Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

I really like the Temple of the White Rat. All the religions are interesting but that one I kinda wish we had in our world.

My DH turned me on to T. Kingfisher, but I'm so not surprised that Buffistas like her.

The Temple of the White Rat could do a lot of good in this world, I admit.

They're pretty great.
I decided to reread Swordheart, very enjoyable. I think I was wrong in thinking there was a biggish time gap in these stories, probably I was confused by the long time since the sorceror-smith created the swords. Maybe it was a matter of me feeling like I had to wait too long for the next one although objectively it can't have been that long a time.

Thrive to spite them
So I'm excited because I've read the first 2 books of The Expanse series--this is exciting because I read 2 books--in a row!! I haven't done that in so long (I've mostly been reading/re reading fanfic).
I'm waiting for the next one from the library and I was wondering if anyone had recommendations for sci fi series that would be along the same vein. I've read Old Man's War by John Scalzi and liked that but I'm kind of floundering on what to read next.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
Ten Thousand Doors of January is on sale at Amazon for $3.99, if you've been holding back.

askye, have you read A Memory Called Empire? If you like interstellar politics and unusual societies I recommend it.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
I'm lukewarm on Scalzi generally (love his blog and Twitter feed, meh about most of his books) but I really enjoyed the Interdependency series (first book is The Last Emperox).
