Reactor

New York Comic Con is a few scant days away (here’s some tips on how to do it best), and this year several Tor Books authors will be on many of the fantastic panels. From discussions about zombies, to ruminations about demonic hotspots, to an analysis of the uber-popularity of epic fantasy; this years panels have it all.
