Reading The Twelve by Justin Cronin. Book 2 of The Passage trilogy. Around 180 or so pages in, and we are still in the past, the story is interesting, so reading about these characters, but I am still not sure if it will have any effect in the future / present, or it’s just for world building. I am now invested enough now to see where it goes though.

What about all of you? What have you been reading or listening to lately?

    I’ve been going through the Powder Mage trilogy. It’s not going to be going on my top ten of all time or anything, but I’ve been enjoying it. Gunpowder based magic and a fantasy French revolution are pretty good foundations for a story.

      I finished reading the second book almost a month ago. I don’t have the urge to start the third anytime soon (though I eventually will so as to get that ‘closure’).

      This used to be recommended a lot on reddit, back in the day, going to keep my expectations in check when I get around to them now.
