Holidays are over! Happy New Year!

I didn’t get much to read over the holidays, but I finished The Black Company by Glen Cook. The story was interesting but the way it is written made it hard for me to read. Still, going to continue with the trilogy and see if second book is any better in that regard.

Currently reading Dead Beat by Jim Butcher. Loving the book. The series just keeps getting better and better.

What about you? What have you been reading or listening?

    As a fan of the game Dead Space, Dead Silence sounds great. Going to check it out.

    The Expanse stopped? I was hoping to watch it after reading all the books (which I haven’t even started yet). Well, I guess one less thing in my to-watch list.

      They brought the series to an end (and a good one!), so you can just go ahead and watch it - I enjoyed it a lot. The books simply extend beyond that, plus they have three prequels and some fillers building the backstories of some characters. Bit of an “extended universe” vibe.

      And now I’ll check out Dead Space, haven’t come across it yet. Thanks!

        Ooooh, if you play video games, and love space horror, Dead Space is a must play! The original trilogy is old, for PS3 era, but they just did a remake of first Dead Space, that got very good reviews. Do check it out.

        Thanks for the info about the show. I try to read the books first before watching anything based on the books, so will watch it later.
