Pashazade / Effendi / Felaheen
Books 07/17/2003 |Something else for my reading list, courtesy of Thousand Faced Moon, who I found by wandering through TypePad’s list of recently updated TypePad blogs:
I’m impatiently waiting for Simon & Schuster to get off their butts and publish Jon Courtenay Grimwood’s Felaheen in the States. You’d think a science fiction series set in the Near East would be pretty darn topical these days, but the second book in the sequence, Effendi was only published here by Simon & Schuster in February. Bastards. Fortunately Ziesing gives me my fix when I need it.

Glad the review was useful! If you’re interested in more of a ‘secret history’ type of book, you might also check out Edward Whittemore’s Jerusalem Quartet, republished by Old Earth Books:

I haven’t read all of them, but the ones I have I’ve enjoyed as bawdy, funny, tragic novels dealing with love, faith and the human condition.
