Dick Wybrow – The Unseen Library

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:

We Chase Shadows by Richard Osman (Audiobook)

I’ve started listening to the highly entertaining murder mystery, We Chase Shadows by Richard Osman this week. One of my most anticipated novels for the second half of 2026, We Chase Shadows is the sequel to Osman’s previous exceptional novel, We Solve Murders and follows some of Osman’s more unique protagonists attempt to uncover another international mystery. This novel is so far proving to be pretty amazing, featuring a compelling case and Osman’s always entertaining humour, which is so much fun to get through. I cannot wait to see where Osman takes this incredible story and I am hoping to finish off We Chase Shadows in the next week or so.

What did you recently finish reading?

The Facilite Con by Dick Wybrow (ebook)

An entertaining novel that saw an unusual crew attempt to pull off a deadly heist, this was a fun read that I had a blast with.

Settle Down by Jeremy Robinson (Audiobook)

Jeremy Robinson follows up his first epic novel of 2026, 30Seven, in a big way with his latest science fiction adventure Settle Down. A dark and powerful read with a great hook, Settle Down was so damn good, and I cannot recommend it enough.

King’s Ransom by Matthew Reilly (Trade Paperback)

I was lucky enough to get my hands on King’s Ransom by Matthew Reilly this week, and I honestly started reading it right away. The sequel to Reilly’s previous novel, The Detective, King’s Ransom was an extremely entertaining thriller with a highly over-the-top plot that I honestly could not put down. One of the most addictive, if crazy, thrillers of 2026, King’s Ransom was just amazing and I’m hoping to review it soon.

What do you think you’ll read next?

Scion by James Islington

The next book I am hoping to start reading is the science fiction thriller, Scion by Australian author James Islington. A futuristic thriller that sees an enhanced assassin try to protect her target rather than kill him, Scion sounds like an incredible read, and I am very curious to try out my first science fiction read from Islington.

That’s it for this week; check back in next Wednesday to see what progress I’ve made on my reading and what books I’ll be looking at next.

The Facilite Con by Dick Wybrow (ebook)

I was in the mood for something a little unusual this week so I decided to check out the fun science fiction heist novel, The Facilite Con. An entertaining novel from Dick Wybrow, The Facilite Con sees an unusual crew attempt to pull off a deadly heist. I’m having a good amount of fun with this book so far, and I’m currently halfway through it. I’m hoping to knock it off in the next day or two and I’m curious to see where this book goes.

Settle Down by Jeremy Robinson (Audiobook)

After deeply enjoying Jeremy Robinson’s other epic 2026 novel, 30Seven, I was very eager to read his next novel Settle Down. A dark and powerful read with a great hook, Settle Down follows the survivors of a plane crash who are forced to contend with a brutal alien invasion that took place while they were trapped on a desert island. I have been powering through the audiobook version of Settle Down this week, and I am nearly at the end. I will probably knock Settle Down off very soon, and I cannot wait to see how this deeply compelling story comes to an end.

Five Voices by Tamara Moss (ebook)

I had an amazing time getting through the cool Australian young adult murder mystery Five Voices by Tamara Moss recent. Featuring an intriguing narrative about a group of podcasters caught up in the murder of one of their own, Five Voices was extremely good and really worth checking out.

Amazon

The Infinite State by Richard Swan (Audiobook)

I managed to finish off the exceptional audiobook The Infinite State by Richard Swan this week. A captivating science fiction novel that sees several protagonists attempt to survive the tyrannies of a fascist space empire, including by buying their own planet, The Infinite State was an incredible book, and one I’m hoping to review soon.

Amazon

The Daughter’s War by Christopher Buehlman (Hardcover)

I finally got the chance to read the dark fantasy novel The Daughter’s War by Christopher Buehlman this week. A prequel to Buehlman’s impressive novel The Blacktongue Thief, The Daughter’s War was a brutal novel that saw a protagonist attempt to survive a war against a ravenous goblin horde. This ended up being an amazing read and I’m now ready to dive into the next book in the series, The Thrice-Bound Fool, when it comes out later this year.
