Prompted by the word that L. M. Bujold's latest, The Sharing Knife: Passage, had hit the shelves, I paid a visit to Borders today. My bookbuying was not at all adventurous; I restricted myself to F/SF, to authors I was familiar with, and for the most part to books in series I've been following.

The haul: Bujold, Passage; Jane Lindskold, Wolf Hunting; Eric Flint, 1635: Cannon Law, 1634: The Ram Rebellion, and 1824: The Arkansas War; Lawrence Watt-Evans, The Spriggan Mirror; C. S. Friedman, The Wilding; Jim Butcher, Grave Peril and Academ's Fury; Steven Brust, Brokedown Palace; Harry Turtledove, The Grapple; and Gene Wolfe, Soldier of Sidon.

You know, I haven't even read _1632_ yet, let alone the numerous sequelae & spin-offs. The sheer amount is rather daunting. I've heard some folks are intimidated by the extensive Miles series, but at least those are in very digestible chunks; the Flint books are both numerous & enormous. What with other books, internet, even some real life now & then, I'm not sure whether I'll ever get to them.

As for your review, if & when is fine.
