51. Devil In a Blue Dress by Walter Mosley.
52. A Red Death by Walter Mosley.
53. White Butterfly by Walter Mosley.
54. Flora's Dare: How a Girl of Spirit Gambles All to Expand Her Vocabulary, Confront a Bouncing Boy Terror, and Try to Save Califa From a Shaky Doom by Ysabeau Wilce.
55. The Riddle-Master of Hed by Patricia McKillip.
56. James J. Hill and the Opening of the Northwest by Albro Martin.
57. King's Blood Four (Book One of The True Game) by Sheri S. Tepper. Well, holy crap. This was a first novel? I'm impressed. The ending is perhaps a little tidy, but it's the first book in a trilogy, and there is so much else to like. I've been bouncing off a lot of fantasy lately, but this has a lot to recommend it: the language, the (bizarre) world-building, the control. Happily I have the next two books on hand, so onward.
