Books I am looking forward to this calendar year

[kaberett]

Max Gladstone, Last First Snow :D
Seanan McGuire, A Red-Rose Chain (September) (ordered)
Seanan McGuire, Indexing 2 (August)
Ann Leckie, Ancillary Mercy (October?) (first three chapters = AAAAAAAAAH, ordered)
John Scalzi, The End Of All Things (~August IIRC) (pre-ordered!)
Nnedi Okorafor, Akata Witch #2 (Breaking Kola?) (autumn 2016)
Ken Liu, The Grace of Kings (April)

Doesn't look like Dia Reeves has anything planned to come out soon, grump. There is another Hunter Kiss novel (released last year) I get to read for brain-candy, hurrah.

If I try to make this up to Ten Good Things I will be late for counselling so I guess I'd best head off, but I would not object to recs.

Sorcerer to the Crown, by Zen Cho, is coming out this year.

I'd forgotten there was going to be a second Akata Witch book. :DDDDDDDDDDD I want seven of them. I want it to be the next Harry Potter.

I've preordered Ancillary Mercy already.

I haven't read it yet, but Rachel Hartman's Shadow Scale is out already. Sequel to Seraphina, about the autistic dragons.

And Jo Walton's The Just City is out already, and The Philosopher Kings is coming out soon, if you like Plato's Republic with your fantasy. (I pre-ordered the paperback of The Just City, and am telling myself I can finish the Republic before I read it. It's not going well because depression is eating my concentration and I'll be lucky if I pass my accounting subject, let alone manage to finish serious reading at the same time.)
