Recently I came across a link to the Tor Spring/Summer catalog on asoiaf.westeros.org and was very excited to see the sequel to A Companion to Wolves by Elizabeth Bear and Sarah Monette was included.  The Tempering of Men will be released in hardcover in August 2011 and I cannot wait since I really liked the first book – and Bear and Monette are two of my favorite authors.

Since my husband is a huge fan of Vernor Vinge, I also took note that A Fire Upon the Deep is being re-released in trade paperback in preparation for the sequel.  According to the catalog, it is called The Children of the Sky and is coming out in October 2011.

2011 is looking like a great year for books!  What books are you looking forward to in 2011?
