It has been a while since I filled you in on my reading list. I ran out of new books and did a bunch of re-reading for a while there.

I cruised through:
Dragon Prince and Star Scroll by Melanie Rawn. I have read them each at least 5 times. As I have said before anything with dragons is usually good enough for me. These have some good characters and a unique interaction with magic that I like. (I am pretty sure my sister B has read them 20 times). There are more in the series.

Then The Hawk’s Grey Feather by Patricia Kennealy. An Arthurian based story, told from Talesin’s point of view. Celtic influences but with starships. Good stuff. First in a trilogy. I have read them half a dozen times at least.

Then I got an Amazon gift certificate for my birthday and ordered Eon: Dragoneye Reborn by Allison Goodman. Cheesy title and dumb cover art kept me from buying it before. But a recommendation from Bookshelves of Doom (who has very similar taste in books to mine!) convinced me to order it. Read her summary, she does a beautiful job. I liked it a lot. I look forward to reading more.

Another recommendation from Bookshelves lead me to Silent in the Grave by Deanna Rayborn. I LOVE these books. I am in the middle of the second one right now. Historical mysteries. I have read some who criticize them for not being historically accurate enough, but who cares? The characters are highly entertaining and the mystery itself had many twists which I didn’t expect. Thoroughly entertaining and at points witty enough to make me chuckle out loud. I did have an interesting deja-vu moment – the first book has many parallels to Tasha Alexander’s And Only to Deceive. Similar characters and a couple of familiar situations that they find themselves in.
