READ THESE BOOKS.

Oh, hurray, lizbee has written a fabulous review of Philip Reeve's Hungry Cities Chronicles so I can just point you to hers and not feel guilty that I haven't yet written one! Though I should also have remembered that I could point to jamesbow's excellent review, which was written ages ago, as well.

Now what I really must do is get on here and burble about my mad love for Megan Whalen Turner, but I want to re-read The Thief first to see if I like it better the second time. (I already know that the second and third books in the series are, unquestionably, LOVE. I just didn't warm to the first one for some reason.)

Miles (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miles_Vorkosigan), for your reference. Megan Whalen Turner actually mentions Lois McMaster Bujold's writings as an influence in her endnotes to The Thief -- I'm not surprised.
