I was pretty busy last week, so couldn’t post the weekly thread. Sorry about that.

Since the last update, I finished Cytonic by Brandon Sanderson, book 3 of the sci-fi series Cytoverse. After that, I continued with the last novella Evershore by Brandon and Janci Patterson. Now reading Defiant, the fourth and the final book in the series.

Also reading Design Patterns, a classic book for software design. While I have read about these online and studied from other sources, I never actually read the actual book. So fixing that now.

What about all of you? What have you been listening and reading lately?

    Just started “A Curse of Krakens” by Kevin Hearne (the guy who wrote the Iron Druid series). This is the third in the Seven Kennings series. The series has been pretty fun so far, with an interesting magic system. The prose is only so-so, but the way the story is told is unique and fun.

      Is the series finished, or is he planning more books?

        I am about half way through it, and it feels like it is on an arc to complete. His website calls it a trilogy, so I’m assuming it is complete.
