51. Kitty Pryde: Shadow & Flame by Akira Yoshida and Paul Smith.
52. Best Short Novels 2006, Edited by Jonathan Strahan.
53. All Star Superman Volumes One and Two by Grant Morrison, Frank Quitely and Jamie Grant.
54. Fearless Jones by Walter Mosley.
55. Two or Three Things I Know for Sure by Dorothy Allison.
56. Who Fears Death by Nnedi Okorafor.
57. Rocannon's World by Ursula K. Le Guin. After I read Planet of Exile last year I realized how woefully under-read I am in Le Guin; I've read a handful of her short fiction, and the original Earthsea trilogy, but I've missed a lot. So now that I've run out of Mythago Wood books, Le Guin is my next project, starting with the Hainish cycle. This is not just the first novel in that cycle, but her first published novel altogether; she's not at her full power here, but this is a nicely done adventure novel with a real grasp on the romantic tragedies of space travel and change. Plus, it has flying big cats.
