This was a very busy week for me, hardly got time to read 100 or so pages. Still reading Grave Peril by Jim Butcher. Book 3 of The Dresden Files.
What about all of you, what have you been reading?

What about all of you, what have you been reading?
I just finished, A series of unfortunate events #2 - The Reptile Room
I am also re-reading Discworld in order and have read Men At Arms, next its Soul Music
Currently I am reading, John Scalzi - Old Man’s War, and so far its a good!
I have been following John Scalzi on Twitter (and now mastadon) for many years, but I still haven’t read anything from him. I think it’s about time I do something about it.
I was going to start on Ian M Banks’ Culture series, but I read a few reviews that said his writing style is a bit repetitive, and then I found John Scalzi, my first impression of Old Man’s War reminds me a bit of Pratchett and Douglas Adams, and I hope it continues in that fashion.
That’s a very high praise. Going to get it as soon as I can now.
I finished Old Mans War it is still good!, Scalzi does a good job with the world building, and just FYI it’s a bit gory from time to time.
Minor spoiler about the setting
I like the multiverse approach to interstellar travel it allows for endless possibilities.
Having watched Rick and Morty helps with understanding multiverse idea (Currently its a less crazy version).
I checked with my local shop, they didn’t had Old Mans War, going to order it online. Thanks for the info!
I end up zigagging in the Discworld. One day, I’ll have a go at reading it in order.
GNU PTerry.
I have read Discworld both by series (Wizards, Witches, The Watch, …) and in order, the good thing with reading in order is that you get a break from the different characters and you notice the cameos easier.
