Well, everybody and their mothers is recommending N.K. Jemisin's The Hundred Thousand Kingdoms which just came out. I'm still kinda feeling left out because I can't read it (yes, I'm jealous of people who can!), but I'm pretty sure that you should if you can, and if you like high fantasy.

Via Willow: first three chapters here in N.K.'s blog.

ETA: I have read the three chapters and then the Amazon's reviews and I think I spoiled myself, but Oh God. I want this book. I will get it for sure.

I'm on the last chapter. It's good.

This page makes it look like there's an open e-book release. I have no idea about ebooks, though.

I saw it in a bookshop on Friday (which surprised me, as I always assume in Australia we get books much later), and bought it! I am VERY EXCITED.

Whoa. Dude. DUDE. Now I want to read this.

Gimme your address, if you can? I'll order two copies and send one to you.

... Mari, ILU. But sending here is expensive and I will feel guilty. (Seriously, the shipping costs more than the books, god damn them.) Because. I just want to vent. (Or you know, wait for the e-books so I can buy them because those are waaay less expensive).

ILU.

Ahahaha, right. Pfft. No, I mean it, I will feel guilty because technically I could afford it, but I just don't want to spend my mother's money. XD

But buy it! And tell me what you think and I will consider what to do. XDD ;;
