Sep. 25th, 2019 02:34 pmRecently read: Declare by Tim Powers. (c) 2001 Tim Powers, pub William Morrow 2013, ISBN 978-0-06-222138-4. Declare was a present from ![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
cjwatson, and I think rysmiel also spoke highly of it. Anyway, it works really well both as a spy novel and a supernatural thriller.
( detailed review )
Currently reading: The boy on the bridge by MR Carey. This is a sequel to The girl with all the gifts, and like its companion it's a zombie book which is on the edge of too gory for me but incredibly compellingly written. I'm not completely convinced by the autistic savant teenager Stephen Greaves, but I'm willing to suspend judgement about whether his characterization is more than just a cliché.
Up next: Likely Moonglow, a recent-ish Michael Chabon I have borrowed from the library.
