How do you want to read this one? I'd prefer a more leisurely read of this one without questions. I propose three or four stopping points to discuss what we've read and think. Thoughts?
I forgot about this one. Will start today. I had a busy weekend. It was hubby's birthday and we had company. I really want to read this one.
I just started. Seems good so far. You have a missing Scion and two detectives assigned to the case. A world which once had fey who tainted their bloodlines by pairing with humans, but some humans possess certain powers/gifts. I'm intrigued.
I read a lot of it, but I can't recall if I finished. I may have been interupted by a BOM read. I need to check if I read most of it if not all. I'll comment. End of the month with the newsletter usually keeps me super busy and makes me forgetful.

Whether in a book or TV series, I can't recall. I just recall someone dying by the hand of another to get their magic. I'll have to think of the book. Possibly Street Magic? I'm not sure. I'm going to go through it again because I devoured it sort of quick and figure I missed a lot the first go round. Are you still planning on reading it?
Yes, I will definitely read it - hopefully this month. In fact, maybe I can make it work for Bingo this week. Off to check!



This topic is open for discussion of Bronze Gods by A.A. Aguirre. Be prepared for SPOILERS.
Book one of an exciting new cross-genre series.
Across the water lay the land of Hy Breasil, inhabited by the immortal Ferishers. Though they were few, they were divided, and when the mortal conquerors came they did not stand together. They had magic but the invaders were many, and after a bitter war, peace was only made through marriage. And thus the ten great houses grew, and the city of Dorstaad rose, and the Ferisher bloodlines grew thin. But there were some who still wielded the ancient magic…
Janus Mikani and Celeste Ritsuko work all hours in the Criminal Investigation Division, keeping the citizens of Dorstaad safe. He’s a charming rogue with an uncanny sixth sense; she’s all logic—and the first female inspector. Between his instincts and her brains, they collar more criminals than any other partnership in the CID.
Then they’re assigned a potentially volatile case where one misstep could end their careers. At first, the search for the daughter of one of the great houses seems straightforward, but when the girl is found murdered—her body charred to cinders by an intricate and deadly device—Mikani and Ritsuko will be challenged as never before. A ruthless killer is stalking the gaslit streets, weaving blood and magic in a lethal ritual that could mean the end of everything they hold dear…
