Started A Wizard of Earthsea, so far, its slow going.

Before that it was The City of Brass by S.A. Chakraborty. A interesting magic/wizard/fantasy story that uses middle eastern imagery/history/locale rather than the typical euro centric.

Both are so good.

S.A.C. is a really good writer. Fast paced but still very unique topic and style.

The Watchmaker of Filigree Street - I am a sucker for this type of book. I am not sure of the category, but something like magical historic fiction. I'm enjoying it so far.

You might enjoy The Devourers by Indra Das. It’s a somewhat gory horror about a queer Indian werewolf. Very open to interpretation. Good stuff.

I've been meaning to pick up The Adventures of Amina al-Sirafi, but I've been slowly working through James Clavell's Asian Saga. Maybe when I finish Gai-Jin, I'll read it as a palate cleanser. Clavell's good, but there just so much going on.
