Happy Wednesday, fellow reading addicts!
A long weekend is almost upon us and, at least where I’m at, this weekend marks the opening of pools around the state. Hard to believe seeing as we had near freezing lows this past weekend. Brrrr!
I’m gearing up for another garage sale this weekend as well as a bunch of other things coming up this summer. Strangely enough, the only books that are being put into the garage sale are books I either didn’t enjoy or have duplicates of. I tend to hoard books.
Then I head to London toward the end of June, so getting ready for that trip as well. It’s going to be a busy year and I’m looking forward to it.
If you were going to recommend a book(s) to read on my log flights, what would you recommend to me?
Enjoy and happy reading!

Mischief Maker
From the lead designer of Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim comes an epic journey into Norse Mythology. What if Loki was never the bad guy?
Loki, once a god, now nothing more than a stage magician in modern-day Chicago…
…his enemies from a thousand years ago have long memories.
Victors wrote the history, and Loki was blamed for the sins of the Norse gods. They can’t let him live in peace.
He has to set aside his new life to settle old grudges while coming to terms with what it means to be a man.
And a god.
If Loki fails, the nine realms will fall.
This is not superhero fiction. Mischief Maker breathes new life into Norse mythology, reinterpreting the legends through Loki’s modern lens.
Mischief Maker could be one of the best stories you read this year. Try it today.
New Orders
The year on the human home world calendar is 2220.
Life is a bit like the sci-fi shows of the 20th Century in some ways.
In others? Not so much.
I’m on a League of Civilizations star ship. Yep. Star Ship. In space.
Currently trying to physically, and emotionally, recover from a crash where I lost my partner. All would be going fine except we also have to survive an encounter with the deadliest lifeform in the universe.
A lifeform we were starting to think was just legend.
No big deal.
If it were just about the lives on board that would be one thing. But it’s not. What we do next will impact everyone, in all the League civilizations. That’s hundreds of billions of sentients. They could all be wiped out.
I’m running out of options.
And time.
Oh yeah, and as if dealing with trying to save everyone in the universe wasn’t enough, I also have to contend with a crush on the ship’s first officer who also happens to be… yes, you guessed it, a synthetic life form.
Fuck my life.
Surviving either of these things intact is going to be a challenge.
Sky Realm

Now Gwen, Vic, and their friends take to the skies for the climactic showdown with the evil wizard and all of his dark forces.
Will Gwen and Vic finally vanquish Azric? Or will the unleashed power of the Sky Realm be too much for them?
Shift on a Shingle
I’m not just fighting for myself. I’m fighting for my family.
Mother Shipton has taken my sister, Loralei.
Elemental Vampires are terrorizing the city.
How can you kill vampires who can’t be staked?
Every time I take one down it returns to the river and reemerges the following night.
I need to find Nimue. She’s a fairy who alone holds the power that might allow me to free Loralei.
Without her I won’t stand a chance against Shipton and the Elemental Vampires.
But how does one find a fairy who doesn’t want to be found? Will she even help me if I do?
The Tenderfoot
Master of the Western adventure, New York Times best selling author Robert Vaughan is back with another page turner sure to please Western fans of all ages.
When Turquoise Ranch hand Curly Stevens went into Flagstaff to meet a new employee arriving on the train, his first impression of Rob Barringer is of how big and strong the tenderfoot is. Rob’s eagerness to learn and his willingness to take on the most difficult jobs wins everyone over, including ranch foreman Jake Dunford, and Melanie Duford, his beautiful daughter.
Rob is well-educated, and his demeanor and intelligence catches the attention of Melanie, causing him difficulty with ranch manager Lee Garrison, who believes he has an exclusive right to Melanie. Garrison makes life difficult for the ranch hands, and Rob in particular.
When Jake Dunford makes a public accusation that the ranch manager is stealing from the ranch, Garrison reacts by firing everyone, but it is Garrison who is in for a big surprise.
“Vaughan offers readers a chance to hit the trail and not even end up saddle sore.”—Publishers Weekly
