Though I have a prized Neal Asher book waiting in the wings I decided to read Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince as a change of pace from my sci-fi books. As Pandora's Star was such an epic novel I felt like toning it down a little before jumping into Asher's Polity Agent. Not that a Potter episode is a walk in the park but I expect Polity Agent to be an epic story in it's own right much as has been the novels of the storyline preceding it.
I've also started the June 2008 issue of Asimov's. The last issue had some very satisfying stories in it it. So far the first two stories in this issue are OK, just don't measure up as well. More stories left to read in this issue so there's hope for those.
