I haven't heard Abercrombie's name mentioned much lately on other sites I occasionally visit Larry Send a noteboard - 13/10/2016 05:54:07 PM

Just finished Half a King by Abercrombie (it was okay, and I enjoyed it more than The Blade Itself), started in on House of Shattered Wings by Aliette de Bodard (really enjoying it so far) and Sorcerer of the Wildeeps (not sure of this one yet, but the prose is very sharp).

Isn't that the "YA" book/series he was writing recently? Have heard good things about de Bodard before, though.

If Bob Dylan's lyrics count as literature in the eyes of the Nobel committee, why not? Larry - 13/10/2016 05:48:08 PM 853 Views
