More books

Quite a while since the last update...
The change into spring always make me lethargic, besides I'm really in need for some holidays, forgive my lack of comments on your entries, please...

These days, although reading quite a lot, I went for light books, old worlds I love and feel at home in:

Diane Duane's The Wounded Sky (Star Trek O.S.)

and four anthologies of Darkover short stories (in Italian) :

L'alba di Darkover

I signori di Darkover

Darkover e l'impero

Le torri di Darkover 

Plus Lisa Tuttle's  fantasy-thriller   Il codice delle fate (The Mysteries) a nice work, that somehow left me oddly un-satisfied (and I cannot pinpoint why ) and  Conor Kostick's Epic (which I loved).
Epic is a novel set on a colony planet where almost everything  (jobs, access to education, sharing of resources) is allotted according to the settlers' ranking in a planet-wide MMORPG.

Last, I finished today the first of Candace Robb's new Medieval crime series La taverna delle ombre (A Trust Betrayed), like Robb's Owen Archer  series, this one is a bit heavy on the political intrigue, but  (just like the first one) it is well written and well researched. I just hope that books like this one can, in time, help get rid of some of the widespread misconception about the Middle Ages (one can dream, right?)  

So at the moment the count is:

13 books       4634 pages
