Remember Gods Behaving Badly?
I read this back in 2008 and it was a great read - the first time I kind of 'got' how the Greek gods worked, and why they were fun. It was a funny, great book. Well, Marie Phillips has a new book coming out, The Table of Less Valued Knights and I (and Random House) am very excited. It sounds like the same kind of fun, easy read, but with Arthur, or some version of the knights. Maybe Monty Python-esque? Merely a flesh wound!
For even more fun, there is even a Less Valued Knight Name Generator.
You may now refer to me as Sir Flarn Deathstorm, Ruiner of Maps.
Other upcoming books that I am very excited about - so excited, I might even buy the hard-cover copy when they come out on September 2. Both on the same date? That's not fair!
Sarah Waters - The Paying Guest
1920s London.
After WW1.
The changing class structure.
As a Downton Abbey fan, I'd be excited by the setting, but it's Sarah Waters! Fingersmith, The Little Stranger, Night Watch?
It's already mentioned as a Booker Prize candidate.
Tana French - The Secret Place
This series, The Dublin Murder Squad has been getting better and better with each book. The main character changes in each book but is connected some how to a previous cop.
In the Woods
The Likeness
Faithful Place
Broken Harbour
One of my favourite mystery series on the go.
