Just finished It Takes a Thief to Catch a Sunrise - fun, light read for my Self-Published bingo square.

Also still working on The Price of Spring.

Just started on the first volume of a pretty obscure series, The Chronicles of Hawklan by Roger Taylor. It's not bad - so far. I only own the first three of five parts, and we'll see if it's worth to hunt down the missing two.

I'm in San Augustus with An Alchemy of Masques and Mirrors by Curtis Craddock. Enjoying it so far!

Hello fantasyfans, I have been on a long journey, with false trails and dead ends into YA territory, and nearly losing everything in the swamp of Steven Erikson. An old friend showed me the way back, and we started a Team Read of LotR. Back on track, I enjoyed Kameron Hurley (particularly Stars are Legion, the bug books are maybe too gory), re-reading Earthsea as a run-up to grinding through the Hainish cycle from my childhood, issues of Uncanny Magazine, and finally stopped putting off reading The Heart of What Was Lost, which was ... wonderful. I am so happy knowing Osten Ard series 2 awaits. Right now I am riding with the Dhai in Hurley's Mirror Empire. This may sound crazy but when I read Hurley I think of my teenage love of Harry Harrison - really new ideas, really terse prose - that's often all I need. So I have a reading future kind of mapped out with LeGuin and Williams, but I feel a stirring from the George Martin direction. I don't watch the tv show, and I feel like it's time to re-read the last two books... winter is coming

Just left the UK, having finished O'Malley's The Rook.

Now I'm wandering about the mid-U.S. with a troupe of vaudeville magicians (literally, magicians), in Bennett's The Troupe.

I've just escaped from man-eating hogs in the sewers under Blastburn (in alternative England) and moved to the park of Midnight Court because Midnight is a Place.

>7 DeusXMachina: Ooh, I have that. Maybe I'll re-read it.

>9 cremorn: Ah, Osten Ard. I just acquired The Heart of What Was Lost as part of my Thingaversary haul.

Just got back from a vacation that didn't have as much time for reading as usual so I only got three "trips" in. Spent some time on an alt!British ship chasing pirates in Burning Bright, then visited The Edge of Worlds with the raksura, and finally spent some more time in real!Britain with a sci-fi-time-travel twist via The Jane Austen Project.

Currently hanging out with the Twelve Kings in Sharakhai.

Just finished Le Guin's "Western Shore" trilogy with Powers. All very good, but I liked the last the best. And as a bonus, a happy ending!

Finished reading the Shadowmarch four volume series today. I'd rate it behind Memory Sorrow and Thorn, but more modern (less Tolkienesque) and pretty good.
