Kings of wyld hands down. Only book ive read on this list but I loved it. Author even liked my review on GR, never happend before.
It’s also the only novel I’ve read off the list. It was a lot of fun, that’s why I nominated it!
I’ll try to check out a few of the others when I get a chance, though.
The two novels on the list that I have read–Age of Assassins and The Guns Above–are both excellent.
I saw your reviews of each of those, but haven’t read them yet because I thought they might be a bit YA for me.
I’d promised myself I wouldn’t buy any more audiobooks until I cleared out the backlog of ones I’d bought on sale, but I might have to go ahead and grab these ones.
Age of Assassins is a little YA-y. The Guns Above isn’t YA-y at all.
I’ll put Guns Above higher in my queue, then.
