I ended up reading
The Bat first, thoughts in the book club
thread, and I finished
Good Omens;
The Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch yesterday. It took a while and I am glad it is over; it wasn't bad just not great. Neil Gaiman is pretty hit or miss for me.
I have also read several short stories in the mean time to pad my count for the year.
Last Son of Tomorrow by Greg van Eekhout a Tor.com short story (recommended in this thread);
Tomorrow is Waiting by Holli Mintzer a short story I nominated for the December book club;
Mayfly by Heather Lindsley; and
Zen by Jerome Bixby. The last two of which were also nominated for December's book club, although none of the three received full nominations.
I am currently reading a horror/zombie novella,
Hive by Griffin Hayes, that I got for free in November. Edit: It was ok, with an interesting take on zombie like things, but not interesting enough for me to keep going.
Edit: Next up:
Manna:
Two Visions of Humanity's Future by Marshall Brain. Nominated by WillAdams for the December 2014 book club.
