Book Description
Coming of age in the 1950's, Edward Colson is an introverted senior at an all-male boarding school in Norfolk, VA. His academic brilliance, mild temperance and suspected attraction for other boys have made him the target of Paul Maxwell and the Broadbent Brothers, a group of bullies, who for the past five years have made it their personal mission to torment and ostracize him. As the entire student body and faculty of Norfolk Academy prepares for the school's annual Halloween carnival, Edward's tormentors find him alone and more vulnerable than he's ever been before. But the tables are soon turned when big brother, Anthony Colson, a hulking all-American athlete and officer in training at the U.S. Naval Academy, pays an unexpected visit to his old alma mater, catching his little brother's bullies in the act

Book Description
As a child, Uccello is discovered to have a truly magnificent singing voice. It is decided that he will become a professional singer but at what cost? As the story unfolds, the reader uncovers the heights of a renowned 18th century singer juxtaposed to the seedy, treacherous existence of castrati. The amorous adventure of a young singer begins in Italy and takes him to the court of King George of England. Along the way, Uccello makes love to a bevy of courtly beauties who take him to their bed. In the end, though, he makes enemies of wealthy and powerful men who seek to bring the young singer to his fall.

Book Description
A fantasy masterpiece from a five-time Hugo Award winner! A war-dragon of Babel crashes in the idyllic fields of a post-industrialized Faerie and, dragging himself into the nearest village, declares himself king and makes young Will his lieutenant. Nightly, he crawls inside the young fey's brain to get a measure of what his subjects think. Forced out of his village, Will travels with female centaur soldiers, witnesses the violent clash of giants, and acquires a surrogate daughter, Esme, who has no knowledge of the past and may be immortal. Evacuated to the Tower of Babel -- infinitely high, infinitely vulgar, very much like New York City -- Will meets the confidence trickster Nat Whilk. Inside the Dread Tower, Will becomes a hero to the homeless living in the tunnels under the city, rises as an underling to a politician, and meets his one true love–a high-elven woman he dare not aspire to. You've heard of hard SF: This is hard fantasy from a master of the form.
