Back with the plan....
Apr. 16th, 2008 09:41 pm....to read at least one work of fiction per month.
Well, I read three in January, none in February or March.
last week, I finally picked up Jacqueline Carey's duology, The Sundering.
In the last few days, I finally started reading Banewreaker, the first book.
Now, I know that these aren't the Kushiel books. I wasn't expecting them to be anything like that. but having adored six books by the woman so far, I expected that I would at least like them.
I'm about twenty pages in and....eh. Not terrible so far, but not particularly engaging. Kinda reminds me of when I read Trudy Cavanan's Priestess Of The White- I could put the book down for days and not really care too much about when I got back to it, and I don't really care enough to read the other two books in the trilogy. Really kinda sad, it's not a particularly common thing that a book that I buy turns out like that.
Iron Angel comes out on the 29th (sequel to Scar Night by Allen Campbell, one of the books I read back in January.) Ooh, and I just found that he wrote a prequel to Scar Night- Lye Street, was released in Janury, will have to look into getting that, I'd love to know the back story that's only briefly spoken of in Scar Night. And Kushiel's Mercy is out on June 12th. Kristen Britain is working on an apparently-yet-untitled fourth Green Rider book and it seems that she has intentions for more than four books in the series since she talks on her web site about a new contract with her publisher allowing for the series to continue.
