Episode 1-14: Do The Right Thing

Jackrabbit Smile, A Second Chance, The 17th Suspect by Joe R. Lansdale, Jodi Taylor, James Patterson

Episode 1-14: Do The Right Thing Wherein I review: 46. Jackrabbit Smile (Hap and Leonard #13) by Joe R. Lansdale 47. A Second Chance (St. Mary’s Chronciles #3) by Jodi Taylor 48. The 17th Suspect (Women’s Murder Club #17) by James Patterson I ruminate on the good guys and how racism works when it’s about racism.  The time travel, she getting worse, but I’m holding on for the writing and characters. And how Patterson and Pietro are clearly just done with the Women’s Murder Club and have written their equivalent of Stephen King’s Lamp Monster.

Episode 1-12: I See Your True Colors Shining Through

Warbreaker, The Stainless Steel Rat Goes to Hell by Brandon Sanderson, Harry Harrison

Episode 1-12: I See Your True Colors Shining Through Wherein I review: 39. Warbreaker by Brandon Sanderson 40. The Stainless Steel Rat Goes to Hell (Stainless Steel Rat #9) by Harry Harrison What began as my least favorite Cosmere book quickly climbed back up in my esteem.  It’s the magics I didn’t care much for it this one, but the characters grew on me.  And the Stainless Steel Rat was less delightful as he multiverse hops.

The Kind Worth Killing by Peter Swanson I’m all for murder mysteries, but damn, sometimes people just be killing the fuck out of each other with no remorse.  It’s twisty and turny, and for Dan Chaon’s bitterly Maury Povich levels of trauma.  If you dig Paula Hawkins and Ruth Ware, the Swanson is for you.  The Chaon might be for everyone.  But it’s a bit trippy.  And […]

Episode 1-09: Rats! Foiled Again!

The Stainless Steel Rat, The Midnight Palace, The Stainless Steel Rat's Revenge, The Watcher in the Shadows, The Stainless Steel Rat Saves the World, Elantris by Carlos Ruiz Zafon, Harry Harrison, Brandon Sanderson

by Leave a Comment

In this episode, I further dive into the Stainless Steel Rat space opera, where a slick space criminal experiences 1970’s style hijinks.  I finish up the YA books written by the author of the Cemetery of Forgotten Books author – all of them involving kids fighting some kind of devilish dealing evil power.  And I leap back to the beginning to dip my toes in the Cosmere and ponder how Avengers: Infinity War shit’s gonna get when he finally merges all his shardfolk.
