Hello, a new month and a new load of books for us to read.

I’ve just started The Bone Maker which I’m reading with a few others.

So I finished Bone Maker the same day. I couldn’t put it down.

Joseph | 1651 comments On to Corum - The Oak and the Ram: The Eternal Champion, the middle book in Michael Moorcock's second Corum trilogy. These are probably my favorite Moorcock books and I'm still impressed by the way he can fit an entire fantasy trilogy into less than 500 pages.

I remember reading all of the Eternal Champion books years ago. Corum was always my favourite of the incarnations.

This sounds good so will go on my TBR list.

Janette | 211 comments Have just started The Forever Sea which according the blurb on the back is Eco punk. No idea what that is but the story is promising so far.

Mine is the only nomination so far.


message 12: by Joseph (new)

Joseph | 1651 comments Had a busy night last night: Finished Corum - The Sword and the Stallion: The Eternal Champion, read both The Empress of Salt and Fortune and When the Tiger Came Down the Mountain by Nghi Vo (wonderful, wonderful, fairly short novellas), and started Xiccarph by Clark Ashton Smith.

I had a 4-day weekend and did nothing but read. It was lovely.

Elise (ghostgurl) | 1028 comments I finished Wonder Woman: Warbringer. I had a fun time with it, despite some flaws.

And I've started The Fires of Vengeance.


message 16: by Joseph (new)

Joseph | 1651 comments Finished Xiccarph and started The Serpent, the first book in Jane Gaskell's Atlan series, which I might have last read in high school?


message 17: by Janette (new)

Janette | 211 comments Have finished The Forever Sea which was good although leaves you hanging for the next instalment.

Have now moved on to The Midnight Lie

I've read LIFEL1K3 trilogy this week by Jay Kristoff.


message 23: by Elise (new)

Elise (ghostgurl) | 1028 comments I finished A Princess of Mars. Didn't like it much. :/

Now I felt like reading an animal fantasy, so reading The Builders.

I like the mole in that.


message 25: by Elise (new)

Elise (ghostgurl) | 1028 comments Finished The Sword of Summer. Off to a strong start and also plenty of fun. Will be reading the next soon.


message 26: by Joseph (new)

Joseph | 1651 comments Have been continuing with the Atlan series and am now on the final book, Some Summer Lands.


message 27: by Elise (new)

Elise (ghostgurl) | 1028 comments Finished The Builders. I really liked it, but wanted more. It needed more development. Could have been a series.

Starting Fugitive Telemetry now.


message 28: by Elise (new)

Elise (ghostgurl) | 1028 comments My wrap up for April.
