Book 10 is "Angelmaker" by Nick Harkaway.

#currentlyreading #bookstodon #nickharkaway #Angelmaker
The cover of the book. A complicated loop of golden bees flies around an old fashioned circular crank handle, and becomes the title of the book. The shadow of clockwork gears lurk behind the image.

The cover of the book. A grainy illustration of a man with a staff and a hat in a graveyard, in front of a large tomb. Trees with bare branches in the background.

Book 8 is "Ninth House" by Leigh Bardugo.

I should really have read something else first and left this for number nine...

The cover of the book. A prismatic snake winds its way through and around the words of the title and author.

Book 7 is "Labyrinth's Heart" by M.A. Carrick, the third Rook & Rose book.

#currentlyreading #bookstodon #macarrick #rookandrose #labyrinthsheart
The cover of the book. A face behind an intricate golden mask made up of threads of knot work not unlike Celtic braiding. Wings stick out over the ears, there are two swords worked into the design above the brow, roses between the swords and wings, and purple feathers erupt behind and above the head.

The cover of the book. A stag with great antlers is entwined by the branches of a fallen tree, a giant moon large is the sky behind its head.

#currentlyreading #bookstodon #macarrick #rookandrose #theliarsknot
The cover of the book. A dark skinned face wearing a mask of red and gold, sweeping wings out to each side and something spider-like to the central part rising above the eyes.

Book 4 was a double bill reversible book - "Elsecaller" by Brandon Sanderson and Dan Wells, and "King Lopen the First of Alethkar" by Brandon Sanderson and Isaac Stewart, both part of the Storm light Archive.

Started and finished today, 20th January […]

[Original post on mastodon.online]
The first cover of the book. A small sail boat is dwarfed by an enormous storm of red clouds and red lightning. There is nothing else in sight on the dark ocean. The second cover of the book. An aristocratically dressed man with a sock puppet on his left hand is taking to a feed up looking bald man leaning on a spear. Outside the tent a sunny day can be seen.

Book 3 is "The Mask of Mirrors", by M.A. Carrick. The first Rook & Rose book.

#currentlyreading #bookstodon #macarrick #rookandrose #themaskofmirrors
The cover of the book. An exquisite and detailed face mask covering the eyes and above. It's a mix of blue feathers and gold wings. A small sword or dagger in the same style is suspended directly above the middle, above the level of the top of the head.

Book 2 is "The Will of the Many" by James Islington, first in the Hierarchy series.

#currentlyreading #bookstodon #jamesislington #hierarchy #thewillofthemany
The cover of the book. Very stylised line drawing: four classical looking pillars, each with a different style of cap, foot, and column - all four are shattering in the middle.

The cover of the book. A woman in fantasy garb, including a hooded cape and belt pouches, is standing in front of a lion. Her hand is glowing with light or smoke, clearly magical.

#currentlyreading #bookstodon #genevievecogman #thescarletrevolution #elusive
The cover of the book. Mont-Saint-Michel in silhouette against a blue sky and water, with a fork of lightning arcing towards it. Bats flit away from it into the sky.

Book 77 is "Tales From the Folly" but Ben Aaronovitch, a Rivers of London short story collection.

#currentlyreading #bookstodon #BenAaronovitch #riversoflondon #talesfromthefolly
The cover of the book. A number of London landmarks in a patch of red that might be invoking the rivers and maps that normally grace the covers of Rivers of London books. The Houses of Parliament, the London Eye, Tower Bridge, the Tower of London, and the Gherkin skyscraper.
