Which leads me to this poll. What book do you most want to see published? Based on either topic, author, or whatever, but what is the book you look for whenever you browse in a store?

George RR Martin has three books called "The Song of Ice and Fire" series. I can't wait for the fourth. I look for new Dave Duncan books too, and to a lesser extent, more space opera crap from Lois McMaster Bujold. And any good new bridge books.
In response to yesterday's poll about the most amazing thing you've ever seen, I think mine is when I played in a national bridge event and my partner came down with a 29 point hand, something like
Ax
AKQx
AKx
AKQ
We mis-bid it and wound up in six spades, but ended up winning the event anyways.
