"Everything that Rises Must Converge" by Flannery O'Connor

Second book of short stories by O'Connor. Very strange stories, indeed. All seem to be very dark and HEAVY. I think that may be characteristic of America's Southern writers including William Faulkner, etc.

Fall Of Giants by Ken Follett. It's about five families brought together by the First World War, Russian Revolution and votes for women. As with any Follett story it's pretty long but tells a very good story. Not too far into it yet but the patterns which connect the families is taking shape well.

Mort by Terry Pratchett :) read Reaper Man at the start of the week, on a bit of a Discworld kick at the moment.

Just finished Honor of the Queen, the second in the Honor Harrington futuristic scifi series. A story specifically about Harrington, a woman warrior and Officer of the Queen's Manticore Navy, dealing with not one but two intolerant religious/sexist civilizations, and ultimately about the competition between her world of Manticore and the Havenites. Lots of action, surprises, and story twists. Fingers crossed the next episode continues in the same manner- thumbs up!:)

This book is available online to read for free, no e-reader required.
