The best of 2011

In no particular order here are my top reads of the last 12 months.

The Third Section by Jasper Kent

Posted by: Redhead on: October 20, 2011

Brimming with betrayals and violence, seductions and patience, this is the series you’ve been waiting for if you prefer your vampire fiction to be more Bram Stoker than sparkly.

Vampire stories make for wonderful metaphors, don’t they?

Vampire Empire: The Greyfriar, by Clay & Susan Griffith

If you liked Twilight, you will love Clay & Susan Griffith’s The Greyfriar

Blindsight, by Peter Watts

Posted by: Redhead on: May 4, 2010

Remember the movie Alien? Now add some H. Beam Piper, some Event Horizon, some of Stanislaw Lem’s Solaris. Populate with freaky characters, voluntary (and involuntary) lobotomies, and a shy vampire. Welcome to Blindsight, Peter Watts’ scarier side of first contact, where aliens are truly alien, and do not want to talk to us, no matter how nice we are.

Nightwatch, by Sergei Lukyanenko

Posted by: Redhead on: April 9, 2010

Lukyananko’s supernaturals are smart, sexy, enjoyable, and just might have your best interests at heart. Even better, no one sparkles, and no one is referred to as a muggle.

some of the books reviewed here were free ARCs supplied by publishers/authors/other groups. Some of the books here I got from the library. the rest I *gasp!* actually paid for. I'll do my best to let you know what's what.
