would piss off Isabella (they pissed me off as well), and to no one's surprise, she ripped him a new asshole both in letter form and in the incredibly satisfying conclusion. (

Very short story, shouldn't count towards my book total.

Academics snarking and throwing shade at each other is delightful. The 'punchline' had me literally laughing out loud in bed. Lady Trent is an excellent role model for women and academics alike. (

Cute little story, purely epistolary - even the end, when Lady Trent took action, is described in yet another letter. Some examples of a) scams involving dragons and b) what Lady Trent had to put up with (I don't think he actually calls her "little lady", but the flavor is there). Amusing. But light enough, and unrelated to the series enough, that I didn't remember that I had read it before in Maps to Nowhere. (

Dear Sirs—
I was fascinated by Mr. Benjamin Talbot’s brief notice, published in the 28 Seminis issue of your magazine, detailing his acquisition of a preserved specimen from a heretofore undocumented draconic species.
