Black Sand written by Lisa Finder and published by Goodfellow Publishing Services. Black Sand is a wonderful fantasy set in the South Pacific. Lisa Finder’s style of writing is ethereal and she weaves in romance, suspense and social issues with dream like quality.
There were a lot of really good books this year.

Wow, great stuff on your list. I just read Fire Watch recently, the award-winning short story that helped spark Blackout and All Clear. Loved it! I’ll definitely be reading both of those this year. Also want to get to more Ian McDonald. I first read him in 2010 and quickly became a fan.
