Summer Reading

With a change of season, book reading seems to come into play. Here, I offer some books worthy of notice. Some I've read, others are in the reading pile...

Books Update

Image
I just finished reading Catching Fire  (what an ending! good thing I have the set so I don't have to wait for the finale) and will start Mockingjay  as my next book when it's time to read next. As kind of a recap post, here are some books I recommend. They're somewhat lesser known in comparision to say, Harry Potter, Ice and Fire, Hunger Games,  for example.    His Dark Materials  omnibus by Philip Pullman Way of Kings  by Brandon Sanderson, first in the Stormlight series Pillars of the Earth  by Ken Follett Its sequel, W orld Without End Last Kingdom  by Bernard Cornwell, first in his 'Saxon Stories' series Divergent  by Veronica Roth, first in her trilogy Dragon's Path  by Daniel Abraham, first in the Dagger and Coin  series Hope you look into some of these. No matter what you are reading, or will read, enjoy!

Author Spotlight: Bernard Cornwell

That time again to do another author / series spotlight. After mentioning George R.R. Martin's Song of Ice and Fire  series (which the HBO series Game of Thrones is based on); Robert Jordan's Wheel of Time ; and Brandon Sanderson's brand-new Stormlight , I had uncovered another author and series I wish to recommend.
