Man, where have I been? Seriously. Check out the cover Yasmine Galenorn has for her new Indigo Court series which starts out with Night Myst. I had no clue this was even coming and it’s going to be here June 29, 2010.
Kim Harrison has unveiled the official cover for the next Rachel Morgan/Hollows novel. It appears they made at least one change for Black Magic Sanction that wasn’t there before and that’s mainly hiding the face more.
Orbit has posted their Spring/Summer 2010 release list. If you go look, make sure you have your TBR handy because you’re going to be adding to it. Looks like there is going to be a lot of good stuff coming out next year.
Here’s some interesting news. SciFi Wire is reporting that a few scientists have discovered, what they believe to be, the lost city of Atlantis. Instead of being in the Mediterranean, however it’s located somewhere in the Caribbean and they are not telling anyone where it is. They say they want to confirm their findings first, which makes sense, but the fact that they will not reveal who they are is leading to a lot of speculation.
If you’ve been watching Twitter over the last couple of days, then you know why I’m posting this. If you need a refresher on the WTFckery that has occurred, Babbling About Books has a great article that can catch you up.

Scifi Wire has posted their Top 11 Movies that changed Sci-Fi, as well as 9 that didn’t. We’re talking some classics here, so its worth a look.
For those who are not plugged into Twitter, Melissa Marr announced the title to the fifth Fae novel. We’ll be able to look forward to Darkest Mercy, which I’m told still follows the opposite attraction of the previous Aisling novels, but I don’t see it. Either way, we now have a title.
