Dungeon Samurai Volume 1: Kamikaze by Kit Sun Cheah

[JenniferAustin]

I am currently reading (listening to the audiobook) The Art of Starving by Sam J. Miller, and it is brilliant. I can't put it down, and I don't want it to end!

[N.E.C.C.]

Theft of Swords by Michael J. Sullivan, LOVED IT!!

[Ami the Teef Thief]

The last book I read was Neuromancer by William Gibson. I thought it was a fantastic read. However, I did get lost a few times simply because I wasn't acclimated to the prose of Gibson. Once I got used to that I sped through the book and thoroughly enjoyed it.

I just finished reading To Be Taught, If Fortunate and I frankly loved it. I only wish it had been longer. For the story that was being told, novella length was correct...but I wanted more of both the stories and the characters. I know it is one of the nominations for the BoTM for October, and no matter what I recommend it! :)

[Kirsty, Jedi Master]

In the last couple of days I finished Children of Blood and Bone (Fantasy) and Silence of the Girls (Ancient Historical themed Fiction). Both were fantastic. I recommend them both :)

Makes me want to re-read it. I've only read it the once over a decade ago, but it was great!

[Cupcakes & Machetes, Hybrid Creature]

I finished Scourged, the last book in the Iron Druid Chronicles. Looks like it got a good deal of hate from fans but I thoroughly enjoyed myself.

Neuromancer (Sprawl, #1) by William Gibson"

I think Gibson started losing his cool when he stopped writing about ninjas with detachable thumbs.

I've been so leary of reading this because of all the hate that it got

I really think it was because it didn't end the way people wanted it to.

Just finished The Republic of Thieves by Scott Lynch

I finished Jade War by Fonda Lee. It's the second book from the Green Bone Saga and I really loved it!!

[Mary]

Come, Seeling Night by Daniel Humphreys

[Mike]

Mogworld by Yahtzee Croshaw

It was fine enough but suffers for being not as good as Orconomics (which spoofed similar topics) and Yahtzee's subsequent book Will Save the Galaxy for Food.

Bad Dreams and Broken Hearts: The Case Files of Erik Rugar by Misha Burnett

[Mary]

Leaves from the Garden of Eden: One Hundred Classic Jewish Tales by Howard Schwartz

[rin]

Enjoyed Cosmoknights by Hannah Templer. It's a sci-fi world with battlesuits in some kind of feudally-influenced society with mech-jousting! A graphic novel with appealing characters and gorgeous colours.

Fforde tends to be pretty damn good. ;)

His Thursday Next series was brilliant IMHO.

[Freya, Dragon Rider]

Ahh is it? I always feel a bit uncertain when authors play with characters from other series', which is what Thursday Next does, right?

Sorta. She works fur "Juris Fiction" the book police, that prevent books from getting changed. It's more like literary satire. I thought they were brilliant, personally.
