5) League of Extraordinary Gentlemen - Century, 1910: The latest in the series, a little weaker mostly because i am not as familiar with Raffles and Karnacki as I am with Mina and Allan, this was a lot more fun when I realized that everything in the background was the Threepenny Opera playing out. Plus, the origin of the new captain Nemo was well played out within that.

6) The Return of the Black Widowers: The last collection of Asimov's armchair puzzle solvers, this contains both 10 "best of" stories, plus all the ones that had not yet been compiled at Asimov's death, plus two other people writing Widower homages. I have always quite enjoyed these pleasant little puzzles, and am glad that someone pulled the last of them together into one place.
