I received my last two books from my Santa today! Here are the four of them. (They're on Kindle as requested, so here are the covers)



The Eye of the World by Robert Jordan is a book that's been floating at the periphery of my interest for a while, but it's been a bit daunting to get started with a 14 book series. Finally having it in my collection may just be the kick in the pants I need. At least this series is COMPLETE, which would be a welcome change from the 'when's the next loving book coming out' feeling I get from the Locke Lamora, Kingkiller, Stormlight, and Expanse series.

Space Chronicles by Neil Degrasse Tyson looks like something that would totally interest me. I don't think it was directly on my wishlists, but you correctly deduced that space is something I'm very interested in.

C is for Cthulhu will be something useful for the little tyke in a few months. She is not yet to the range where she can really sit and look at a book, but soon she will be introduced to the horrors of the Lovecraft universe (and the alphabet).

The Slow Regard of Silent Things by Patrick Rothfuss is something directly off my wishlist, and since the Kingkiller series is one of my favorites (and apparently, Rothfuss is a third or fourth cousin to me, according to my second cousin), getting this book is much appreciated.


All in all, a great haul from my Santa, and I'm very excited to read them all!

Those are pretty good presents for an eight year old
