In case anyone is wondering how I finally got on the bandwagon for Anne Bishop’s The Others series, it’s all because of an assignment from Novelist. I was updating their “Author-Read-Alikes” essay for Anne Bishop, and decided it was time to read Written In Red, if only to figure out what might qualify as an “if you liked this you’ll like that” recommendation. I got totally hooked, and I’m trying to resist the temptation to devour them all at once – both because that’s so often disappointing, and because I have other stuff I’m scheduled to read. But I think resistance is going to prove to be futile.
In addition to all the titles listed below, I also picked up Some of the Best from Tor.com 2015 as a free download from, obviously, Tor.com. If you like science fiction and/or fantasy short stories, this anthology is always a winner. And did I mention FREE?

Version Control has a very freaky cover.
It does, doesn’t it? The description was a bit weird as well. Kind of on that borderline between SF and literary. Well, we’ll see. Or it’ll bounce.
I like Lindsay Mckenna, just signed up for her newsletter, you have alot of good reads, I hope you enjoy them!
