Newton's Wake : A Space Opera by Ken MacLeod. I suspect this was a really good book and I'm going to go back and re-read it after I pry it back out of ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
cricketk who also had reason to believe it was a good book. Lots of very cool ideas including a combat archeology team and AI consciousness storing.
The Bloody Red Baron by Kim Newman. A dark alternate history where Van Helsing lost and vampires populate the world. It desperately needs an editor to weed out embarrassing typos but the amusement value of seeing all those famous names fighting WWI is high. Dracula (of course) is helping the Germans, Mata Hari has mesmerising vampiric powers and Edgar Poe has dropped his middle name and been whisked off to write the biography of the Red Baron.
Am going to switch to re-reading old favourites until I'm less tired and stressed.
