WWW Wednesday – 19 November 2025

WWW Wednesday is a weekly post 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:

Tyrant of Rome by Simon Scarrow (Trade Paperback)

I’ve just started reading the exciting new Eagles of the Empire novel, Tyrant of Rome. An intriguing new historical fiction novel from the always impressive Simon Scarrow, Tyrant of Rome sees the series’ two soldier protagonists fight on a new battlefield when they are given control of law and order in ancient Rome. Historical action and intrigue at it’s very best, Tyrant of Rome is proving to be an amazing read, and I’ve already made a fair bit of progress on this novel. I’m hoping to finish Tyrant of Rome off over the weekend and I cannot wait to see how the entire book comes together.

The Strength of the Few by James Islington (Audiobook)

I’ve also started listening to the epic fantasy novel, The Strength of the Few by James Islington. The sequel to Islington’s deeply impressive The Will of the Many, The Strength of the Few features a deeply complex plot, as three separate versions of the protagonist from the first book simultaneously journey through alternate worlds. While this is a pretty massive book, I am making some good progress with the audiobook format, and I cannot wait to dive even deeper into this intricate and captivating novel.

What did you recently finish reading?

Seven Recipes for Revolution by Ryan Rose (ebook)

I managed to finish off the 2025 fantasy debut, Seven Recipes for Revolution by Ryan Rose this week. An exciting and compelling novel full of cookery-based magic, Seven Recipes for Revolution was a really excellent read and I had an amazing time with it.

Cold War by Jonathan Maberry (Audiobook)

I also managed to finish of the dark and twisted science fiction audiobook, Cold War by Jonathan Maberry. The compelling sequel to last year’s NecroTek, Cold War was a really impressive novel, especially on audiobook, and loved where it’s shocking and exciting story went. One of the better novels and audiobooks of 2025, I’m hoping to have a review for Cold War written up soon.

What do you think you’ll read next?

Hotel Lucky Seven by Kotaro Isaka

The next book that I am hoping to read is the amazing Japanese thriller, Hotel Lucky Seven by Kotaro Isaka. A follow-up to some of his previous novels, including Bullet Train and Three AssassinsHotel Lucky Seven sees the unlucky protagonist of Bullet Train find himself trapped in hotel with several other deadly assassins. Based on the author’s previous books, Hotel Lucky Seven is going to be a ton of fun, and I cannot wait to check it out.
