I've finally started reading Endless Blue by Wen Spencer and it is off to a really good start. Complex characters, an interesting world, and a fast-paced, engaging story.  I know, I know, I should have gotten to it long ago but I've been busy and it got buried on my nightstand.  If you aren't  familiar with Wen you should definitely give her a read.  The hard question is which to start with, Tinker (Pittsburgh transits to faerie, adventure ensues) or Alien Taste (a foundling raised by wolves and working for a private investigator gets involved in investigating a bizarre murder, adventure ensues).  If Endless Blue continues the way it has started, it will be up there with Wen's best.

Life's way too busy, but good.  it was great to have the kids home for Thanksgiving.  We had our traditional Thanksgiving - Peking Duck with all the trimmings, playing games together, and the kids' friends coming over.  The food at the 100th Bomb Group was really good and dancing was lots of fun.  We bought 4 bags full of cool stuff at the What On Earth sale including prizes for the rapier tourneys at the January Event, now all I need to do is plan the tournaments.  Between work, getting ready for the holidays, and the rest of life there isn't much spare time.  With the snow coming down and Xmas songs on the radio it is feeling very Christmasy.

And now WKSU is playing a Girlyman  song.  Very nice.
