Boneshaker
Boneshaker
by Cherie Priest
Staff Pick
It's no secret that I am a fan of steampunk. For years, I have harbored a quiet love of dirigibles and goggles. So it's no surprise that it was love at first sight when I spied the cover of Boneshaker. What I found inside didn't disappoint: a zombie plague, cantankerous airship captains, a mad scientist, a rebellious teen, and a determined, gun-toting mother. Trust me, you won't be disappointed either.

Under the Dome
Under the Dome
by Stephen King
Staff Pick
Well-written, compelling, and intelligent on ethical questions, this epic is worth its daunting page count. Reminiscent of his earlier work, particularly The Stand and It, Under the Dome is Stephen King's best book in years.

When Gravity Fails
When Gravity Fails
by George Alec Effinger
Staff Pick
If you are a fan of cyberpunk and you haven't read When Gravity Falls, buy it now. In the near future, America, Europe, and East Asia have fallen to barbarism, and the Muslim world has become dominant. Personality-modifying cybernetics are commonplace, and Marid Audrian, an unmodified independent operator, must find out who is using them to become a serial killer.

Smoke and Mirrors: Short Fictions and Illusions
Smoke and Mirrors: Short Fictions and Illusions
by Neil Gaiman
Staff Pick
If you've only read The Sandman, you're cheating yourself, but if you haven't read Gaiman at all, it's simply a crime. Smoke and Mirrors is his first — and, I think, best — short story collection, with not a bad story in the lot. The best are the charming grail story "Chivalry," the short and creepy "Babycakes," and the harrowing ode to cats "The Price," but "Only the End of the World Again" and "Snow, Glass, Apples" shine brightly as well.
