Finished The Eyes of the Dragon by Stephen King.
It was a nice book. Kind of YA, but fun to read. Pretty much a typical story of good vs bad, where good characters are super good and bad characters are super bad, with very few gray in between. Worth a read if you want a standalone fantasy novel that’s quick to read.
Read The Kaiju Preservation Society by John Scalzi. My first Scalzi novel and I loved it. A very light and easy to read sci-fi, with Kaiju in them. Going to get other Scalzi novels, may start with Old Man’s War.
Finally got my order my Dresden Files comics / graphic novels. So read the first omnibus, which has the original Welcome to the Jungle and graphic adaptation of first two Dresden Files novels, Storm Front and Fool Mon.
Second omnibus has all original graphic novels novels though, but will get to them later.
Just started Mistborn by Brandon Sanderson. I have read it before, but it has been quite a while, so re-reading it before starting on the sequel series.
What about all of you? What have you been reading or listening to lately?

1964 Hugo Winner - Way Station
A man born in 1840, back in the Wisconsin boonies, is chosen to run an intragalactic stopover station for aliens moving about the Orion Arm. Earth is a new expansion, but we’re not invited to the alien fraternity. Yet. Oh, the guy only ages when he leaves his house (aliens converted it to receive travelers) so some are taking notice that the guy is 120+ years old and looks 30.
Has a more modern feel to it than most golden age sci-fi. Little slow up front, but it’s a short book.
