Library book. I had to return it before vacation. It's good so I'll get it again.

I've read a few here, and now getting notes of minor and/or major spoilers, so I'm setting this aside to read more as I will. Also, the "White Sands" has a graphic novel section which is printed too small for my old man eyes.

Not Killed

My Fan-X purchase reading spree continues. The author is a very enthusiastic seller, and clearly loved his own work that I broke down and bought this one. Is it as bad ass as he made it sound? We'll soon find out!

Good so far! The writing isn't spectacular, but Alsop has a way with dialogue and with pacing that keeps things fun and snappy.

I've started this, but went back to my backlogue of books. So far this has a lot of elements of Sanderson's style, which if you really like Sanderson you'll love. For me it's not made me go nuts and want to stay up late finishing it.

Again, he's not a bad writer. I'm just not into Sanderson as so many I know and I'm never certain why.

I have this weird tick: If there's characters I like and I know they'll go through bad things, then I start avoid the book. I'm going to finish this, but every time I start again, things get worse for them. Stop being mean!

I've stalled out on this book. I'm what ... 2/3rds done and there's not enough people I like enough to follow all the way. I'll force my self to finish eventually, but this one so far just doesn't grab me as well it was sold to me.

Butler is one of my latest personal discoveries and I'm glad I found his books. Great style so far, and he's proving excellent at changing character perspectives within the narrative.

I'd read "Hard Magic" in the past and was iffy on it. Clearly that should not have been my first Correia book. I've liked the start of this and his "Dead Six" series a lot more.
