Just finished and enjoyed The Book of Koli by M. R. Carey. Far future post-apocalypse, set in what used to be Britain. Start of a trilogy, next one out in Sept. Very good. Am reading Consolation Songs and liking most of them. Savage Season by Joe Lansdale - Hap and Leonard (1). A violent romp, with great and vivid turns of phrase. Enjoyable and I plan to read more. The Calculating Stars by Mary Robinette Kowal - via audiobook. A good read. Passage by Justin Cronin, also via audiobook. Much longer book the TV series was adapted from. A vampire apocalypse (yes, I like apocafic in general) with underlying Christian spiritual paranormal notions. Mostly good, and gripping, except for the religious themes. And loads of fanfic, mostly Stargate Atlantis.
I have the Kowal downloaded from Tor's free book giveaway and I mean to start it sooner or later. The problem with free books is I rarely feel any investment in getting started with them.
