The Life of the World to Come
Just finished the latest Company novel by Kage Baker. It was good, though not as good as the previous ones. It got a bit weird at the end, and it didn't really end as much as stop - clearly leading into a next book.
I'd recommend reading her short story collections first. One of the characters was "born" there.
It also seems the next one in the series is out, or very nearly so.
I haven't been reading as much as I'd like. I keep making a deal with myself that I'll read on the ferry ride home, and then I end up leaving work in the middle of something and using the ferry ride to finish that something. This morning I cracked the book open during breakfast and only had a chapter left when I had to leave. So I left the computer in the bag and finished the book on the way in.
Next on the list is Woken Furies - on loan from the local library and sitting, untouched, as it's due date draws ever closer.
