Re: Books: What are you currently reading?
Conan is a great character but I really like one of his lesser known characters, Cormac Mac Art.

Oh Huh
Forgot about this thread.

In the past four months I have read,

Middlegame by Seanan McGuire
Seasonal Fears by Seanan McGuire
October Daye series by Seanan McGuire (16 books)
Reaper Man by Terry Pratchett
Swords, Spells, and Stealth series by Drew Hayes (5 books)
Dreadnought by April Daniels

Plan on reading the sequel to Dreadnought and then I'm going to pick up McGuire's Incryptid series. After that, who knows?

~Dysole, who has been reading a lot lately

Impressive list there Dysole. Do you prefer electronic or hard copy?

Yeah, Cormac is pretty obscure, cool character.
Love how he had a sidekick.

One of my favorites is the Bran Brak and Kull crossover.

My favorite character is St Agnes and after that Black Turlough.
He had so many great characters.
One guy would re tell his past lives so each story was about a different character. That was cool because you never new how it would end for him.

The boxer stories are fun as well. Really like his HPL style stories.

Preference
Paperback.

Hilariously, book 16 of the October Daye series I got an ebook instead of a physical copy because hardback was the only option and the rest were in paperback. A ton of friends all immediately understood when I explained.

~Dysole, and how she found out she had a ton of reading friends

Re: Books: What are you currently reading?
1. Lots of history related biographies from a retired librarian friend lately: Robert the Bruce, Oliver Cromwell, Charles II, Peter the Great and Douglas MacArthur. You learn something new every time! Having now grown into a crusty old coot with lots of life experience, I read more biographies than I used to do in general, which always helps me get perspective on life!

2. My self study Venice project, starting with a hard to get The Secret Venice of Corto Maltese: Fantastic and Hidden Itineraries by Hugo Pratt, Guido Fuga, and Lele Vianello a good pal found for me, after I failed to buy it on my trip to Venice, and it turned out seemingly not available back here in the USA (check out the International Amazon site)! I like to call that city "Disneyland For Adults." There was so much to see there in the four or five days I had years ago, but this book reveals much I didn't get to see.

Pals of the artist and creator of the graphic novel character Corto Maltese, an ex merchant seaman Indiana Jones type of adventurer around WWI (yes, I do own the obscure Corto board game by Metagot) was Hugo Pratt, who roamed his native Venice write down some of the many walks they took together there. I've also read several novels about the more well known fictional Venician detective Comissario Guido Brunetti by Donna Leon, an American who lived in that city for years, and draws unforgettable portraits of the society there. So in this way I get to revisit the amazing City by proxy! I'll be showing the pal who got me the book some travel videos of Venice I have soon as a reward, since he's never been there (his girlfriend has).

I finished Armor and also read The Stalking Moon by TV Olson and Black Gate 15 (a fantasy anthology from 2011 I picked up from a library sale.)

Just started Tarzan the Untamed by E.R. Burroughs.
