Fiction
Ink Mage by Victor Gischler. Gischler writes a fantasy novel. Something about a magical tattoo on a young woman's back. The plot does not matter because Gischler never writes junk. I'd have this at home - or already read - except my reading time is spoken for with work related titles.
Joe Ledger: Special Ops by Jonathan Maberry. Maberry's character Joe Ledger works for a super-secretive federal agency. Ledger gets into all sorts of fisticuffs and shoot-em-ups with terrorists, zombies, mutant animals, aliens, etc. Fun stuff. This is a short story collection.
Ballad of Mila by Matteo Strukul. Italian dude writes fast paced shoot-em-up with vengefull woman who was raised as an assassin and now out to get those her raped her and murdered her father.
City of Heretics by Heath Lowrance. I vaguely recall hearing a joke about the name Heath and Heath bars. I heard the joke years ago and cannot remember what it was.

Cold Harbor Runner
Fiction
Shovel Ready by Adam Sternbergh. My order notes says, :New York Magazine review." I'm not what that means. Maybe it was the New York Times book review. Looks like a dystopian thing set in New York City with "the wealthy spend[ing] their days tapped into virtual reality; the rest have to fend for themselves in the streets." Oh, maybe it's just a contemporary setting.
