IF YOU HAVEN'T READ THE GEORGE R.R. MARTIN BOOKS I SENT YOU YET, DO IT.

Also: re-reading Kushiel.

Also I second Nikki's rec of Neil Gaiman.

Also Elizabeth Lowell's Donovan series: Amber Beach, Jade Island, Pearl Cove, and Midnight in Ruby Bayou. Porn and snark, can it be better? oh wait, ADVENTURE. yes it can.
