Reading The Twelve by Justin Cronin. Book 2 of The Passage trilogy. Around 180 or so pages in, and we are still in the past, the story is interesting, so reading about these characters, but I am still not sure if it will have any effect in the future / present, or it's just for world building. I am now invested enough now to see where it goes though.

What about all of you? What have you been reading or listening to lately?

@MisterNeon @dresden interesting

It really is and it's thorough. It's got charts of when Tezcatlipoca shows up visually in codices which I can then cross reference.

@MisterNeon I see. I'm not that versed in Aztec mithology. Right now I'm reading Gary Jennings' Aztec. Have you read it?

Actually I haven't. A cursory Google search shows it's well reviewed and pretty accurate for what we knew in 70's and 80's.

@MisterNeon Seems very well researched, and is very entertaining as a novel.
