As 2012 is coming to an end, I put together a list of my highly awaited sff/related books of 2013 with a few comments and some (possibly not final) covers. I divided them into a few self-explanatory categories with a more or less chronological listing. I expect there will be surprises, indies and late year books that will deserve their own posts, but for now the following books are on the list, while reviews of earlier books in the series or other books by the respective authors are to be found in the Review Index.




Read - all will be top 25 of 2012
You can find fairly extensive comments about all these four books from the Goodreads link above, some of which I actually posted here too. So far Where Tigers Are at Home is the book to beat for 2013.
