    Good. Moving further away from the science fiction aspect of his early works, but retaining that disquieting sense of social dissociation.

    Hillerman has been writing these mysteries for over 35 years. I must enjoy them, if I'm up at 2:19 reading them.

  • Night Shift, by Lilith Saintcrow, copyright 2008; Orbit/Hachette Book Group USA; First Edition: July 2008, 2nd printing; ISBN-10: 0-316-00178-3, ISBN-13: 978—0-316-00178-6.

    The first in a new series by Saintcrow, in a slightly different world, so far as I can tell. I enjoyed it.

Recent Reading: Talbot
  • The Adventures of Luther Arkwright, by Bryan Talbot, copyright 1990, 1991, 1997, 2007; introduction copyright 1997 Michael Moorcock; all other material, unless otherwise specified, copyright 2007 Dark Horse Comics Inc; Dark Horse Books/Dark Horse Comics, Inc., Second Edition: 2007, 1st printing; ISBN: 978-1=59307-725-9.

    I can see why Moorcock likes this. I found it very dense in places, but worth it.
