Mount TBR – July

15 July 2015


I never did a Mount TBR post last month, but that’s because I went on holiday to Canada1 with a little day trip to Skagway, Alaska2 so there may be more additions than usual on this one.

  • Nagata, Linda – The red: first light blame Renay
  • Leicht, Stina – Cold Iron ; Renay’s fault again
  • Hambly, Barbara – Dragonsbane ; rec’d by Aidan Moher on Tor.com, but also because 1) dragons, and 2) I’ve already read a book by Hambly & really enjoyed it.
  • Smythe, James – Way down dark rec’d by Curiosity killed the bookworm
  • Gotlieb, Phyllis – A judgement of dragons rec’d by Martha Wells on Tor.com – article about books about “exploring and Communicating with Alien Cultures”
  • Hawkins, Scott – The library at Mount Char rec’d by Kameron Hurley (among others). This I have on order from the library
  • Mason, Rhonda – The empress game ; Tor.com – Liz Bourke
  • Fujii, Taiyo – Gene Mapper ; Barnes & Noble – Take a Trip Around Planet Earth with 9 Translated Science Fiction Novels
  • Holmqvist, Ninni – The Unit ; Barnes & Noble – Take a Trip Around Planet Earth with 9 Translated Science Fiction Novels
  • Lem, Stanislaw – Solaris ; Barnes & Noble – Take a Trip Around Planet Earth with 9 Translated Science Fiction Novel. But also I remember being intrigued by the film when it came out and the whole idea of everybody creating the people they know through interactions and memory and interpretation.
  • Liu, Cixin – Three Body Problem ; Barnes & Noble – Take a Trip Around Planet Earth with 9 Translated Science Fiction Novels
  • de Rojas, Agustin – A legend of the futureBarnes & Noble – Take a Trip Around Planet Earth with 9 Translated Science Fiction Novels
  • Strugatsky, Arkady & Boris Roadside Picnic ; Barnes & Noble – Take a Trip Around Planet Earth with 9 Translated Science Fiction Novels
  • Yoss – A planet for rent ; Barnes & Noble – Take a Trip Around Planet Earth with 9 Translated Science Fiction Novels
  • Zamyatin, Yevgeny – We ; Barnes & Noble – Take a Trip Around Planet Earth with 9 Translated Science Fiction Novels
  • Bear, Elizabeth – Karen Memory ; Renay and Read this – westerns
  • Priest, Cherie – Boneshaker Read this – westerns but also because I really enjoyed her Lizzie Borden book. Plus steampunk-edness.

In conclusion I have added far too many books, especially when you consider that from now on every Kate Elliott book3 is a must read.


  1. it was awesome, you should totes go 

  2. the mother described it as “Knock without the religion” which only really makes sense to Irish people, but there you go 

  3. past, present, future
