naathTwo with the same cover art (Whut is up with that?!)
Elantris (Sanderson)
I like this, it's his first novel and I think not as good as Way of Kings although certainly very good. I do like the way he picks a small number of view points to work from, I especially like that one of them is a woman. I shall certainly be reading Mistborn just as soon as I wear away some of this to-read pile I'm wading through :-)
Lifelode (Walton)
This one is slightly strange. And all in the present tense, which makes it slightly strange to read; and in a messy order rather than linear, which is a part of the story. I liked it lots and lots.
And one other
Among Others (Walton)
Ah, a book with lots and lots of SF references; most of which I don't get. Apparently I'm too young. One review seemed to think the main character is impossible objective about her life or some such tosh; but I think it makes a lot of sense and feels very real. Apart from the bits that don't, of course :-p
