I'm really liking the fact that the Long Price Quartet is a 'finished' series.

THE LONG PRICE QUARTET is excellent, but not very like GRRM (apart from the melancholic angle). It's a bit more akin to Guy Gavriel Kay, though more epic than most of Kay's work with a fascinating take on magic.
His new fantasy novel, THE DRAGON'S PATH, is a strong opener to a new series. It's a mixture of traditional ideas and some interesting new angles, like the fact that a major faction is a bank that holds the purses of many of the kingdoms in its grasp.
He also has a new SF novel, LEVIATHAN'S WAKE (under the name James S.A. Corey), which is absolutely superb. Great, old-school space opera fun.

I just purchased A Shadow in Summer for my Nook and it is at the top of my 'to read' shelf! I just finished a book last night that needs to settle a little and then I can't wait to dig in to Daniel Abraham!
Daniel Abraham?
