Does anyone have any favourite recent novels written in omni POV? I'd like to study them to see how it's done. THanks.

I hope recent means the last ten years.

Oh, that novel is so beautiful and horrible (in a good way).

Now, I could be totally wrong w/ this, but I think His Dark Materials Trilogy by Philip Pulman is omni, ne? Well, it's a great read nonetheless ^_^

Thanks for the suggestions! I will check them out.
I guess by recent I'm thinking about the last 20 years.

I've been wondering--is it possible to do a cozy mystery in omni? Or would you have to tap into the villain's thoughts by default?
