The Worlds of Old Man’s War Series – John Scalzi
So the other day I finished the first book in my Other World’s Reading Challenge. The world that I visited or should I say “revisited” was the world that John Scalzi has created in his “Old Man’s War” series. The book that I read was The Human Division. It is book five in the series.

The Sinister Pig – Tony Hillerman – Another Visit with an Old Favorite
Another The Sinister Pig – Tony Hillerman
So I have read almost all of the books in the Jim Chee – Joe Leaphorn series. However, the last Tony Hillerman book I read was in 2000, when I read Hunting Badger (Book #14)!The Sinister Pig (Book #16) in the series has probably been on my bookshelves unread for about 5 years or more. Since one of my reading challenges for 2018 is to read 25 books that are on my TBR shelves and specifically books from series that I have not read for years, choosing The Sinister Pig was a no-brainer.
The Shadow District Begins a New Series from Arnaldur Indridason
The Shadow District – Reykjavik Wartime Mystery #1
The Shadow District by Arnaldur Indridason is book one in his new Reykjavik Wartime Mystery series.
Indridason is the author of the excellent Detective Erlender series. However, I must admit that while I have loved the series books I have read, I have fallen behind in the series. As a result, I often forget about the series. Can out say once again “too many books too little time”.
