2025 Reading

[a_cubed]

So, having caught up on posting about my 2024 reading, here's my 2025 reading so far.

1. An Inheritance of Magic by Benedict Jacka (re-read)
2. An Instruction in Shadow by Benedict Jacka
3. The Last hour Between Worlds by Melissa Caruso
4. We Have Always Been Here by Lena Nguyen
5. Servant of the Underworld by Aliette de Bodard
6. Harbinger of the Storm by Aliette de Bodard

The AdB are two of a trilogy. I'm not certain I'll continue with the third book. The first was OK, but the second is dragging a bit. I'll probably finish the second but unless it picks up, life's too short to try and push through things I'm not that interested in. These are billed as fantasy detective, but the mystery side isn't that much of a mystery. It's more of a fantasy thriller, but unfortunately not really thrilling enough.
