What I've been reading
I finished The Widow's House, the penultimate book in the Dagger and the Coin sequence. As I would imagine anyone who is reading these books has been anticipating since the beginning, Cithrin finally ( spoilers ) I look forward to the upcoming final book.
I read the first eleven issues of Thor: God of Thunder, collected as The God Butcher and Godbomb. I hadn't been keeping up with events in Asgard that didn't pertain to Loki and thus had absolutely new idea what was going on when I picked up the first issue of the new Thor featuring a female Thor and decided that I needed to backread. Both of these trades form one long story, which is actually reasonably dense and interesting. It eventually has ( minor spoilers )
I read the new Peter Grant book, Foxglove Summer. It mostly backburners That Thing That Happened at the End of the Last Book in favor of a standalone mystery about missing children, but it adds a few nice bits of worldbuilding to the series, and anyway I feel like the main reason to read these books is Peter's narrative voice.
