NOVEMBER 19-25, 2014: An overall very, very quiet week in publishing, but with a standout concurrent new release (Mira Grant's Symbiont), two glimmering backlist collections (Buckell and Drake), the return of Sanderson's Legion (for free! read by Oliver Wyman again!), and a few more titles well worth noting (an indie fantasy superstar in the making in Jacob Cooper, anthologies Robot Uprisings and Night Shift, Bernard Cornwell's Grail Quest novels, Costello and Hautala's Star Road, and a huge pile of Akashic
