WWW Wednesday – 31 January 2024

WWW Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Taking on a World of Words, where bloggers share the books that they’ve recently finished, what they are currently reading and what books they are planning to read next. Essentially you have to answer three questions (the Three Ws):

What are you currently reading?
What did you recently finish reading?
What do you think you’ll read next?

So, let’s get to it.

What are you currently reading:

Three-Inch Teeth by C. J. Box (ebook)

Three-Inch Teeth Cover

I have started reading an early copy of the new novel from C. J. Box, Three-Inch Teeth, this week.  Three-Inch Teeth is the latest novel in Box’s long-running Joe Pickett thriller series, and this new entry sees the series’ game warden protagonist go up against a killer bear and old-enemies from the past bent on revenge.  This is my first time reading one of Box’s books, and I am really enjoying its intense and exciting story.  I should finish Three-Inch Teeth off in the next day or so and I cannot wait to see how Box brings his awesome scenario together.

Warhammer 40,000: Brutal Kunnin by Mike Brooks (Audiobook)

Brutal Kunnin Cover

I just started listening to another Warhammer 40,000 audiobook with Brutal Kunnin.  Written by Mike Brooks, whose Warhammer 40,000 novels Warboss and The Lion: Son the Forest, were pretty damn fun, Brutal Kunnin is an entertaining novel about rival ork warbands invading a planet.  I haven’t made a lot of progress on Brutal Kunnin yet, but it is so far proving to be a funny and compelling read, as the fractious orks start their hilarious and brutal invasion.

What did you recently finish reading?

The Murder Inn by James Patterson and Candice Fox (Trade Paperback)

The Murder Inn Cover

I absolutely powered through the excellent crime fiction book, The Murder Inn by the team of James Patterson and Candice Fox this week.  An outstanding novel with a wildly exciting plot, The Murder Inn was a great read that I cannot recommend enough.

Warhammer 40,000: Witchbringer by Steven B. Fischer (Audiobook)

Warhammer 40,000 - Witchbringer Cover

I finally managed to finish off the fantastic Warhammer 40,000 audiobook Witchbringer by Steven B. Fischer this week.  An elaborate and wonderful addition to this cool franchise, Witchbringer was a pretty epic read that comes highly recommended.

The Ghost Orchid by Jonathan Kellerman (Trade Paperback)

The Ghost Orchid Cover (2)

I managed to also quickly read the new Jonathan Kellerman book, The Ghost Orchid over the weekend.  Following Kellerman’s long-running protagonists as they investigate another complex murder, The Ghost Orchid was very awesome and proved to be an excellent addition to an already great series.

The Holy Terrors by Simon R. Green (ebook)

The Holy Terrors Cover

A fantastic and quick horror-tinged thriller book about reality tv stars being killed off in a haunted town hall.

What do you think you’ll read next?

The Tainted Cup by Robert Jackson Bennett

The Tainted Cup Cover

Once I get through my current books, I am going to jump onto one of my most anticipated fantasy novels of 2024, The Tainted Cup by Robert Jackson Bennett.  Featuring two unique investigators as they dive into a unique magical crime, The Tainted Cup sounds pretty damn exceptional and it sets up a great new series from one of fantasy’s most compelling authors.

Warhammer: The Old World: Lords of the Lance by Graham McNeill

Lords of the Lance Cover

I am still in a major Warhammer mood, so once I get through Brutal Kunnin, I am hoping to start listening to Lords of the Lance by Graham McNeill.  The first book set back in the Old World in years, Lords of the Lance will be a great fantasy novel that focuses on the chivalrous knights of Bretonnia.  I love the Old World setting, and I am so happy to see the Warhammer franchise return there again.  Lords of the Lance sounds particularly cool, and I cannot wait to see what great story McNeill, who has previously impressed me with novels like Storm of Iron, will come up with.
