Welcome to Litsy!

Meh.

I‘m listening to Smash Hit by Sarah Richardson on audible. But it‘s not in the database.

A fun read:

I try to read classics periodically and I‘d never read this. I tried to be excited. It was fine.

This volume is just as good as the first one. In this one, Duncan is still fighting monsters, very famous ones. While he is doing that, Merlin is helping the evil skeleton to find the items needed to destroy the while. Poor Galahad is changed and not for the better. Graphics are awesome and great story. Very bloody and violent. Looking forward to reading the rest in the series.

Recent acquisition for our personal library.

1. My degrees are in Classics, so I have (or had, super rusty now) Latin and Greek. I'd love to learn Old English so I could read...

2. ... Beowulf in the original. I love the Seamus Haney translation.

Random book from our home library:

📖 Once & Future volume 2 by Kieron Gillen, Dan Mora, Tamra Bonvillain

Well, this was stirring stuff! It makes some of Uhtred of Bebbanburg's escapades look like a church fête!
There's no getting away from its being a matter of masculine heroics in the extreme; part of me wanted to find it all a bit ridiculous on that account. However, I was audio-drawing and more than once I realised my pen had been hovering motionless over the paper for some minutes. Audio is *definitely* the way to go with this.
