I finished listening to A Land So Wide, which ended up being a middling tale of a fairly dumb girl and vampiric beasts. I also started Steel Gods by Richard Swan which is off to a great start. I've been gaming instead of reading this week so haven't made much progress. I'm off Monday and... Continue Reading →
