From deep in the comment thread of the last post, we have the following question:

If you're willing to share, I'm just curious -- how many of the favorites/current reading listed by other folks have you already read?

Well, let's see...

Poison Study, Maria V. Snyder
Definitely Dead, Charlaine Harris
Storm Front, Jim Butcher
entire eight books of the wizard series by Diane Duane
Sorcery and Cecilia, Patricia C. Wrede and Caroline Stevermer
Arabella, Georgette Heyer
Downbelow Station, CJ Cherryh
These Old Shades, Georgette Heyer
The Masqueraders, Georgette Heyer
Niccolo Rising, Dorothy Dunnett
the Brother Caedfael mysteries, Ellis Peters
Uglies and Pretties, Scott Westerfield
Smoke And Ashes, Tanya Huff
the Kencyr books by P.C. Hodgell
The Screwtape Letters, C.S. Lewis
Lord Valentine's Castle, Robert Silverberg
Summers at Castle Auburn, The Shape-Changer's Wife, Wrapt in Crystal, Sharon Shinn
The Eyre Affair, Jasper Fforde
Hellspark, Janet Kagan
Nine Princes in Amber, The Guns of Avalon,Sign of the Unicorn, The Hand of Oberon, The Courts of Chaos, Roger Zelazny
Memory, Lois McMaster Bujold
Space Cadet, Robert A. Heinlein
Farmer in the Sky, Robert A. Heinlein

Skeen's Leap, Jo Clayton

I have tried random Pratchetts -- and, I'm sorry, but I Just Don't Get It.  No sense of humor, me.

Ditto, Gaiman.

And, having read the first Niccolo, after which I was depressed for a month, I have strong doubts that I'll ever seek out the Lymond books, though many people whose taste I respect adore them.

The sequel, The Last Days, is readable, but not nearly so innovative as Peeps.
