The Last book(s) I bought – Perilous Alliance M.D. Cooper

I’ve been meaning to dip into the M.D. Cooper universe for some time. I know there are a LOT of books in the collections (over 160 if I recall correctly). This collection, the Perilous Alliance, was only 99 cents so I thought, why not.
Last Book I bought – Neal Stephenson – Quicksilver

Yes, I’ve read Snowcrash and a couple of other books by Neal Stephenson. Somehow, this one passed under my radar. I had a book credit, so I thought I’d pick it up.
Latest book I bought
I’ve been a Scott Sigler Junkie since the first episode of Earthcore dropped on the Dragon Page oh so many years ago. I’m slow, but finally have the ebook for the sequel.

Buying books and reading books are two separate hobbies, let’s be real.
I’ve always wanted to dip my toe into the Wild Cards world, and the first book was on sale for $2.99. The rest are rather expensive and I refuse to pay $14.99 for an ebook. But if G.R.R. Martin is involved with this series, I’m curious.
I bought 2 books today.

I’ve been a fan of Nnedi Okorafor for some time, even if I forget how to spell her name. I saw she had a YA series and decided to pick up the first two books in the series as they were only $1.99 each and the 2rd book came out today. What better time to get into a new series?
Jade City – Fonda Lee

One of the things I’m going to do this year is post the books I buy/read. I’ll give a little insight as to where I heard about it and why I bought it.
Today’s book, the first of 2022, is from Orbit Books: Jade City by Fonda Lee. I heard about this from Vlog Brothers 2000th episode and decided to check it out. It was only $4.99 so I thought I’d give it a whirl. Yes, I’ve got others books to read first, but we’ll get to this one soon enough. It’s a World Fantasy award winner, so I’m guessing it may be a good one to day.
