Anathem has a few illustrations, but more importantly, it has a glossary that will need to be referenced often.
Ah, that is a good point.
P-C, no. Not that I recall (for REAMDE)
Ooh, well, maybe that would be better.
Mal: Does she understand that? River: She understands. She doesn't comprehend.

Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
If it's annotated properly, using a glossary in ebooks is perfectly simple.
I wish there was a secondary market where I could *give* ebooks away. I'm happy to do without it, I just feel there should be a way I can legally transfer my drm!

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
God. I need to finish Reamde.

Bad me -- I read the last Parasol Protectorate weeks ago!
When others are finished, we can geeble!
And yep, P-C, there's a tie-in. Little, but there. I will try to read the rest of the stories tonight, if I have time.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Excellent! Now if only Lynda Barry would get a MacArthur.

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix
So I've read the second Montmaray book, FitzOsbornes in Exile, and I've decided that it's also going to appeal to anyone who likes the recent revivial of Upstairs Downstairs or The King's Speech, since it's about the intersection of international politics and the London Society in the run-up to WWII. I enjoyed it a great deal and I can't wait for the 3rd one to come out...

Because books.
My copy of the first book came yesterday, but I'm reading three other things first. It looks great, though.
