Mmm, I’ve been adding to my shelves.  I couldn’t help it!  I blame Wondrous Reads for inventing the ‘ordering finger’ which sometimes slips!  Recent acquisitions include:

Kindle: bought: A Matter of Blood by Sarah Pinborough 

Kindle: Netgalley: The Iron Ghost by Jen Williams (so looking forward to this one!)

Gift (thank you Wondrous Reads): The City Stained Red by Sam Sykes

Others bought:

Fantasy Faction Anthology, 2 x Terry Brooks, The Dark Legacy of Shannara No.1 and 2, and Fevre Dream by GRRMartin:

    I don’t mind you blaming me! Yay books!

      That phrase is a keeper – that and ‘winning his pipes’!!!

    Ohhh!!!! Some great books! Fevre Dream is amazing, love it! Nice to see others getting FF anthology. 😦 I’m still waiting after ordering it 2 years ago. One of these days I might get a copy.

      Oh no! That’s a shame. I waited a while for my copy but I think that was because of problems with the publishers – or maybe more orders than were expected coming in?? You should email marc aplin and let him know!
      Looking forward to Fevre Dream – it might have been your site that I picked up a review from?

    Eeeee! You have the Iron Ghost. You must tell me more about this…a sequel, follow up, short story addon to The Copper Promise, or what? Either way I know I probably won’t be able to get my hands on it because it will most likely be UK only, damn.

    I also got an ARC of The City Stained Red from the US publisher of the book, and I should wait to read as it’s not coming out here until months from now in the new year, but my fingers are itching to dig right in already.

      I know – The Iron Ghost – will be reading that pdq (so excited I nearly had a kitten!) It’s on Netgalley but it doesn’t say UK only. Not due out till next Feb. I’ve been trying to not request off Netgalley as I want to get my stats up (currently only about 65%) but when I saw this I pressed ‘request’ so quick that I caused a small hurricane on on the other side of the world! It’s a full story with the three together again. Get on there and ask for a copy sharphis!
      City Stained Red – I really wanted that and I just got lucky!

    Still waiting on Copper Promise over here. And waiting. And waiting.

    Fevre Dream is really good.

    • @lynnsbooks's avatar lynnsbooks

      How come – is it not released in US???
      Looking forward to Fevre Dream – I’ve heard good things about it!

    Great selection of books. I particularly look forward to your thoughts on Fevre Dream by George R R Martin.

    • @lynnsbooks's avatar lynnsbooks

      Hah, have you read Fevre Dream as well??? I’m hearing such good things – frankly, I confess, I’d not heard of it before recently but I’m all excited to read it now!

        No I haven’t read it but I’m interested in reading it 🙂

    ooo that Iron Ghost looks like something I must check out. I don’t know if I’ll read The City Stained Red – but maybe I’ll snag it and Maggie might want to read it.
