Moments of Permanence - Because I need to think about things that are differently stressful, sometimes...

I love Kay like burning, and I think he handles female characters fine. And I love how he's taken history to make a fantasy world that seems utterly real and rich but which is recognizably not our own (it's hard than it looks).

On the other hand, I really didn't like his straight fantasy novels. But Saratine Mosaic (Byzantine) books are gorgeous, and so is Al-Rassan and The Last Light of the Sun. I still haven't read Tigana or A Song for Arbonne (I really should--I was saving them to spread out, but it's been a couple years).
