This week I'm working through China Meiville's Bas Lag trilogy. Just started the Third Book. First time reading him, I'm in love.
I recently read Manhunt by Gretchen Felker-Martin, which was really good.
Oh, also read Octavia Butler's Kindred. Awesome stuff.
Second on Kindred
The Scar was so fun. Just neat water monsters left and right
Yeah, it was great. Gave me some cool dreams.
Her new book, Cuckoo also slaps
Word, I'll add it to my list.
Hell yeah
He's currently collaborating with Keanu reeves on a novel about an 80 thousand year old warrior.
I'm happy he writing again, but it's a weird collaboration
It's out, saw it in a bookstore window the other day
Are you sure it isn't one of the spin offs? He released one of those recently.
Looking at the wiki the third book doors of stone isn't out
Oh it was "book of elsewhere"
Yeah, friend is currently reading it, they me told me about Bas Lag and I was intrigued.
Wait, it's out?
Came out the 23rd.
Is it? I'm looking online and I'm not seeing it for sale. The Doors of Stone, right?
Nope, you may have your books mixed up.
