WWW Wednesday – 24 June 2026

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:

Green City Wars by Adrian Tchaikovsky (ebook)

After having such an incredible time reading one of Adrian Tchaikovsky’s other 2026 novels, Pretenders to the Throne of God, I just had to read his latest book Green City Wars.  An entertaining thriller that follows sentient, genetically enhanced animals who live in the shadow of a futuristic human society, Green City Wars is proving to be an amazing novel. I’m currently a quarter of the way through Green City Wars and I’m hoping to finish it off in the next week.

Warhammer 40,000: Brothers of the Snake by Dan Abnett (Audiobook)

I was in the mood for some Warhammer 40,000 fun this week, so I decided to check out the classic entry from Dan Abnett Brothers of the Snake. A compelling novel that follows a unique chapter of Space Marines, Brothers of the Snake is an interesting anthology book with multiple shorter stories following one particular squad. I am powering through this audiobook, and I should probably knock it off in the next couple of days.

What did you recently finish reading?

The Right to Remain by James Grippando (Audiobook)

I managed to quickly finish off the latest Jack Swyteck novel, The Right to Remain by James Grippando this week.  A compelling legal thriller that sees the protagonist forced to defend a client who refuses to talk to anyone, including his own lawyer, The Right to Remain was an excellent novel I had an amazing time getting through.

What do you think you’ll read next?

The Detective Matthew Reilly

The next book I’m hoping to read is the 2025 novel, The Detective by Matthew Reilly. A compelling crime fiction novel from one of Australia’s top authors, The Detective has been on my to-read list for a while.  I’m planning to prioritize reading The Detective now as Reilly has a sequel coming out later this year that I’m keen to check out.

The Yacht by Kayte Nunn (Trade Paperback)

I’ve started reading the intriguing thriller, The Yacht by Australian author Kayte Nunn.  An intense read that showcases the events leading up to the destruction of a giant superyacht hosting the troubled members of an elite family, The Yacht is so far proving to be a very entertaining read, and I’m already hooked on its story.  While I haven’t made too much progress on The Yacht yet, I’m hoping to knock it off in the next couple of days and I look forward to seeing how its cool narrative comes together.

Paradox by Douglas Preston and Aletheia Preston (Audiobook)

I’m absolutely powering through the audiobook version of the entertaining science fiction thriller, Paradox.  The sequel to Douglas Preston’s Extinction, which featured an outstanding story about killer neanderthal clones, Paradox has another over-the-top narrative to it, with aliens, religious murders and more, all coming into play.  I’m having an amazing time with Paradox, and it looks like I’ll be finishing it off in the next day or so.

What did you recently finish reading?

Sisters of the Lizard by Jackson Ford (Trade Paperback)

I managed to finish off the fun fantasy novel, Sisters of the Lizard by Jackson Ford this week.  The sequel to Ford’s 2025 release, The Bone RaidersSisters of the Lizard was another awesome read, loaded with entertaining characters and an intriguing adventure with giant, fire-breathing lizards.  A fantastic and exciting read.

Warhammer 40,000: Hive by Dan Abnett (Audiobook)

I also finally finished off the extensive new Dan Abnett Warhammer 40,000 novel, Hive. A vast political thriller, that showcases multiple perspectives of a gigantic underground hive city, Hive was an elaborate and addictive read, that relentlessly kept me hooked to the very end. One of my top Warhammer 40,000 novels of 2026.

LIT by Anna Woods

The next book I’m hoping to read is the compelling new novel LIT by Anna Woods. A gritty New Zealand psychological thriller, LIT has a very interesting plot behind it, when a woman finds herself seemingly haunted by visions of a missing friend. Set to be a tense and powerful novel, I’m looking forward to reading LIT soon.
