It's just been one of those months. Almost nothing seems to keep my interest.

I'm more than 70% through Master and Commander by Patrick O'Brian (stuck);
I'm more than 60% through The Throne of the Crescent Moon by Saladin Ahmed (stuck);
I should be reading The Lies of Locke Lamora by Scott Lynch (in a read-along, but I'm *really* not excited about the book).

Instead I'm enjoying Jane Carver of Waar by Nathan Long. The story of a hard-riding biker girl, who accidentally kills a drunk pawing her bottom. Running from the law, she ends up in a cave with a strange instrument that transports her to another world, where she discovers she has super strength and super jumping ability is this lower gravity world (sound familiar) An amazingly fun, pulp fiction story that's a take on the Edgar Rice Burroughs Mars stories.

An interview with the author on Black Gate:
