This month we are featuring 42 books. There are more than twice as many new sff and related releases this month in traditional publishing not to speak of the countless indies from Amazon and Smashwords but we are limiting ourselves to books that will be reviewed here or are similar with such. For the full schedule of October 2011 titles known to us, you can consult the Upcoming Releases page.
The release dates are US unless marked otherwise, though for books released in the UK and US in the same month but on different dates we use the earliest date without comment and they are first edition unless noted differently. The dates are on a best known basis so they are not guaranteed; same about the edition information. Since information sometimes is out of date even in the Amazon links we use for listings, books get delayed or sometimes even released earlier, we would truly appreciate if you would send us an email about any listing with incorrect information.
Sometimes a cover image is not available at the time of the post and also sometimes covers change unexpectedly so while we generally use the Amazon one when available and cross check with Google Images, the ultimate bookstore cover may be different.

I wish that Lackey's "Changes" didn't come out until later in the month, since I won't have enough money for it until then. Oh well, at least I'll still be able to get a hardcover copy, so that the copies I own in that trilogy will all be the same.
Also looking forward to Lindqvist's "Harbour", and REALLY looking forward to Jemisin's "The Kingdom of Gods." Lots of new books to read!
I am super stoked about Aloha from hell and the David Weber one! preorderd oh yeah baby
Pabkins @ Mission to Read
Should the Aaronovitch book be listed on here? I'm certainly can't wait to read it, but your own Amazon link has it set for release in early 2012.
That's a good point about the Aaronovich book; well we'll list again next March!
Thank you, thats very interesting information. I need to share with my friends.
