Burning Chrome, by William Gibson, copyright 1986; preface copyright 1986 by Bruce Sterling; Ace Books/The Berkley Publishing House; October 1987; ISBN 0-441-08934-9.

The last of Gibson's Sprawl trilogy. Now if I could only find my copy of Neuromancer.

The Forest of Peldanin, by Barrington J. Bayley; copyright 1985; DAW Books, first printing, August 1985; DAW Collectors' Book No. 640; ISBN 0-88677-068-8.

I've owned this for years, but I think this may be the first time I've read it.

The Soul of the Robot, by Barrington J. Baley, copyright 1974; Condor, March 1978; published by arrangment with Doubleday & Company, Inc; ISBN 0-895160161-1.

I ran across this book as a child, in a local library. It was shelved in the children's section, which, considering some of the content, was probably a mistake. In any case, it was one of the formative science fiction novels of my childhood.

Recently I found out that there was a sequel to this, published many years afterward, and bought a copy.

The Folk of the Air, by Peter S. Beagle, copyright 1977, 1986; Del Rey/Ballantine Books; January 1988; ISBN 0-345-34699-8.

An enjoyable read.

Endless Blue, by Wen Spencer, copyright 2007; A Baen Books Original/Baen Publishing Enterprises; June 2009; ISBN: 978-1-4391-3271-5.

Starts very much in medias res. Interesting. Mentions two other Baen books by Wen Spencer:

• Tinker
• Wolf Who Rules

Have to look them up.
