Okie, it’s still a few days before November ends. But i have free time only now

Peter V. Brett: The Painted Man (aka The Warded Man)
Brilliant fantasy debut. I’d say 8.5/10
Robert Charles Wilson: The Divide
Was the usual RCW Spin style book. Interesting, but the ending felt flat. 6.5/10
Simon R. Green: The Author of the month, i’d say. Read tonnes of his stuff. All of them would be 7-7.5/10
Nightside Series
Something from the Nightside
Agents of Light and Darkness
Nightingale’s Lament
Hex and the City
Paths not Taken
Sharper than a Serpent’s Tooth
Hell to Pay
The Unnatural Inquirer
Deathstalker Series

T.A. Pratt: (YAUFA) Yet Another Urban Fantasy Author. 7/10
Marla Mason Series
Blood Engines
Poison Sleep
Dead Reign
Scott Lynch: Red Seas Under Red Skies (Book 2 of the Gentleman Bastards)
Did not have quite the flavor of the first book, Lies of Locke Lamorra…but still quite an entertaining read 7.5/10
Brent Weeks: Way of The Shadows
Good fantasy debut. Assassin, trainee assassin, court intrigue…all checks in place
8/10
Michael Moorcock: Elric of Melnibone
somehow did not get into the book at all. a weak 4.5/10
Richard Kadrey: Butcher Bird
good writing and a stronger plot than the usual urban fantasy mess. i’d like to read more from this guy. 8/10
