AKA Showcase Sunday
I like to think I was pretty good at Nine Worlds and didn’t come home with too many books. Just a couple of freebies (I even gave away one of my goodie bag books). I did buy the Discworld Ankh-Morpork board game though. It’s one I’ve oohed and ahhed over a few times in the past, so when I discovered I hadn’t spent all my money in the hotel bar, I had to go get it. This month’s purchases have all been from my affiliate payment vouchers; Air was mentioned several times at Nine Worlds so I wanted to pick up a copy. The second book was because I had to make my order up to a tenner ;).
Gutenberg’s Apprentice by Alix Christie (Headline)
Half-Blood by Jennifer L. Armentrout (Hodder)
The Informant by Susan Wilkins (Pan Macmillan)
Assail by Ian C. Esslemont (Transworld)
Freebies:
Dreams and Shadows by C. Robert Cargill
Red Rising by Pierce Brown
Bought:
Air by Geoff Ryman
Marie Antoinette, Serial Killer by Katie Alender
The Tarot Reader by Laura Lam
Won:

Ah yes, the old "I need to round my order up so I must purchase another book".

I have yet to check out your Nine Worlds post, wish I was there!
I am super excited for Red Rising, have to get to it soon. I have had it for a while now so it's about time, too.
Happy reading!
I haven't read any of these, do love pics of book post though. Been so very long since I had a big drop through the letterbox like that, jealous!

I don't do these posts every week so this is a month's worth including a con. I haven't had that many books through in the post lately either. Think it's been a quiet period, but honesly don't really need them 🙂
