Roy Adams reviewed And the Rest is History by Jodi Taylor (The Chronicles of St Mary's #8)
Roy Adams reviewed The Folded Sky by Elizabeth Bear (White Space, #3)
Excellent continuation of White Space series
5 stars
(Read this early as an ebook ARC from Goodreads giveaway.) An excellent continuation of the White Space series. Sunya and her research are the main contributors to the story progression but many other characters have important roles and contributions. Also, a little discussion about functioning societies and the obligations they entail.

Roy Adams reviewed Night Watch by Terry Pratchett
Excellent story and character development
5 stars
Excellent story all round. Vimes develops even more as a character and we get history of the Watch and the city. Along with a good exposition about how the many parts of a society work together despite the deprecations of self-interested fools. I needed that reminder amidst the chaos and deliberate pain of this Trump administration in the US.
