Finally got around to reading Gene Wolfe the past couple months (Book of The New Sun, Fifth Head of Cerberus, The Island of Doctor Death...). Absolutely amazing, some of my most enjoyable reading in years. Going to start on the Long Sun and Short Sun series soon.
Will also sneak in a horror/fantasy recommendation here: Ghost Story by Peter Straub (1979). Read it this Spring and it's the best horror novel I've ever read.
