golf clap
truepenny's Mélusine:Elizabeth Bear's Hammered, Scardown [review website spellchecker issue corrected--eb], and Worldwired (Bantam Spectra) were released in January and July respectively with the third due in November, but consider all three as a single 1000-page mass market paperback debut novel.
They also liked Touched by Venom (recently seen sweeping the blogosphere), Elantris, and several other debuts.
And ETA: The Chains that You Refuse is available for pre-order on Amazon.
Pretty good week, what?
ETA AGAIN. You know, when I posted this, there were some little addenda on it about supporting one's local bookstore or ordering through Powell's or another non-chain bookseller, in preference to Amazon. *sigh*
And there was also a cute little comment to the effect of being pleased I was winning the name-recognition wars with the flower arrangement book and the Santa mysteries, though I'm positive they're perfectly nice Santa mysteries and/or flower arrangements, and if you like that sort of thing there they are.
*sigh*
Livejournal is censoring me when I try to be amusing. But who could blame it?
