Just finished reading "The Olympian Affair - The Cinder Spires Book Two" by Jim Butcher, released by ACE Books.
Okay, confession time, the only other book I have read by Butcher is "The Aeronaut's Windlass," his first book in his Cinder Spires series when it was released back in 2014. I may pick up the first book in his Dresden Files series. I may not. With the sole exception of Andre Norton, I have not read every book written by my favorite authors and it's unlikely that I ever will since I have hundreds of unread books waiting patiently me for me in my tsundoku - my antilibrary.
Butcher continues his wonderful world of the Cinder Spires which is an intriguing mix of old school world building that incorporates the best of swashbuckling adventure, political intrigue, and steam-punk fantasy with science fiction elements combined as old fashioned sword duels may determine the outcome of shifting political alliances while one spire plots to destroy the world as everyone knows it.
Great Old School Fun!
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
TEN STARS!
