Weekly post was a bit irregular last few weeks, but we are back to Tuesday now.
Got back to reading, read a bit of Streams of Silver by R. A. Salvatore, also read a few hundred pages of different web novels.
What about all of you? What have you been reading or listening to lately?

Three authors I hadn’t read before:
First part of a tetralogy; I liked it so much that I’m keenly waiting on an opportunity to read the 2nd book, and the rest of course. This goes under Fantasy but imo its more alternate history with a dash of SciFi: the tower of Babel exists; it’s huge and inhabited on levels each about the size of a small town. Technologically situated in +/- 1900, steampower and wildly sparking electricity. I love how the author keeps up a magical and mysterious athmosphere while everything remains realistic (just unlikely); both the science and the plot.
A woman in the Atlanta Police D. in 1974. Sexism & misogyny & sisterhood. A nice plot as well. I enjoyed it. Gritty right until the end, when everything suddenly turned roses, peace & happiness. Blergh!
A young and unlikely policeman becomes part of a London art theft task force in the 1980s. I only started it; it’s a mild, cultured and easy read with just enough suspense to keep you going, but I can’t give any judgement so far.
