How do you like Monsters of Templeton? I thought it was great. But of course I like historical fiction.
So far not bad. She definitely has a writing style of her own.
If you like historical fiction, you should check out Caleb Carr's stuff. Except for the Sherlock Holmes book. I didn't care for it, but then again I'm not much into reading Holmes. :shrug:
The Alienist and The Angel of Darkness are both set in late 1800's NYC.
Also Neal Stephenson's Cryptonomicon has a bit of history in it. Another good read.
Oh yeah, the three volumes of Stephenson's Baroque Cycle (Quicksilver, The Confusion, and The System of the World) are set in the same time period as Carr's 2 Alienist novels, IIRC. I've got them but haven't read them yet.
