I am delighted. _War for the Oaks_ is a minor classic I have loved since it was released. I told Emma at a con I had to love a book that began with a band at a club playing a Richard Thompson tune, and we digressed into an hour long discussion of obscure bands we loved. I
think I made it clear I loved the book, too.
(Emma is musician as well as writer, and formely part of a band called Cats Laughing that included Steven Brust on drums.)
And _Dogtown_ has been a hard to find item for years, and is equally worth the read.
These are just wonderful. Sign up at Tor.com and grab them. If you like urban fantasy, you'll love them. If you don't like urban fantasy, they may just change your mind.
