Finished Carl's Doomsday Scenario by Matt Dinniman, book 2 of Dungeon Crawler Carl.

spoiler for book 2I thought Bea will show up in the second book, though it looks like she is actually dead now. Carl has a point if she was still alive some show will have found her by now.

It looks like they are going to do something in future books and split up Carl and Donut. Not a fan of this in most books, so let's see how it goes.

Started Sword of Destiny by Andrzej Sapkowski. Book 2 of The Witcher series. This is the second short story collection, after which comes the 5 book novel series. I read the series quite a while ago, but never finished all the novels, so re-reading the earlier books to finally complete the series.

What about all of you? What have you all been reading or listening to lately?

"Blood Of Victory" by Alan Furst. Not my favorite Furst novel, but the one I decided to reread. I'm sticking with it because he is fantastic at creating an atmosphere. Every hotel, nightclub, and train car seems authentic.

It's set in 1939. Britain is holding on by a thread, and the Nazis are enjoying life in Paris. A Russian writer has resident alien status in France, and is being recruited by various governments to act as an agent. "Oh, you met her? She'd recruit God."
