Top highlights for me included Jane Carver of Waar by Nathan Long, which is a riff on the John Carter books only starring a biker chick/Airborne Ranger. Joe Golem and the Drowning City is the latest Mike Mignola and Christopher Golden collaboration, which seems to be a 1920's alternative history/steampunk story. Look gorgeous no matter what it is. A. Lee Martinez's latest Emperor Mollusk versus the Sinister Brain should be good for quite a few laughs and is related to his recent guest post here.
Given I just finished Caitlain R. Kiernan's newest novel The Drowning Girl (loved it), I'm eager to get at her new short story collection Confessions of a Five-Chambered Heart coming from Sub Press shortly. Also, I'm on the fence about A Game of Groans, which is the Song of Ice and Fire parody I mentioned some months back. I could just wait for the inevitable SNL sketches.
I'm interested in a lot of the others seen above as well, but I just don't know when I'll get the time. I still have to catch up on Stina Leicht's Fey and Fallen series, which has received nearly all rave reviews to date. No rest for the bookish.
