While I'm looking forward the the physical books this week, I'm extremely excited for the ebooks. One in particular...
Star Trek: Enterprise: Rise of the Federation: A Choice of Futures by Chistopher L. Bennett
This is How You Die: Stories of the Inscrutable, Infallible, Inescapable Machine of Death, edited by Ryan North, Matthew Bernardo, David Malki ! - This is the follow up to the Machine of Death anthology which I enjoyed but never finished. I just felt like this concept was ... done to death. I read the first story and again it was good, but I just can't handle another batch of stories like this.
This River Awakens by Steven Erikson - This is Erikson's first novel that's being released for the first time in the US. Very much looking forward to it.
The World of the End by Ofir Touche Gafla - This is really an odd book that I'm about 30% through. I don't know if I like it yet, but it's certainly unique and compelling. There are a couple giveaways I listed on the other blog here.
eBooks:
The Godborn (The Sundering #2) by Paul S. Kemp - Part of the event above, but number two.
The Crown Tower (Riyria Chronicles #1) by Michael J. Sullivan - The first in a two book prequel series to Sullivan's excellent Riyria Revelations.
The Rose and Thorn (Riyria Chronicles #2) by Michael J. Sullivan - The second.
The Republic of Thieves (Gentlemen Bastards #3) by Scott Lynch - Only the most anticipated book of the year if not the last couple years. Very happy to have this, I guess it's time to start Red Seas Under Red Skies since I waited until this was a sure thing before I would start RSURS.
Three by Jay Posey is on my list too. Hopefully the book is as good as the cover.
ReplyDeleteI ordered copies of The Crown Tower (Riyria Chronicles #1) by Michael J. Sullivan and The Rose and Thorn (Riyria Chronicles #2) by Michael J. Sullivan in advance.
Like you I still need to read Red Seas Under Red Skies. The Republic of Thieves (Gentlemen Bastards #3) by Scott Lynch is on my list.
Now I need more time for reading .....
Yes, yes, and yes! The great problem of the bibliophile. That or reading faster and at this point in my life I don't think it'll change. :)
ReplyDeleteLooks like you and I pretty much got the same ebooks these past few weeks. :) There are quite a few that I'm looking forward to sinking my teeth into.
ReplyDeleteAnd yeah, The World of the End does sound odd, but from everything I hear, it's a really satisfying book. I'm quite curious about it myself.
I just gave up on The World of the End. You'll probably like it, but it was really depressing for me.
