I figured now would be as good a time as any to ask people what were the highlights and lowlights of their reading in 2017.
My highlights were:
The Goddess Project by Bryan Wigmore
Three Parts Dead by Max Gladstone
Anansi Boys by Neil Gaiman
Three kinda similar books; a tad dark, a bit funny, full of mystery and metaphysics and not your standard fantasy setting. Either my tastes have changed or this is a big coincidence. Or both, I suppose.
My lowlight was:
The Aeronaut's Windlass by Jim Butcher
My sense of logical and cool and Butcher's suddenly went from in lockstep to a thousand miles apart and I'm kinda worried to read his next Dresden, when it finally arrives. The Name of the Wind very nearly makes it here too, except I'm intending to try reading a bit more... some point... maybe.
