It’s time for WWW Wednesday! This blog hop is hosted by Sam over at A World Of Words. Link up with us by commenting on Sam’s post for this week, and just answer the three questions.
What have you recently finished reading?
I’m literally listening to the last half hour of A Mask of Shadows, the third Frey and McGray novel by Oscar de Muriel, as I write this post. To be honest, it’s nowhere near as good as the first two books in the series and I can see why those reviewers for whom it was the first Frey & McGray book said they wouldn’t read any others. I still plan on finishing the series, though.
I posted by my review of Unearthed by Amie Kaufman and Meagan Spooner last Friday. Read it here.
What are you currently reading
I am still reading Blackwing by Ed McDonald. I haven’t been making a lot of time for reading, which is entirely my own fault, but I am liking it, despite going slowly. Because I’ve been listening to the Frey & McGray books, and because Galharrow, the MC in this book, is a loveable grump like McGray, I am hearing his narration entirely in Andy Secombe’s grumpy Scottish McGray voice. This is not a bad thing.
What do you think you will read next?
The fourth Frey & McGray book, The Loch of the Dead, became available earlier than I expected, so I have that ready to go. I’m hoping it’s back up to the standard of the first two.
I also checked out the adult SFF section at the library for once (I usually make a beeline for the YA section) and picked out a couple of Mercedes Lackey titles. I think I am going to try Beauty and the Werewolf first. Though Joust has a dragon on the cover and that is also very tempting. So we’ll see what I end up with.
What are you reading this week?P.S. If you’re interested, head over to my writing blog, Letting the Voices Out, to read a snippet of my current WIP here.
I haven’t read any of these! I hope you enjoy them!

Are the Frey and McGray novels standalone stories? I’m intrigued by them, especially if it’s a series I could easily pick up and put back down without worrying about falling behind in a grand narrative. Great post!

They are! There’s some backstory and reference to events of previous books, but it’s usually covered in enough detail in each book you wouldn’t necessarily have to have read the previous ones. They are good fun! (Though don’t start with A Mask of Shadows.)
