Was up in the Cascade mountains at Leavenworth, WA, about 120 miles ne of Seattle last week and the colors as you got above about 1000 feet were absolutely breathtaking. Bright yellow birch and other trees surrounded by scarlet bushes. Down around Seattle level, the colors are almost uniformly muddy. I'm going to try to plan a visit next fall about this time to really enjoy it.

Geo. RR Martin; Bujold; Guy Gavriel Kay should all be on your short list.

I also like The Domesday Book (retitled The Doomsday Book, because most did not know that Domesday Book referred to the first English census)by Connie Willis. What a way to get a Phd in History at Oxford.

Grass by Sherrie Tepper.

Dragonbones and Dragonblood (2 books) by Patricia Briggs

Dave Duncan's series starting with The Magic Casement and if you like him, read on. The King's Blades is a good series as is The King's Daggers.

Tim Powers is awesome. Start with Declare.

That is just the tip of the iceberg.
