beniowa Posted December 28, 2007 Share Posted December 28, 2007 Navigator, Stephen Baxter Kitty and the Midnight Hour, Carrie Vaughn The Secret History of Moscow, Ekaterina Sedia Navigator wasn't supposed to be out until next week but Barnes & Noble had it on the shelves already. I bought the Kitty book since I've been hearing things about the book and author. Rothfuss talked about Sedia's book on his blog and when I saw it I decided to buy it.

Werthead Posted December 28, 2007 Share Posted December 28, 2007 Spent most of the day trying to track down The Winter King by Bernard Cornwell. Gave up on it and picked up Hunter's Run by GRRM/Abraham/Dozois and Winterbirth by Brian Ruckely instead (in hardcover and trade paperback respectively, both at half price in Galway's biggest bookshop).

IheartTesla Posted December 29, 2007 Share Posted December 29, 2007 I visited a second-hand bookstore recently and purchased three books. Darwin's Dangerous Idea by Daniel Dennett. I think this book is about Darwinism. It might be a little dated Chaos by James Gleick. This is about the "new" science of chaos, I believe. The Last Place on Earth by Roland Huntford. The story of Amundsen and Scott's discovery/exploration of the South Pole. Part of the books hook is deconstruction of the myth of Scott as a noble hero.

Amras Posted December 30, 2007 Share Posted December 30, 2007 I think one of my new year resolutions will be to show a bit more restraint this year when it comes to buying books. I'll probably fail when late February, early March comes a-knocking with all the new titles that gets released... So I put a final order in before '08 to keep the shivers at bay: The Devil You Know by Mike Carey No Dominion by Charlie Huston Banquet of the Damned by Adam Neville Pirate Freedom by Gene Wolfe If "No Dominion" is as good as "Already Dead", I'm pretty much toast when it comes to keeping that resolution. Ah well... 'tis only money Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
