Son of Scalpel rising from the ashes..?
I'm very glad to see that following the recent and rather ignominious collapse of what looked to be an exceedingly promising review outlet, one half of the Scalpel editorial team - Jonathan McCalmont - has declared that he's contemplating starting over and trying again with a similar concept and framework.
This information should be filed under Good News, and I for one welcome our new online genre fiction reviewing overlords.
And on a similar, review-related note, Paul Raven points anyone interested in the subject in the direction of Paul Kincaid's thoughts on the topic. Well worth a read if you're a reviewer, a reviews editor, or rely on book reviews when contemplating your book purchases.
