Books Recently Seen
Through the SFWA Circulating Book Plan
July 2009 Edition

Compiled by Michael H. Payne

     The new SFWA Site continues to come together, and I'll be doing a little grunt work over there, helping with the "Featured Books" section of the thing. These pages are scheduled to move over there, too, at some point, but I guess we'll all find out about that together.

     With the changes to the Nebula rules, only books published in each calendar year will be eligible. So I'll only keep the current year's pages up here from now on.

     These are, therefore, the books that I've looked at so far this month through the SFWA Circulating Book Plan. If I find I have something to say about a book, I'll put a paragraph up about it; otherwise, I'll just note its existence. I'm always open to other people's takes on books, too: just drop me a line, and I'll ruthlessly edit your comments before posting them. A more complete rendering of my Policies and Disclaimers can be found by clicking the Policies and Disclaimers link earlier in this sentence. And the following little chart thing will take you to the earlier pages from this year.

[Jan 09]  [Feb 09]  [Mar 09]  [Apr 09]  [May 09]  [Jun 09]

     Oh, and the links for each book will take you to that book's page on amazon.com, in case you're wondering. Any books you buy from Amazon after taking one of these links will send a few pennies to the SFWA Emergency Medical Fund, too.

Day, S.J.: Eve of Destruction (Tor, Jun09)

Summers, Jordan: Scarlet (Tor, Jun09)

Czerneda, Julie E.: Rift in the Sky (DAW, Jul09)

Landon, Kristin: The Dark Reaches (Ace, Jul09)

Sarath, Patrice: Red Gold Bridge (Ace, Jul09)


If you're reading this on a Sunday afternoon between 4 and 6 Pacific Time, let me invite you to listen to my radio program, The Darkling Eclectica. I play music and read stories at KUCI in Irvine, CA; the page there should have instructions telling you how to make the sounds come out of your very own computer if you have the proper equipment.

You can also check out my web comics: Terebinth, updated five times a fortnight; and Daily Grind, running Monday through Friday till I can't stand it anymore as part of the Daily Grind Competition.

Or you can always visit these other fine parts of the SFWA Web Site.
