More Books

[andyhat]

So this week's book haul is a much more modest 18 books. Of course, that's not counting the two issues of Asimov's (the Oct/Nov double and the Dec issues), one issue of Analog, and the second issue of Alchemy that arrived as well.

Notable books this week: Geoff Ryman's new novel Air, The Jon Stewart/Daily Show spoof textbook America, Jay Caselberg's two novels (Wyrmhole and Metal Sky), four new titles from PS Publishing (novellas by Paul Park and Stephen Baxter, and collections by Lucius Shepard and Stephen Gallagher), three collections from Prime (by Hemmingson, Lake, and Files), the newest title in Delirium's Dark Homage series (this one by John Pelan), and the latest Little Book from Borderlands Press, (Thomas F. Monteleone's Little Brown Book of Bizarre Stories).

And now it's time to do laundry and start reading.

The title page has "(Or, Have Not Have)" under the main title, so I would assume so. I hadn't realized that was an earlier story; looks like it was published in 2001, which was one of those years where I wasn't able to keep up with my short fiction reading.

Thanks for the info. "Have Not Have" was one of my favorite stories of the past few years, so I'm definitely looking forward to the novel.

I'm fairly certain I've got the relevant Year's Best. I also don't remember reading that particular story. I'm not sure whether to read the short or the novel first...
