The Land of Make-Believe

Welcome to the U.S.A., where we're slightly more rational than Turkey

Dzur

Dzur

I ripped through Steven Brust's new book, Dzur, in one sitting last week.  I absolutely love his Vlad Taltos series, and this is the newest, which I had pre-ordered from Amazon.  While I enjoyed it immensely, I think he cheated a bit on calling this book "Dzur" since that House isn't involved at all in the story, but I'll let it slide.  Now, the question is, how long do I have to wait for the next book?

 

I kind of stalled out reading the Viscount of Adrilanhka series, because I hadn't ever finished Five Hundred Years After, which turned out to be pretty related, so I finished that, then forgot to pick the Viscount books back up.  Well, I'm back into them now, just need to make sure I get them finished before Variable Star arrives.
