Many thanks for everyone's suggestions and ideas. Obviously, I can only read a few of these novels in the next two weeks, but the rest will make a nice book list. Plus I should read some works by fellow panelists. One (Diana Rowland) is writing a "White Trash Zombie" series that should be fun. The mind boggles, then runs for cover.

Making good progress at the moment with the next novel. I've just developed a shabby, would-be assassins' guild -- basically thugs in pillow case masks dyed black with delusions of grandeur. What to do if the gods refuse to assign you a grandmaster and your patron saint is a healer? Ah, fun.
