If you've got a shorter attention span, Gaiman's recently released _Smoke
& Mirrors_ collection of short stories is overall pretty good. If you
like the film _Fight Club_, you might like Chuck Palahniuk's (the author
of the novel the film _Fight Club_ was based on_) new novel _CHOKE_.

I can't really recommend the new James Ellroy _The Cold Six Thousand_ as
up to his usual standard of noir, I feel as though he's losing his grasp
a bit.

Me, I'm rereading Daniel Keys Moran's sf novel _The Last Dancer_ around
Electrix (studio audio effect units) manuals and IPsec config HOWTOs.
