Also Catherine Fischer's "Dark City". For patient readers I add "Gathering Blue" by Lowry, and Nicholson's "Wind Singer". Another old one I wish someone would reprint is Hoover's "This Time of Darkness", And I am a huge fan of Westcots "Uglies", and Reeves "Fever Crumb" series. Townsends "The Creatures" still reads really well if you can find it. Maybe ebooks will get some of these a new life.
