The other two series of his that I've read are both very well-written. I haven't read all of Shadowmarch as I was reading it chapter by chapter and then Life got in the way and now I barely read anything :( Otherland is dramatically different, I would never guess that it was the same author even, different but great :)

"...different but great :)." That's encouraging! Even if I really like something I like to see what else an author can do.

"...Life got in the way and now I barely read anything :(" This happened to me once, for about a decade, a combination of kids, job and health issues. Hope you get back to it soon!

Williams' is hit-or-miss for me. I loved the Memory, Sorrow, Thorn trilogy, but couldn't get into Shadowmarch for some reason. Otherland was also good, though like the other commenter mentioned, not in the same genre.

I'll have to take a look at both - thanks!
