Hi GA.... Umm, that may be someone else I'm not familiar with the name of that site.

Sorry I didn't get back to you before. I've been away from GR for awhile.

Welcome back to the land 'o reading, and congratulations on your new Fire! I hope you enjoy! :)

I did not think to check Smashwords. Thanks! :)

I got the Curran POV, but can only read it via the Kindle app on my phone for some reason. It will not work if I try to send it to my Kindle via Calibre.

I did get Magic Gifts for free, a while ago. I knew I would read the series eventually, I just didn't know when.

As for the others...I'll have to let my wallet decide.

I saw your post about it. Sounds interesting! I had to remind myself that my TBR is too long as it is, though. Lol!

And thanks. I'm really enjoying both series and spoiled myself by buying all four of The Edge.
I'll be reading the Curran POV about the soup next, then move on to Fate's Edge.

I really wished all of the Kate Daniels short stories were in a single collection too! I don't know that I can afford to get them all. Some are sold by themselves (for $2.99) on Amazon, some are in anthologies, and there's a 2-parter called An Ill-Advised Rescue that I can't seem to find at all.
I hate when it's so complicated! I just want to read the darn stories already!

A great combination of magic and mystery. The second book is also coming, though the release date got pushed back first from ..."

The Rook was pretty good, wasn't it! :) I see a reread in my future, right before book 2 is finally released.

Holy crap! An entire month has gone by. I'm stuck in limbo with On the Edge because I haven't really made any time for reading. I think I've managed three chapters since my last "Currently Reading" update.

What a Fantastic February you had! Great job! :)

:) I'm still reading On the Edge; but The Saga of Rex was a nice, 10 minute, intermission.
The artwork is truly gorgeous.
