The Last Policeman is a fine novel that combines a fairly straightforward police procedural (but with the interesting twist that the detective is a novice) with a better-than-average SF premise that the world is six months or so away from being hit by a Torino Scale 9 or 10 asteroid. (less)

What starts as a piss-take on "Star Trek"s disposable away-team characters gets, first, properly twisted (the characters put the pieces together) and then goes meta, or recursive, or something. Funny and breezily written, with some appropriately sentimental genre stuff. This would be a perfect transcontinental airplane read. (less)

Highly recommended. Ronson returns to the form of "Them," and "The Men Who Stare At Goats," in this collection of humorous journalistic essays. His last book, "The Psychopath Test," was a little one-note and more judgmental, while this collection travels broadly and shows Ronson in a variety of moods. Ronson's best book remains "Them," but I enjoyed every essay in "Lost at Sea." An easy-to-read book with bite-sized essays perfect for the treadmill/exercycle. (less)

Definitely a step up from "A Feast for Crows" (my review: "What a slog...") in that it is primarily told from the viewpoint of major characters, but the plot is still disturbingly bogged down: after five books in a seven-book series, the pieces ought to be staged for the climax, but it's very difficult to believe that's the case. My only thought is that a bold stroke would be to start the next book 5 years later, with the important viewpoint characters having walked the paths they're currently on and near the final crisis. It took the author 5 books to get us through Fall, there's no way that he can satisfactorily get through Winter and end with the first signs of Spring unless he changes something about his strategy.

Perhaps the most successful "modern gods and magic" book I've read (although actually I experienced it as an audiobook). This is the quality that I *thought* "American Gods" was going to achieve (when in fact I thought that book was quite over-rated). Miéville does an exceptional job establishing the relative power of the various players and, although the climax involves universe-altering forces, there's the strong sense that the author got to that point in a fair way. There's a good deal of absurdity (that Star Trek is worshipped leads to some key capabilities) but in general the author plays it straight, with the protagonists trying to forestall the apocalypse, and appropriately dreadful antagonists menacing them. The narrator of the audiobook, John Lee, does a great job with a text that's filled with neologisms, parentheticals, and interrupted dialog. (less)
