Having finished Orions' Hounds a couple of days ago i'm now halfway through Sword Of Damocles. From what i've read so far it's shaping up to be the best yet.
I've recently finished The Satanic Verses and Kate Atkinson's comic crime novel Emotionally Weird. I'm about to start Sarah Monette's Corambis, the fourth and final book in her Doctrine of Labyrinths series. The next Trek book I read will be Troublesome Minds once it comes out late next month, unless I can work up an interest in Mere Anarchy before then.
In addition to everything else I'm reading, I've now picked up and started Full Circle. Already 66 pages in and kudos to Ms Bayer, this is shaping up to be a SUPERB book.
Finally got a copy of Full Circle myself. Will be diving into it shortly.
About 120 pages in now. So far so good. Except... on p.119 the unword "irregardless" is used. But I haven't thrown the book across the room yet. Could be the work of the same gremlin who's replaced "had" with "has" a few times.

After finishing the last batch, I'm currently reading Dickens' Hard Times (and a hard read), and re-reading Thomas Pynchon's The Crying of Lot 49 (third time through, but this book just never ceases to amuse).

Just started Full Circle and enjoying it so far.
I decided to start reading Over a Torrent Sea (seeing it as OaTS on here always makes me laugh) on Thursday evening, I'm about a third of the way in and it's okay.
After I've finished it, I'm going to take a wee break from Trek and re-read some Chris Brookmyres (Not the End of the World, One Fine Day in the Middle of the Night and then possibly A Big Boy did it and Ran Away) before I pick up and read Full Circle.

I just started Full Circle. Once I get this done, I will be diving into Vanguard Open Secrets, and after that, Troublesome Minds
Finally finished the Odyssey (Could have done without the description of how Melanthios is murdered 
, though. But that's Homer, I guess. At least it wasn't as gory as the Illiad.)
I have ordered Mere Anarchy but it's not here, yet. I started reading Effi Briest by Theodor Fontane. The blurp on the back said that my favourite author Thomas Mann thought that this was one of the most important works of world literature, so I couldn't resist.

Star Trek-wise, I'm almost finished Singular Destiny - the first non-TNG book I've ever read (and only purchased as a result of the very entertaining and interesting Trek Lit board discussions). Loving it. While waiting for Full Circle, I've just finished ST: Strange New Worlds 1, 2 and 7.
Non-Trek related I'm just about to sink my teeth into Rome & Jurusalem by Martin Goodman. The reviews for this have been amazing.
