  • Daughter of the Deep by Rick Riordan. I’ve read most of Riordan’s other books (really need to catch up on the last few Percy Jackson related books), and I’m always head over heels for the way he takes existing myth and recasts it into a fun story that still plumbs the depths of the source material. This one is essentially “unknown to the wider world, 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea was based on actual events; what is the fall out of that today?” I’ve never read 20,000 Leagues, but I might have to do so after I finish this.



  • I just finished Battle Ground by Jim Butcher - the latest of the Dresden Files. It was my first read of it, and wow was it a doozy. I really enjoyed it, but it’s probably going to take me a few days to really digest it all.

    I’m thinking my next book will be Children of Ragnarok, by Cinda Williams Chima. It’s the first in a new series from an author I’ve been reading for quite a while. I really enjoyed her previous YA fantasy series - the Heir Chronicles, the Seven Realms and the Shattered Realms - and I’m pretty excited to get into yet another one.
