I'm currently reading Soldier of the Mist by Gene Wolfe. It's historical fiction with some fantastical elements. A bit like in Mary Renault's books the fantastic elements are so far subjective. The main character is a Roman mercenary who forgets everything every time he sleeps. He writes down everything he does like the character in Memento.

I'm also reading Red Seas Under Red Skies by Scott Lynch. It's good but not as good as the first book. The narrative is considerably slower in pace and the locations are duller too.
