I hope all have had a happy Thanksgiving and are recovering from your turkey overdose! This time around, my acquisitions are a bit more eclectic. In genre, I got the whole Savannah Witch series (that I will make further posts on), an old Sci-Fi classic, Have Gun Will Travel along side some of my new selections like Blood Rites: Dresden Files 6.
 The Line Book 1 |  |  |
 Blood Rites Dresden Files 6By Jim Butcher |  Who Goes There By John W. Campbell | Have Space Suit Will Travel by Robert A Heinlein |
Out of genre, I have checked out a few more varied titles.
 Legion Skin Deep by Brandon Sanderson |  The Disaster Artist by Greg Sestero and Tom Sissel |  I Capture the Castle by Dodie Smith |
I loved the first Legion novella so when this second in the series came out I snapped it up right away. I caught The Disaster Artist on sale and believe it to be a real find. It's so odd, it has to be true. I Capture the Castle was a book I used to 'clean my literary palate'. It's nice to get into a story that is a bit more grounded in reality and helps me get more out of fantasy.
Last but never least....
The Lord of the Rings and bacon bookmark were for my son. The sonic screwdriver (10th Doctor version) is mine.What's new on your shelf?

Ooh, I didn't know there was another Legion novella. *zips off to try and find it*
ReplyDeleteHope you enjoy the new books!
Great selection. I see several I need to check out.
ReplyDeleteWhere did you get the Sonic Screwdriver? You got a few books that are new to me, but they do look interesting.
ReplyDeleteGrace @ Books of Love
OMG you got Jim Butcher book!
ReplyDeleteThe Line series sounds interesting with its southern gothic fantasy theme. Adding it to my tbr list. Happy reading.
ReplyDeleteOoh nice! All are new to me but I hope you enjoy each and every one of them!

Have a GREAT day!

We got the screwdriver, Lord of the Rings book and the bacon bookmark from Barnes and Noble.
ReplyDeleteThanks Nikki. I've been waiting for that book for at least a month and have the next Reckoners book (Firefight) on preorder!
ReplyDeleteI couldn't help it, I have a minor addiction to the Dresden Files series!
ReplyDeleteI love Heinlein's books. I got introduced to them in my Sci-Fi course in school. Enjoy it!

I like to dig in to the classics every so often. It's interesting to compare the older visions of the future against technology of today. There's probably a lesson there somewhere.
ReplyDeleteI have got to get started on the Jim Butcher series. I hear such great things about it! Great haul this week!
ReplyDeleteYou have some great looking books. I hope you enjoy them all. Happy reading, Robert.
ReplyDeleteRobert, I really like the looks of the Witching Savannah series. I'll have to check those out. And, since you're such a SF fan (as well as fantasy), you might consider taking the 42 SF Challenge for 2015. We'd love to have you join us.
ReplyDeleteI have to admit, one of my greatest draws to the Dresden series is the humor. The storylines, the characters and the writing style is all really good, too. The humor in the books will always be the cherry on top for me.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Sherry!
ReplyDeleteI'll have more to say later on the ,Witching Savannah, series ;) I will definitely check into the 42 SF Challenge, Elsi. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI need to check out the Harry Dresden books. I've been getting the comic books and I loved the TV show. I did download the first book on my Kindle, but haven't read it yet.
ReplyDeleteAs usual, Tammy, the books are better than the show. I liked the show but, the characters are richer and deeper in the books. Also, the shoe gave me a decent mental image for Harry. None of the other characters quite matched up.
