Stacking The Shelves with Gray, Grann, Lebbon, Weis and Hickman for Mailbox Monday

Posted on 09:09 by Unknown
Stacking The Shelves is a weekly meme being hosted by Tynga over at Tynga's Reviews. Stacking The Shelves is all about sharing the books you've added to your shelves - physical and virtual, borrowed and bought. Mailbox Monday, meanwhile, is a similar meme being hosted by Kathy from BermudaOnion’s Weblog this month (check out the Mailbox Monday blog to see who's hosting next month).







I'm still muddling through with a borrowed e-reader to stay on top of those books that I have scheduled for various book tours until I can get my hands on one of the new Kobo Glo readers, so it was off to the used bookstore today for some paperback reads.











The Ancient by Muriel Gray

I remember being intrigued by this tale of monstrous horror on a supertanker at sea when it was released, but it seemed to disappear before I could snag a copy.



The Lost City of Z by David Grann

Not really sure what happened with this real-life adventure novel. It seems as if I waited forever for it to come out in paperback . . . and then missed it entirely.



The Nature of the Balance by Tim Lebbon

I'm familiar with his dark fantasy work, but have never dabbled in his horror, so this was a must-buy.



Journey into the Void by Margaret Weis & Tracy Hickman

Epic fantasy is just one of those genres I prefer to read in mass-market paperback, and now that I have the entire trilogy, I can get reading.





What's topping your shelves this week?
