Re-reading the Star Trek Voyager book "The Final Fury" by Dafydd Ab Hugh. Exciting book with villains who makes the Borg look like a bunch of well-behaved schoolkids.
 
Finished TNG: Indistinguishable From Magic a couple of days ago. This afternoon, I started reading the Dresden Files book Changes.
 
I'm having some problems with my arms that are making holding a paperback book open painfull, so for the time being I'm down to reading just Nook stuff. I can prop it up at an angle and don't have to use my arms other than hitting the button to change the page. So that means I'm just reading The Dresden Files: Summer Knight, The Time Machine (I should be done with this one very soon), and ST: Rough Beasts of Empire.
 
Thanks! Glad you liked the book. That was a nice review.

You're welcome.

True confession: I was halfway through writing the book when I realized that Hodges wasn't involved at all! That just wouldn't do, so I hastily found a way to squeeze at least one Hodges scene into the snake storyline! I'll have to try to do more with him next time.

Well, while I would have liked to see more with him (he's a favorite character of mine), it doesn't show that his inclusion was an "afterthought". :)

Sara had been in the outline of my previous CSI book,

I have Headhunter on order, but it's bundled with a preorder of Vanguard: What Judgments Come, so I most likely won't get it until the end of the year.
 
I just finished Torchwood - Pack Animals. I'm going to start on The Traitor, from Mirror Universe: Shards and Shadows later tonight. I've also got the last three chapters of Romulans: Pawns of War to read.
 
Finished "Crossover" last night. It was OK, but nothing spectacular. Left me feeling kinda "Eh" at the end.

Working through Keith Richards' "Life" right now. Highly entertaining thus far. Especially if you're at all interested in post-WWII life in England (from ~1945-1960 or so).
 
I finished The Traitor, from Mirror Universe: Shards and Shadows. I also read Sherlock Holmes - His Last Bow today. About to start on The Sacred Chalice, also from Shards and Shadows.

ETA:
I finished Romulans: Pawns of War a few minutes ago.

Since I'm now a full day "ahead of the curve" on my Lenten project of the entire KJV (I'm in the middle of the Minor Prophets),

I've finally started on Indistinguishable from Magic.
 
I finished The Delta Anomaly early this morning. It was an ultra-light, inoffensive read. Better than I expected, although I thought the setting a little too contemporary for Star Trek. I'm not talking about the cadets getting plastered or whatnot (such will be the way of humans forever), but the FBI, San Francisco PD, rape gangs and even flash drives plugging into laptops... it was today but with a space college and a few aliens thrown in. There were also a trillion continuity issues and the tiny bits of Starfleet history given out predate Enterprise's retconning. I guess we've been spoiled by having so much recent Treklit written by die-hard fans.
 
I'm reading Indistinguishable From Magic. Damn that is a great read...it's my first Trek book in a year, and I've been very pleased.
 
I finished The Sacred Chalice, from Mirror Universe: Shards and Shadows, yesterday. I'm currently reading The Adventure of the Illustrious Client, from The Case-Book of Sherlock Holmes, and I'm almost done. Up next is Eureka - Brain Box Blues.
 
Recently finished Vanguard #4. Seems like a break in the action which concentrates mostly on the characters, but given how much Mack and Ward have developed those characters, they are easy to care about and so their trials carry the novel. I think my next Trek read may be the most recent Titan book -- Synthesis?

I'm about to dig into Why Do Catholics Do That?. A friend of mine is attracted to the Roman church, but he can't find anyone to give him objective discussion about it. The Protestants warn him against it, and the Catholics are eager to encourage him, so he keeps talking to me, the humanist whose religious views are vaguely Unitarian. :lol:
 
Synthesis is the mos recent book labeled "Titan". The most recent book focused on the Titan characters is Typhon Pact: Seize the Fire (which I haven't read yet).

Ah, yep. I read Seize the Fire when it was released...after this, I think I'll be caught up, Titan-wise! :)
 
I'm now over 2/3 of the way through Indistinguishible,
and it's like "old home week."

And I've finished the Old Testament, and am over halfway through The Gospel According to St. Matthew, putting me about a page "ahead of the curve" to get through the entire KJV during Lent.
 
Finished rereading DS9:Millennium. Ten years on and I found it a much more enjoyable read. May go back and read some more old favourites - The Best and the Brightest or Starfleet: Year One. Can't decide which yet.
 
Finished : Indistinguishable from Magic (4/5 stars, full review in the IDFM thread)
Reading : Probably Mort (Discworld novel) or Heat Wave (Castle novel)......decide later tonight.
