What are you reading in June 2014?

I just finished the new audio version of The Master of Whitestorm by Janny Wurts, narrated by Simon Prebble. I had read the book in 2011 and loved it but the audio version put me over the moon! It's fantastic and I upped my star rating from 4 to 5 stars. I've always loved Simon Prebble, but I've never heard him like he is narrating this book. If anyone enjoys audiobooks I highly recommend it!

I've been doing reading and playing. :)
I went to post and realized it was June today!
;)
I've mostly been keeping up with various group reads, but I'll add that to my "want to read " list.



Warhost of Vastmark
The Ships of Merior
And also the next books in the 2 series im reading at the moment, the sorcerers ring series and the godling chronicles

Finished Dawn of Swords. Here's my review. I'm going to finish off Dune and then it's on to Promise of Blood.


Well Dune definitely earns all that praise it gets. Really great book. Here's my review.
I started Promise of Blood, interesting beginning so far.

"Corban" series. Love it, and trying hard to finish the last two books in the series. This is technically a "history fiction" book, but it has some very strong fantasy/magic ties.



I just started Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West.
I also expect to be finished with The Emperor's Blades pretty soon too.

With an outrageous schedule this month one book should do it.
Just finished Promise of Blood! Here's my review
Moving on to Prince of Fools which I'll be reading with the girlfriend, and American Craftsmen, which I'll read on the side.

The Prose Edda, Half of a Yellow Sun, To Kill a Mockingbird and Granta 121 (the Brazilian edition).

Next up is The Ultimate Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.

Ditched American Craftsmen. Couldn't stand reading further. Here's my review
I'm reading Prince of Fools slowly with my girlfriend, and The Garden of Stones on the side.

Just finished Prince of Fools! A very, very different book from any of the Broken Empire books. Here's my review
I'm on to The Garden of Stones, seems like stock fantasy but with some crazy creative worldbuilding so far.

I am also starting a book called Plus One

Just finished The Garden of Stones, that book is amazing! I can't believe a debut that awesome just completely sailed under the radar like that. Here's my review

I just finished up The Obsidian Heart. Here's my review. I can't believe these books aren't more well known in SFF circles; The Garden of Stones kicked The Red Knight out of the top spot for my favorite 2013 debuts, and The Obsidian Heart only ratchets up everything that was excellent in The Garden of Stones.
Just finished The Pillars of Sand, great ending to one of the most underrated fantasy series released last year. Here's my review.
Now it's on to Hollow World! Looking forward to what sort of tale I can expect from Michael J. Sullivan post-Riyria.

Now it's on to Hollow World! Look..."
You'll love it :) This month I've just finished reading Red Country, before starting Prince of Fools I'm going to read two fantasy anthologies, Triumph Over Tragedy: an Anthology for the Victims of Hurricane Sandy and Neverland's Library, many great authors there!


I showed up late to the party. Someday I will catch up!

Then I'll do a quick refresh/skim of The Way of Kings, so I can quickly start Words of Radiance.
