Book Reviews (1 of 2)
May. 7th, 2008 10:32 pmSo, about half of these I got thanks to buying two books of short stories -- My Big Fat Supernatural Wedding and My Big Fat Supernatural Honeymoon and reading them on the bus when I visited my friend Katie. I had mostly bought them because Jim Butcher had thrown in a Dresden Files short for both of them -- Wedding featured the wedding of Billy and Georgia the werewolves and also Murphy meeting Bob, and Honeymoon had an adventure with Harry and Miss Gard (Johnny Marcone's supernatural security consultant).
The short story books themselves were decent -- there were some hits and misses in there, but it had a wide variety of authors, generally centered around the urban/historical fantasy and romance. So, I picked out a few authors I had liked the work of, and bought their books. (Well, ordered them through Paperback Swap -- I had a bunch of credit stored up.)
Between that, some recs form fiends, and a new book in a series I read coming out, I had plenty to read when I visited Colorado.
( Long Reviews are Long )
And, I'm turning this in for now. More later!
