I recently had a book called 'Mordew' by Alex Pheby, very strange little fantasy book, quite enjoyed it.
Now working through Salman Rushdie's 'Victory City' with my book club. I'm sure I don't love it, but I think I like it.

The Wheel of Time: The Fires of Heaven (Book 5)
I'm loving the series so far, not for the faint of heart! (For reference, there's 15 books, with a total of 4.4 million words) |

Just finished Full Dark House by Christopher Fowler...the first Bryant and May mystery novel.
Very well written witty and quirky mystery set in London. Now reading What This Comedian Said Will Shock You by Bill Maher. Funny and clever comments on topics (US culture) that interest Maher.... a bit smug/arrogant at times but I find myself agreeing more than not.

Recently had 'Venomous Lumpsucker' by Ned Beaumont, it is a pessimistic near-future look at climate change and the extinction crisis that has cutting humour and main characters that you generally wouldn't want to be friends with. I really liked it.
Also been working my way through the sequel to Mordew, 'Malarkoi' - I'm about 75% through it, and I have considered not finishing it a couple times through this journey. It is considerably weaker than its predecessor. I think at this point I'm likely to finish it, but I have a fear it's not going to come to anything resembling a point. And my book club is reading 'Six Gun Snow White', which seems to largely be an exploration of how poor women and indigenous people have been treated through the lens of a western version of the classic fairy tale.

I couldn't put the 14th and final volume of the Wheel of Time down, I read it all in one sitting, all 385k words (1149 Pages).
That was a trip, it'll take the top spot for favorite series. That's for sure. Now, on to reading "Dune"! |
