The House That Silence Built

I have been taking for-freaking-ever to read The Drawing of the Dark. It's Tim Powers' prototypical secret history novel, written before even The Anubis Gates. I like it a lot, but I keep finding these other things to do that leave me reading it on the bus ride home, or on the odd log 'n capture day, like today. Perhaps I shall finish it.

I do not believe this one will be going back on Paperbackswap.com when I finish. I already kind of regret trading away Expiration Date and Earthquake Weather, even though I had tired of reading the first and think the second is a ham-fistedly composed crossover of the former with Last Call.
