Re: What are you reading?

Following on from that, I then read "Bad Blood" (a "Double Dead" novella), by Chuck Wendig. Half the size of the first one, but still great.


Next up will be Blackbirds and Mockingbird, also by Wendig.

No matter what she does she can’t save Louis. But if she wants to stay alive, she’ll have to try.


It was actually a recent io9 review of Wendig's "Mockingbird" (the second Miriam Black novel) that got me into his books.

That lead me to a review of Blackbirds (the first Miriam Black novel).

... and that lead me to "Double Dead".
