A

Alexander, Alma
The Secrets of Jin-Shei
   Harper Collins, 2004
   Exquisite people,
   The view shifts too fast between.
   Not enough of some.

D

Dozois, Gardner (Ed.)
The Year's Best Science Fiction, 6th Annual
   St. Martin's Press, 1989
   I crav'd those peaches;
   Willis made me cry. Shepherd
   Nail'd the last line cold.

G

Gould, Steven
Jumper
   Starscape, 1992
   Ooooh! Very nifty!
   I expected less darkness,
   But it held me through.

K

Kay, Guy Gavriel
The Last Light of the Sun
   Roc, 2004
   Like holiday feasts,
   There's too much on this table.
   Not full, but content.

M

McKillip, Patricia
Alphabet of Thorns
   Ace, 2004
   Characters and plot
   On the verge of synthesis;
   I am left waiting.
McKillip, Patricia
In The Forests of Serre
   Ace, 2003
   Beautiful, but with
   Too much running back and forth.
   It tired me out.

P

Powers, Tim
Declare
   Avon, 2000
   A train, building speed --
   heavy, inexorable.
   No stops 'til the end.

S

Spencer, Wen
Wolf Who Rules
   Baen, 2006
   Scattered but fun, it 
   was disappointingly light
   on teh hot elf sex. 
Stross, Charles
Atrocity Archives
   Golden Gryphon, 2004
   Demons and IT
   just don't scare me. I support
   Tenured faculty.

T

Tepper, Sheri S.
The Fresco
   EOS, 2000
   Tepper succumbs to
   A heavy-handed preaching;
   It mars a good tale.

W

Wilson, Robert Charles
Spin
   Tor, 2005
   Doom and wonder both
   Encompass the earth; and yet
   Friendship will endure.

Z

Zielinksi, Stephan
Bad Magic
   Tor, 2004
   Dialogue heavy,
   Sometimes action was unclear.
   Still, a great story.
