I just finished Brute Orbits by George Zebrowski. This was a a weird one. The basic premise is that in the not to distant future, we put our criminals aboard hollowed out asteroids and send them out for predetermined lengths of times. The biggest problem i had with this books was it's lack of focus. It jumped around a lot and never really delved into the characters that much. It felt like he was too interested in the idea not in the people. NExt up Worlds of Honor 5.
Just finished The Overlook by Michael Connelly, which is a bit of a quickie...and now I'm digging into The Near East: 10,000 Years of History by Isaac Asimov. That's my leisure read; Galileo's Finger by David Atkins is my 'serious' read.
Are you skipping Demons of Air and Darkness?
Rereading The Monkey's Raincoat in an omnibus of the first three Elvis Cole novels - I'll go on straight through Stalking The Angel and Lullaby Town, since I started reading Robert Crais with LA Requiem, and so need to fill in some of those earlier ones.
Finished my re-read of TNG: Before Dishonor last night, and also started Greater Than the Sum. Then I'll continue my TNG re-reading with the Destiny trilogy and then, finally, Losing the Peace.
Once I've finished, I'll finally read the next installment of TNG, Paths of Disharmony. Hopefully, by then, more new Trek will have been published and I can continue on to novels like Indistinguishable From Magic, DTI: Watching the Clock, and VOY: Children of the Storm.

Taking a break from Vanguard to read Over a Torrent Sea, the cover of which used to distract me when Christopher used it as his display picture.
I finished Paths of Disharmony. I didn't enjoy it as much as Rough Beasts of Empire. Just didn't really care for the Andorian storyline. *shrugs*
Taking a break from Trek now and reading I Am Number Four by Pittacus Lore. It looks good so far.

I'm probably finishing up Zero Sum Game tonight, then I'm going to finish up the Wrath: Klingon story in Seven Deadly Sins, "The Unhappy Ones" and after that I'll read the last three stories in 7DS. For those who don't know those three stories are Lust: Mirror Universe: "Freedom Angst" by Britta Dennison, Gluttony: Borg: "Revenant" by Marc D. Giller, and Sloth: Pakleds: "Work is Hard" by Greg Cox.
Reading Destiny part 1 now, will work my way through Destiny and A Singular Destiny, and after that some non-Trek I think, maybe something classic. My GF has a bookcase full of English and American liturature thanks to her studying English Language and Culture as her Major at university. There's always something to read over here. 
Great book. Tragic story, but great book. One of his best in a while.
Currently working my way through Paths of Disharmony and am enjoying it so far.
After that, there's Heat Wave (Castle) and a CSI book by Greg Cox
