Rankineer Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 Mechanique: A Tale of the Circus Tresaulti. Steampunk circus? Oh, hell yes! I'm only a few chapters in so not much to add personally at the moment, but the io9 review sums things up rather nicely: Genevieve Valentine's Mechanique, a steampunk/post-apocalyptic/magical-realist/paranormal adventure, is one of those rare books that will transform your understanding of genre. It's a genuinely literary book that uses the elements of genre to tell the truth about people. Fittingly for a book about acrobats and tumblers, this book both soars and confounds your expectations.

Denaratuck Posted September 23, 2011 Share Posted September 23, 2011 The Corner by David Simon and Ed Burns A sad and compelling story about a year in inner city Baltimore focusing on the lives of a handful of people. Sounds something like the show The Wire. If so, it sounds like a book I'd be interested in reading. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Mayus Posted September 23, 2011 Share Posted September 23, 2011 Sounds something like the show The Wire. If so, it sounds like a book I'd be interested in reading. David Simon and Ed Burns wrote the Wire as well. Also the Corner was made into a miniseries for HBO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IzzyJohnno Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 I am currently reading this: This is because I have watched the TV series and loved it, so I decided I'd start reading the book that came before it. Its been a good read so far 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rowdi Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 I'm currently reading this: It's the twelfth book in the series and was almost the last because the author Robert Jordan died. Luckily his wife was able to find an author to take his place and not only finish book twelve, but the rest of the series. Brandon Sanderson picks up where Jordan left off almost seamlessly. Sanderson, author of the Mistborn trilogy and Elantris, is a very good storyteller. If you're into fantasy, I recommend the series and Sanderson's previous titles.

AlteredFormula Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 I've just finished 11.22.63, its Kings best book in years in my opinion, and I think its due to the fact that he first started to piece it together in the 70's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
