Bookkeeping 2015
Jun. 3rd, 2015 05:59 pm1. Dark Places - Gillian Flynn
2. Red Delicious - Kathleen Tierney/Caitlin R. Kiernan
3. The English Girl - Daniel Silva
4. Critical Space - Greg Rucka
5. Foreigner - C.J. Cherryh (reread)
6. Invader - C.J. Cherryh
And with Invader, I fell in love with the series.
7. Dark Dance - Tanith Lee (reread)
My very first Tanith Lee was Darkness, I, which I found on the new releases shelf at the Austin library back in the day. It was an odd place to come into the Scarabae. I didn't track down the first two for many years. I was very frustrated with Dark Dance the first time through, specifically with Rachaela and what I took as her passivity at the time. This time around, however, I find myself much more in sympathy with her, sometimes painfully so. The prose is exquisite, of course, though the pacing is sometimes a bit...statelier...than one might wish.
The first draft of Dreams contained a Scarabae homage, which I finally cut to streamline things. It's absence makes me sad, now, and I hope to find it a good home in another book.
8. Inheritor - C.J. Cherryh
Yup. Still quite smitten.
