 Yeah the first half of Absolution Gap was great, and then the ending was really hosed up. I really liked the beginning prologue/subplot of Quaiche too.

Actually I'd like to hear some peoples thoughts on some of these if anyone's read them :) I'm a ridiculous Reynolds fan.

Galactic North was awesome, especially Glacial, Spy in Europa and Galactic North.

I've read Diamond Dogs & Turquoise Days as well, and while Diamond Dogs was amazing, I really didn't like Turquoise Days. Slow and didn't really go anywhere. Currently reading Zima Blue, but haven't finished it yet...I'll let you know what I think when I do.

Oh and I also loved House of Suns. Which collection has Thousandth Night in it?

e: I just read Everlasting. My God, that was a good short story.
