The new novel in this (http://www.amazon.co.uk/Secrets-Fire-Sea-Stephen-Hunt/dp/0007289634/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1276540823&sr=8-1) sequence of steampunk/magic/not quite our world fantasy has been released (for a couple of months tbh). I've started reading it and it's quite promising. Conforms nicely to the same style of writing as the previous three, although the last entry Rise of the Iron Moon was weak. These books are worth reading, pulp fantasy with lots of cool ideas. It's not going to win any literary prizes but it's good fun.
