Literary Frontiers is a series in the blog
which gives us the chance to offer our perspective on both new and
established science fiction and speculative fiction books. The series
will publish around twice a month, or whenever one of us can finish and
post one of our most recent reading projects.
The selection this time is, appropriately for the Halloween, Ira Levin's Rosemary's Baby. Not exactly sci-fi, but can certainly fit into the fantasy/speculative fiction arena, at least with a little wiggling. Horrific urban fantasy? Sure. Okay, so I bent the rules a little because of the season. So sue me.
The review follows after the jump. Just be careful what doors you open: you may not be able to close them again.
Ruminations and imaginings of two gurrls about feminism, Star Trek, Sci Fi, Steampunk, Universal Monsters and other appropriately geeky topics.

Wonder Woman's Origin: Here We Go Again!
by Sara Crow
According to a post on io9 last
week, DC
Comics will be giving Wonder Woman a father in their November issue, and he will be none
other than the head honcho of one of the most notoriously knotted family trees
in mythological history: Zeus.
Dun, dun, duuuuun... More after the break!
