#17 Wild Justice by Kelley Armstrong

The conclusion to this thriller series about a female killer for hire has her solving the attack on herself as a child and murder of her cousin. It turns out that things are not quite how she remembers them from the attack and things turn interesting when hired killers start coming after her. A good solid ending to the book and I'm not left wondering at the end about now what.

#18 Lockstep by Karl Schroeder

A young boy wakes up from cold sleep to find that fourteen thousand years have passed and somehow his family is the most important family in the universe. Lockstep works with worlds sleeping away the years while robots gather resources and then they wake for a while to trade and enjoy life and then go back to their hibernation mode. But not everyone one is happy in this universe and with the sudden appearance of Toby, the missing eldest child of the family everyone wants something from him. A good coming of age story but the ending seemed a bit too pat for my personal taste but others may like it. This is geared a bit more for the YA crowd but it certainly doesn't talk down to the reader.
