Is a man not entitled to the haw of his maw?
Grimey Drawer
I forgot to do it last year, so I'm in for this year.

80 sounds like a nice round number.

Not going for any specific challenges though, I'm not a fan of checklists.

I'll update this post later on with the stuff I've gotten read so far.

THE ROAD SO FAR:
1: Waking Gods - Sylvain Neuval
2: Sleeping Giants ARC - Sylvain Neuvel
3: Super City Cops : Undercover Blues - Keith R. DeCandido
4: Super City Cops : Avenging Amethyst - Keith R. DeCandido
5: Gryphon Precinct - Keith R. Decandido
6: Goblin Precinct - Keith R. Decandido
7: Unicorn Precinct - Keith R. Decandido
8: Dragon Precinct - Keith R. Decandido
9: Penric's Demon - Lois McMaster Bujold
10: One Fell Sweep - Ilona Andrews
11: Immortal and the Island of Impossible Things - Gene Doucette
12: Flash - Susan Griffith
13: Kingston Raine and the Grim Reaper - Jackson Lear
14: The Cambion Cycle - John G. Hartness


Waking Gods/Sleeping Giants is kinda cool. It's sort of The Iron Giant meets Evangelion meets Gundam in a weird way, but also nothing like that at all. Worth checking out if you like big robot books though. Sci Fi but it's pretty hard sci fi (except for the alien tech).

Super City Cops is a police procedural in a world where superheroes exist, and I love those books. The Dragon Precinct books are a fantasy world police procedural. Highly recommend all of them if you are looking for something that's like a crime solving book but involving either superheroes or just fantasy stuff.

Penric's Demon was apparently the start of some series but it didn't really click too well with me.

One Fell Sweep is the latest book in an Innkeeper romance series that's Urban Fantasy, but while it is romance it's not porn, and generally is a neat adventure book with some feel good moments.

Immortal and the Island of Impossible Things is pretty cool. If you have read the other books in the series and liked em, you'll dig this.

Flash was neat. I'm a sucker for the TV show and this is a novel of a new series of stories based off the show (and Arrow). It was a pretty good read.

Kingston Raine was great. Basically, somehow Death manages to kill a fictional character (i.e. out of a book he was reading) and things get... complicated.

The Cambion Cycle is the year 2 anthology of short stories from Hartness in the Quincy Harker series. Pretty good series and on Kindle Unlimited if you wanna give it a shot.

14: The Cambion Cycle - John G. Hartness


15: ERIS - 1-8 (short stories, novellas, etc) - Sort of funny books about demon hunters who work for a company, and the weird poo poo they get into. Not exactly great and wonderful, but still entertaining. All on KU if you want to give em a shot.
16: The Breach - Patrick Lee
17: Deep Sky - Patrick Lee
18 : Ghost Country - Patrick Lee
This is the Breach series, and while it's only a 3 book set, it's pretty cool. I really enjoyed it, and the way the completely weird poo poo happens you never really feel like it's a plot you can guess where it's going.
19: Working Stiff - Judy Melenik - Book about doing autopsies in NYC and the weird poo poo that medical examiners have happen. Good book, but I wasn't fond of how it ended with the 9/11 attacks. Went from interesting and kinda funny to bleak in a manner of like, 3 pages.

20: The Translators - Gord Rollo
One of my favorite books, simply because there is NO WAY to describe it without somehow destroying the fun of the plot. Basically, it's batshit crazy and somehow works Mayan pyramids in with Nessie and a guy who can translate any language he hears.
21: The History Major - Michael Phillip Cash
Not fantastic, just weird. Girl wakes up in a college with a roommate she doesn't remember and classes she doesn't recall signing up for, and blah blah it's just a let down.
22: Super City Cops : Secret Identities - Keith R. Decandido
Good read. I'm a sucker for police procedural novels in weird places though.
23: Hungry ghosts - Stephen Blackmoore
Awesome. Just, awesome. Love the sharpie magic, and even though I know jack poo poo about aztec lore, the book has some crazy poo poo happen while explaining it all without making it feel like an infodump.
24: Idle Ingredients - Matt Wallace
I love this series, even though book 1 is why I can't eat chicken mcnuggets anymore.
25: Miniatures - John Scalzi
Sucked. Just, wasn't that great.
26: The Galactic Peace Commitee
Pretty fun read. Basically, what happens when the elders of the universe decide to bust a gently caress it and "promote" humanity into being in charge of the galactic UN.
27: Wizard Home Security - Victor Gishle
Decent short story but I'm a bigger fan of some of his other works.
27.5: Heroes Reborn - Can't recall the author.
Horrible book. Got it from some recommendation somewhere, and it just sucked. Made it 81% of the way through before deciding to just delete it after the lead guy who we are supposed to somehow care about ends up loving a hobgoblin. Only including it because it was so goddamn long and a trudge to get that far.
28: Empire's End - Chuck Wendig
Sucked. Turns out the whole trilogy was the origin story of the fat dude from Heroes who shows up in TFA.
29: Shapeless - Glenn Bullion
Good story, not connected to his Damned series, but was a little weird. Good read though. About a guy who's a shapeshifter.
30: Near Earth Object 2017AP - John Paul Cater
Bad book. It's like a badly fanfic of astronomers. The only thing missing is the giant breasted hot chick who totally digs science guys.
31: Splits - Chuck Grossart
Decent book about the end of the world. Not zombies or anything like that. Interesting premise though.

Decent book about the end of the world. Not zombies or anything like that. Interesting premise though.

Goddamn I haven't updated in a while.

32: Six Bullets - Jeremy Bates
Novella about the aftermath of an asteroid strike. Not really that great.
33: Will Save Galaxy For Food - Yahtzee Croshaw
Decent read, little slow to start, but it picks up.
34-37 Space Team by Barry J Hutchison
Pretty awesome, actually. The first book is a bit too try hard at the beginning, but it picks up, and the other 3 books are fairly great. The last not so much, but still, worth reading if you have KU.
38: No Hero - Tom Andry
Superheroish fiction. Private eye ex husband of a major Hero solves cases. Really liked it.
39: Desperate Times - Tom Andry
Sequel to No Hero. Pretty good. If you liked the first one, you'll like this one.
40: Hostile Territory - Tom Andry
Last of the Bob Moore series. Ends on a bit of a cliffhanger, and I haven't seen any heads up about a new book in the series yet :(
41: King Slayer - Honor Raconteur
Guy kills king, gets caught in neighboring country, has to tell Queen why, leads to adventures. Pretty good read.
42: Critical Failures 4 - Robert Bevan
Hilarious, I love this series. This was a re-read so I knew where book 5 kicked off.
43: Critical Failures 5 - Robert Bevan
Kicks off right after the end of 4, and is pretty great. A lot of side character adventure. If you like the series, it's all on KU.
44: Bound - Benedict Jacka
Newest Alex Verus book. Starts out right where the last one ended, and is actually fairly good. Some easily called plot situations, but overall, great addition to the series.
45-48 Jessica Christ Series
If you liked Lamb by Christopher Moore, you'll probably dig this series.
49: Rime - Tim Lebbon
Novella on kindle unlimited. Basically, what happens when you make first contact while on a generational sleeper ship, but have no communications with the rest of the ship? It gets weird. Good read though.
50: The Wrong Dead Guy - Richard Kadrey
Sequel to The Everything Box. Not as good as the first, but still pretty good.
51: Interesting Gods - Matthew Storm
Newest in the Interesting Times series. I really like it. It's got a fairly weird premise that works incredibly well. Author is a nice guy too.
52: Very Important Corpses - Simon Green
I don't think he uses the "Easiest thing in the world" macro in this book, which automatically makes it both amazing and good. Decent read, if kinda odd.
53: The Everything Box - Richard Kadrey
What happens when an Angel is tasked to destroy the remainder of Humanity after the flood, and then misplaces the doodad to do it? Well, read and find out. Great book.
54: The Spaceship Next Door - Gene Doucette
A UFO KANDS IN AMERICA! HOW SHOCKING! WHAT WILL HAPPEN? Well, nothing, for a long time, and people stop worrying about it. Then, huh, it moves. OH poo poo. (read it)
55: Glass Predator - Craig Schafer
I was kinda let down by parts of the book, but holy gently caress the setup for the finale of this series is gonna be batshit. If you are a Faust or a Harmony Black fan, grab it. Love this series.
56: Tombyards and Butterflies - Orlando A. Sanchez
No, I have no idea what the title means, and yes, it's said in the book, but mainly it's a good book and should be read if you are looking for a decent new urban fantasy to check out. poo poo gets weird, but in a good way.
57: Aye, Robot - Robert Kroese
Sequel to Starship Grifters. Pretty good too. I'm liking this series.
58: The Last Coven - Rick Gualtieri
Last of the Tome of Bill series, and damned good way to end it.
59: Everything has Teeth - Jeff Strand
Short story collection, but most are pretty good. Some kinda meh ones though.
60: Potty Mouth - Robert Bevan
Basically a free short story made to irritate Trump voters without specifically mentioning Trump himself. Pretty hilarious though.

There were a few more that I didn't bother to remember to write down that I borrowed off KU, so they aren't exactly stellar reads if I can forget em that easily. If I remember any good ones, I'll update the list.

60: Potty Mouth - Robert Bevan
Basically a free short story made to irritate Trump voters without specifically mentioning Trump himself. Pretty hilarious though.


Whoops, forgot to update for a while again. Alright, let's start in no particular order!
61: Divine Assistance - L G Estrella - Sort of a short story collection about Gods/Goddesses and things that happen. Worth the 3$ on kindle.
62: Deathform - Benjamin Allocco - Just.. meh. Space adventure where an alien artifact is opened and bad things happen. Not as great as I'd hoped.
63: The Kill Society - Richard Kadrey - Sandman Slim book 9. Not the greatest but pretty fun overall. Might be the weakest in the series so far though.
64: MoonBreaker - Simon Green - Decent, but I sort of called the ending about 10 pages into the book. Still, if you are a Drood fan it'll be worth the read.
65: The Man of Legends - Kenneth Johnson - I got it for free, and I'm pissed off I finished it. Took a great premise and just poo poo all over it. Horrible.
66: This Giant Leap - Edmund R. Schubert - Short story collection with some interesting ones.
67: Schoedinger's Gat - Robert Kroese - Interesting idea, somewhat good book but holy gently caress the info dumps are crazy.
68: Space Team Guns of Nana Joan - Barry Hutchison - Starts out kinda slow, and somewhat dumb (as is the entire series I guess), but it picks up a few chapters in and becomes a pretty good read. I'm loving this series.
69: Devil Inside - John Hartness - Latest Harker novel, and a pretty fun read.
70: Heart of Stone - Ben Galley - Pretty interesting book. Told from the perspective of a rock golem who's been made for war, and his POV is kind of interesting.
71: Fearless - Elliot James - Book 3 of the Pax Arcana series. Decent read.
72: The Perdition Score - Richard Kadrey - Book 8 of the Sandman Slim series. Had to reread because I was kinda completely lost at the start of book 9. Good read though.
73: Dr DOA - Simon Green - Book before MoonBreaker in the Drood series. Was a reread because it'd been about a year since I read the last book and I didn't want to read the new one and end up confused. Decent but kinda pointless.
74: All Systems Red - Martha Wells - Book about an insane AI/robot bodyguard. Actually pretty good. How can you go wrong when the main character refers to himself as "Murderbot"?
75: Stranger of Tempest - Tom Lloyd - Pretty good book. Book 1 in a new fantasy series. Nice to have a main character that's actually a kinda broken dude with ptsd and not a tremendous badass who never fails at anything.
75.9: Honor Under Moonlight - Short story set in the Tempset book universe. Pretty good but you need to have read the first book in the series to have any idea wtf is going on.

Been kinda slow on reading lately, and I know I've forgotten a few I've read on kindle unlimited, but I think I got the main ones listed that I liked, or hated enough to review.
