Which was splendid.

Next I read Children of the Nameless by Brandon Sanderson. A stand-alone freebie which seems to have been a commission from Wizards of the Coast LLC.

Most enjoyable, with a good resolution. There's clearly more going on, but the story is nicely self-contained.

Then I read Endless Night by Agatha Christie. Which was a bit of a disappointment, despite being one of her later novels.

And now I'm reading Tramp Royale by Robert A. Heinlein. A travelogue of his round-the world trip in the early 1950s.
