FF: Killing Frost???

This weekend I’m off to MiHiCon, where I’m author GOH, along with Eric Flint.  Complicating preparations is learning that we’re supposed to get a killing frost this weekend, so I had to go and save any produce I could.  This included about twenty more pomegranates!

Do Guinea Pigs Have Fairy Tails?

For those of you just discovering this feature, the Friday Fragments lists what I’ve read over the past week.  Most of the time I don’t include details of either short fiction (unless part of a book-length collection) or magazines.

The Fragments are not meant to be a recommendation list.  If you’re interested in a not-at-all-inclusive recommendation list, you can look on my website under Neat Stuff.

Once again, this is not a book review column.  It’s just a list with, maybe, a bit of description or a few opinions tossed in.

Recently Completed:

The Compleat Enchanter by L. Sprague de Camp and Fletcher Pratt.  I liked more for the settings than for the humor, which didn’t strike me as very funny.

Fairy Tail, manga, volumes 10 and 11 by Hiro Mashima.

Champagne for One by Rex Stout.  Audiobook.

Murder By the Book by Rex Stout.  Audiobook.

In Progress:

Fairy Tail, manga, volume 12, by Hiro Mashima.

Another Fine Myth by Rober Asprin.  Continuing my research for a panel this weekend.  I loved this series years ago.  Will it hold up?

Fer-de-lance by Rex Stout.  Audiobook.  One of the longer ones…

Various items as I prepare for my panels.
