New Books and ARCs, 8/23/19
Posted on August 23, 2019 Posted by John Scalzi 19 Comments
I got back from Ireland and this stack of new books and ARCs was waiting for me. What here would you be happy to have for your own? Share your thoughts in the comments.
I want to read The Golden Wolf by Linnea Hartsuyker, but I need to read the second book, The Sea Queen first.
Thoroughly enjoyed S.K. Dunstall’s Stars Uncharted and Linesman series so Stars Beyond is my pick!
Kassandra Montag will be at the 2019 Nebraska Book Festival next month. AFTER THE FLOOD looks quite intriguing.
The Babysitters Coven sounds fun!
It’s labeled for teens and young adults and the (pre-order) Kindl version costs 10 USD
I find lots of YA stuff worth reading and I’m neither young nor, except when I have to be, an adult.
Have read Uncharted and it’s pretty good and also like Williamson
I really hope ‘Babysitter Coven’ is as awesome as the blurb makes it sound.
Um, John? Getting a bit ahead of yourself here. It should be 8/23/19, not 9/23/19. :) I’d blame the Jet lag.
Wow. Babysitters Coven is the first time a title has really grabbed me in a fair while. The description sounds great, too. I’ll look up some more, but that one had an immediate pull.
Kevin J Anderson and Sarah Hoyt wrote a book together? No way am I missing that one.
Unnatural Magic sounds like a fun read.
Remember when publishing was doomed, DOOOOOMMMED!?
The Nobody People by Bob Proehl is amazing. There’s an X-Men kind of feel to it while Proehl still manages to keep it fresh, exciting and all his own. I really hope with how this ends it means we will be hearing more from Fahima, Emmeline, and the other characters he created.
Much love to Bob Proehl for my signed ARC received at BookCon! It was amazing to have the opportunity to chat with you.
Cycle of the Werewolf is one I’d like to read.
There are some good looking books in that stack. Montag’s book is an intriguing debut novel. I would probably read The Babysitters Coven on merits of the title alone. I’ve read Cycle of the Werewolf. It’s fun size, about 12000 words but moves even faster. Also, you should read A Conspiracy of Truths before A Choir of Lies.
After the Flood and The Golden Wolf look interesting.
‘A Choir of Lies’ is a GREAT title. The book design is gorgeous, too.
The Babysitters Coven’s blurb “Adventures in Babysitting meets Buffy the Vampire Slayer” is a hard hook for me. Ordered!
The Cycle of the Werewolf seems promising, as far as the tittle goes. HHmmm.
