Current Read


What book are you reading right now?

Having just completed his “Last Eternal” series of books ….

…. I am just embarking on Jacob Peppers “Seven Virtues” series…..

…. I decided to skip “The Silent Blade” and dive straight in to “A Sellsword’s Compassion”.

I stumbled across Jacob Peppers work after finishing the latest Lindsay Buroker offering. I was trawling the Kindle library looking for a suitable read. Something in the synopsis for “The Wandering Sword” piqued my curiosity.

It turned out to be a good choice, and before long, I had devoured the whole series, so far ! And, having been left hanging by “City of Steel and Shadow,” wanting more, I decided to take a run at the “Seven Virtues.”

Jacob Peppers writing can be a bit gritty and, at times, little verbose, but I think the story lines are great.

So, if you like a little sword and sorcery, a bit of sci-fantasy, then these books are for you.

Where Did The Time Go ?


Which activities make you lose track of time?

The primary activity that I engage with is reading. Once I am locked into a good read I have no idea where time goes.

Ask my wife, she will confirm. Two days already, this week, I have spoilt our evening meal.

Just last night I virtually incinerated a beautiful gammon steak while my nose was buried in the latest Lindsay Buroker offering. She may not be a challenge for the Hemingway buffs but her books are a good read with enough pace to keep the adrenaline flowing and great dollop of humour too.
