I just posted about The Dagger and the Coin, but I realized I should do a find on my books directory to see what else I’ve read lately:

• Cory Doctorow’s Walkaway was awesome, probably my favorite thing he’s written in a decade or so.
• I may have already posted about Jo Walton’s Among Others, a sort of magical magical realist novel, but just in case I haven’t: it’s a wonderful read, especially for anyone who grew up on science fiction.
• Jeff VanderMeer’s Southern Reach Trilogy was spectacular, the best experimental fantastic fiction I’ve read in years. I had trouble clicking with his new one, Borne, though. I’ll certainly give it another try at some point.
• I’ve just started Yoon Ha Lee’s Ninefox Gambit; so far it’s a dense, imaginative tilt-a-whirl of a book.
