The January Dancer (sp?), by Michael Flynn.

I liked this, although I'd early put down another Flynn novel that I didn't like well enough to finish.

Iron Sunrise, by Charles Stross.

I liked this one too. I'm going back and reading some of Stross's work that I missed when it first came out.

SPQR XII — Oracle of the Dead, by John Maddox Roberts.

I've enjoyed this series, and this entry was good.

The Water Thief, by Ben Pastor.

I enjoyed this, though it was sometimes annoying.

In the Stormy Red Sky, by David Drake, copyright 2009; Baen Books/Baen Publishing Enterprise; May 2009; ISBN-13: 978-1-4165-9159-7.

This is the seventh in The RCN Series featuring Daniel Leary and Adele Mundy.

The Shadow of Reichenbach Falls, by John R. King, copyright 2008; Forge/Tom Doherty Associates, LLC.; ISBN-13: 978-0-7653-1801-5.

It was interesting to see Sherlock Holmes and Thomas Carnacki mixed, even if it was uneasily mixed.

The Revolution Business, by Charles Stross, copyright 2009; Tor/Tom Doherty Associates, LLC; April 2009; ISBN-13: 987-0-7653-1672-1.

In the fifth in Stross's Merchant Princes series, things go from bad to worse.

Skin Trade, by Laurell K. Hamilton, copyright 2009; Berkley/Penguin Group (USA) Inc., Penguin Books Ltd.; June 2009; ISBN-13: 978-0-425-22772-5.

This is the seventeenth volume in the Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter. Again, I'm more interested in the paranormal metaphysics and the monster killing than the sex.
