Jim Butcher's Dresden Files book is on my list.
Does anyone know anything about Trudi Canavan? I've eyed some of her books lately at the used book store but didn't buy.

I might also pick up Sandman Slim by Richard Kadrey at some point, because it's on my wishlist and looks interesting.

But I will likely pick up the John Barnes for my dad.


Did this list somehow miss Kay's Under Heaven? I thought that was an April title too?
Also, I thought C.J. Cherryh had another coming up in her Foreigner series... I had a mental 'check this in April' tag - could be wrong about the release date.
My advance copy says May 2010, but on Amazon it's listed for April 27... so I'm not sure. I definitely recommend it - thought it was his best novel since The Lions of Al-Rassan.

Sometimes I am really pleased to be a Canadian

Yes I have just read four of her books, her latest, Magicians Apprentice just beat out The Last Stormlord by Glenda Larke (which I think is a fantastic book) for the Aurealis awards in Oz. I enjoyed her books but there are 3 I cannot get hold of at the moment.

Thanks for the info. I may just pick them up next time I'm at the used book store (if they are still there).
