Oh, yay, a novel that can only be understood with Cliff Notes (AKA wikipedia).

Nancy Shaffer is starting We Are Legion (We Are Bob) (Bobiverse, #1)
Re-reading one of my favorite series in anticipation of a fourth book coming out this month. I recall being disappointed at the end of the third book because it was promoted as a cap to the "trilogy" and left the main story line unresolved at the end. So high hopes for this good-natured exploration story.

I've been doing a lot of rereads of my comfort series lately while I wait for something interesting to appear on Audible or from my library holds list.

Nancy Shaffer is 55% done with Field of Dishonor (Honor Harrington, #4)
I honestly do not understand why some writers have this romantic view of eras gone by and write the future to resemble it.

Nancy Shaffer is 65% done with Poseidon's Wake (Poseidon's Children, #3)
"She's my fake robot ancestor, not yours!"

I had about 5 days until my new Audible points were available, but I'd picked the library clean of everything except bad Hunger Games wanna-bes, so I bought a clump of Audible points just to start the last book of this trilogy.

Stepping into another book in a good series is like drinking a warm chai (joke). Okay, it's like cuddling in a fuzzy blanket in winter.

The Wil Wheaton meta moments in the audio version are delightful.

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory meets Neuromancer. I'm down for this.

Nancy Shaffer is reading Jupiter (The Grand Tour, #9)
Not as good as some of Bova's other Grand Tour books, especially since it has the misfortune of being read after reading The Medusa Chronicles. And Bova doesn't add much to the Jovian zoo Clarke and his successors didn't already think of.
