Nine years worth of books? No, but a few worth mentioning.

 Myke Coyle's "Sixteenth Watch" works as well as it does because of characters-  strong, solid characters who breathe and feel and cry and laugh-  and then blow stuff apart in the space around the moon.   For those who normally don't exactly adore millitary or scifi or millitary sci-fi,  this is worth a try.  Recommended at 33 Richmans, for sure. 

Nathan Lowell's "The Wizard's Butler" should not be as pleasant a read as it is.  Some people found it a bit dull,  but most found it wonderful to read.   Sure, there is some magic, but no renevants or undead,   no outworld threats or ancient evil unleashed.    The plot line never resolves one of the issues affecting the main characters.  But as one reviewer noted,  Lowell is writing with such warmth and style that you don't realize you are interested in the story even though you just read a page about getting internet installed in a mansion,  and you want to know what happens next.  No combat,  no really evil people (just greedy) and yet a  stunningly smooth read.   31 our of 40 Richmans-  Recommended indeed.
