Personally I like it. It was different than the normal fantasy I read. it is set in the Ottoman Empire which I LOVED and involves djinn which aren't used very often. I have the second and third books which I plan on reading.

I am excited to start reading. Just wondering if there is a format you want us to use to post a completed book.

Richard, that is a nice list. Added some to my TBR

Richard: I would love to see what you have on your list.

I made a shelf of my own M's recommended shelf

Reading all the recommendations:

me - happily holding my amazon gift card leftover from my birthday.

husband - "are you buying more books"

me - hisses like a rabid raccoon and takes the laptop else where to add to book horde.

So I was looking over the task list and "Read a book recommended by someone on your team" is listed 3 times.

I have been burrowed deep in my sci-fi and fantasy horde for a while. Could you lovely people give me some recommendations please.
