Hoo-! I was up MUCH later than intended last night, polishing off the last of book 6, which I read right on the heels of #5. Good reading, there. When I say gripping, I mean it. The last third especially&#8230;
The Skull of the World follows Isabeau&#8217;s ultimate quest in <a href='http://www.thewordofgit.com/readingbackwards/2009/11/the-skull-of-the-world-and-the-fathomless-caves/'>[...]</a>]]></description>

Do not be fooled by that innocuous cover in the Amazon preview. DO NOT, I SAY. That is a redesign, to appeal to modern readers. Why? Because this would never pass muster today:

I&#8217;m not sure it passed muster then, either. My edition is more orangey, but you get the point. <a href='http://www.thewordofgit.com/readingbackwards/2009/11/love-only-once/'>[...]</a>]]></description>

I got an email alert announcing the release of this book, and was able to attend Naomi Novik&#8217;s very first book signing EVARR. She was excited, we were excited, and the space at the Greenwich Village B&#38;N was standing room only. How cool was that?!
She read an as-yet-unpublished short story <a href='http://www.thewordofgit.com/readingbackwards/2008/08/victory-of-eagles/'>[...]</a>]]></description>

I need a Piratical Adventures category. This is the way books should be, in my opinion. Swashbuckling, evil kings, handsome rogue princes, intelligent heroines, great humor, compelling love. A little bit of everything. Needless to say: It&#8217;s a new favorite.

Another supermarket find, I read the back and <a href='http://www.thewordofgit.com/readingbackwards/2006/01/the-prince-of-venya/'>[...]</a>]]></description>
