Servant of the Underworld

June 30, 2025November 30, 2023

I don’t know what I was expecting, but it wasn’t a murder mystery in the Aztec empire with a priest of the dead as investigator. Even though that’s part of the book description.

Nettle & Bone

June 30, 2025November 20, 2023

I had high expectations for this after it won the 2023 Hugo Award for Best Novel.

Magic for Liars

June 30, 2025November 16, 2023

It was an entertaining murder mystery with magical elements and a bit of romance thrown in.

The Light Brigade

June 30, 2025November 15, 2023

Dark with a ray of hope. Relatable, unfortunately. Complex and confusing.

Six Wakes

June 30, 2025November 3, 2023

The mystery ended up being irrelevant, at least to me. I found the whole exploration of cloning more interesting.

The Locked Tomb

June 30, 2025November 1, 2023

I LOVED Gideon the Ninth. One of my favorite characters ever.
