   NOVELS

   I. Cahokia Jazz by Francis Spufford

   A fucking *banger*: it's a taut, unguessable whuddunit, painted in ultrablack noir, set in an alternate Jazz Age in a world where indigenous people never ceded most the west to the USA. It's got gorgeously described jazz music, a richly realized modern indigenous society, and a spectacular romance. It's *amazing*.
