Reading in Fantasy and Horror April 2015

[Contrarius]

I was recommended Chris Wooding[....]now starting Daniel Polansky's Low Town trilogy with The Straight Razor Edge.

I'll be interested to see what you think of these. These are two authors that I keep meaning to read.

I haven't read Polansky yet, but I've loved Wooding's Ketty Jay books so far. They might not be the deepest stuff out there, but if you're looking for an action-packed Steampunk tale, you can't go wrong with these.

Right at the end of April, I finished The Dagger's Path by Glenda Larke. This was a good sequel to The Lascar's Dagger. While I don't like these as much as I liked her Stormlord trilogy, they're still good.

Both authors do get a lot of love. If only we could add a couple more hours to the days!

I loved Polansky's Low Town trilogy. More often than I'd like to see, I get into a series a lot and then am unsatisfied with the ending. Not so with Low Town, it was magnificent start to finish.

Has anyone here read both the Low Town books and Charlie Huston's Joe Pitt books? The descriptions I've read of Low Town sound as though the atmosphere and attitude might be similar to Joe Pitt -- and I loved those.
