naominovik's Throne of Jade (which was, as I expected, delightful and on which I will be expounding in a forthcoming post), and having also whipped through ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-syndicated.gif)
donna_andrews's Murder With Puffins, I have moved on to charge through mizkit's Thunderbird Falls!
Of which I must now say that I looked at the acknowledgements at the front of the book, and blinketyblinked, and gave a huge goofy grin. Because that Anna listed there as giving Kit geography help for Seattle? That's ME! *^_^* Not too far into the actual book yet, only about a hundred pages in and things are only just starting to pick up the pace, so no real commentary on the plot yet. But that acknowledgements page alone is going to make this book near and dear to my heart.
Our mail server keeled over during the night, but it turns out that it was only the power supply--andsolarbird has fixed that. So the mail flows at murkworks.net once more. Go Dara!
More later, for now I have to go to a meeting!

I will be feeling just the same way about Firestorm when it comes out, so I understand the squee. It's fun, isn't it? ;)

And in other news... Just finished Throne of Jade (Which I accidently first wrote out as Jade Throne!) last night! Hee! Next one comes out on the 30th, thankfully.
