Just FInished SIDEWINDERS. Great book, am totally on board for bk 3 when it shows, am mildly annoyed with myself for starting this series knowing i'll have to wait between installments. Redick improved on a lot of what i enjoyed from MASTER ASSASSINS here. His characters were quirkier and better, his action moved faster and there was more of it, the worldbuilding remained low key but engaging. Kadri and Mektu are so so much more engaging here, both individually and specifically in their relationship as brothers. The supporting cast is better developed too. More than anything, this book is essentially one long travelogue slog of slogs through desert after desert, and it NEVER got boring for that, which is an impressive feat bcs i tend to tune out of books that take that kind of approach. Great read, some excellent hooks for bk 3, it gets a pre-order whenever the listing drops.
I have caught up with all of my audiodramas.... DERELICT S2 is not disappointing, the same kind of Jim Cameron sf story as S1, upping the scifi elements nicely, and the sfx are jus a little bit less blasting over the dialogue. MIDNIGHT BURGER continues to cook but new eps are only monthly, alas. All caught up on MAGNUS PROTOCOLS, the follow up to MAGNUS ARCHIVES, am genuinely curious where they're going w this. The little hints dribbling out from the Archives' end are brutal, in a good way. Mid season hiatus in progress tho.
So naturally i started a new one.... THE SILT VERSES. The writing on this is exceptional, it's an alt-world where gods are common and have been industrialized, religions are everywhere, and the bigger religions routinely absorb or eliminate upstart groups. The story follows a small number of worshippers of a river god called The Trawler Man (lovely fellow w a tendency to turn people into crab zombies), a cop hunting them (cops have their own god, The Cloak, he's a bastard), and their hostage Paige who works in advertising (which is as messed up as you'd hope in this world). It's VERY clever and well thought out and i'm all-in to see (hear) where it's going. The Writer takes full advantage of the medium, having conversations take place in the foreground and background, narration run over other actions. He has a framing sequence with a radio host on a 'pilgrimage' to worship his god by staying awake and on the air as long as possible that's genuinely twisted. Worth a listen.
The Silt Verses sounds intriguing - subscribed! -

I'm much closer to the Line fire (San Bernardino County), and uh closer to the Bridge fire than I thought, since it's so far east -- triangulation! Airport fire is thankfully quite a bit away. I'm not in any harm's way to my knowledge, aside from the air quality. Definitely got a sore throat going. The sky is more grey than orange today -- is that a good sign?
@MP: The original Adama is Lorne Greene right? He also had a cool rumbly voice, though not quite JEJ level.
That's unfortunate! If you want to escape to the coast for a bit, I'm currently living in Oceanside! -
