Publisher's summary
We must first defeat ourselves.
Terrible cave trolls, tree beasts from the Faraway Lands, even the wizard-thing of the north—Dregg of the House of Brute has defeated them all and become legend of Thisearth! But none of his triumphant exploits have dampened the screams of a lifetime of combat that haunt him. Beaten and withered, he has chosen to live out a life of quiet solitude, until one day....
Now, he must set out for one final charge against an evil force that has terrified the south nation of Izzic. But unbeknownst to him, a past enemy once defeated has returned to terrorize the world of Thisearth. It is up to Dregg and his stalwart travel companion named Imple to venture into the terrifying swamp and pluck victory once again from the clutches of defeat.
But first, he must search into his bruised soul and find the courage he once possessed...for the only person on Thisearth that can stop the rising evil is the legend of old.

Infused with magic, shadows and starlight, the powerful godblades were believed to be lost nearly half a millennia ago, when the Godswar ended. Now, however, one has been found by the unlikeliest of wielders: Sampson Gaard, a blind but ambitious prince with something to prove. The only question is whether he controls the blade or the blade him. With an insidious evil lurking in the shadows, the answer may very well determine the fate of all Kingfall.

In 2022, Lisa Marie Presley asked her daughter to help finally finish her long-gestating memoir. A month later, Lisa Marie was dead, and the world would never know her story in her own words, never know the passionate, joyful, caring, and complicated woman that Riley loved and now grieved. Riley got the tapes that her mother had recorded for the book, lay in her bed, and listened as Lisa Marie told story after story about smashing golf carts together in the yards of Graceland, about the unconditional love she felt from her father, about being upstairs, just the two of them.

Then the brutal murder of a young woman—the latest in a string of deaths across the coast—confounds police. The primary suspect? A mystery man who dates his victims before he kills them.

In 2022, Lisa Marie Presley asked her daughter to help finally finish her long-gestating memoir. A month later, Lisa Marie was dead, and the world would never know her story in her own words, never know the passionate, joyful, caring, and complicated woman that Riley loved and now grieved. Riley got the tapes that her mother had recorded for the book, lay in her bed, and listened as Lisa Marie told story after story about smashing golf carts together in the yards of Graceland, about the unconditional love she felt from her father, about being upstairs, just the two of them.

Sydney Shaw, like every single woman in New York, has terrible luck with dating. She’s seen it all: men who lie in their dating profile, men who stick her with the dinner bill, and worst of all, men who can't shut up about their mothers. But finally, she hits the jackpot. Her new boyfriend is utterly perfect. He's charming, handsome, and works as a doctor at a local hospital. Sydney is swept off her feet. Then the brutal murder of a young woman—the latest in a string of deaths across the coast—confounds police. The primary suspect? A mystery man who dates his victims before he kills them.

The plane is jam-packed. Every seat is taken. So of course the flight is delayed! Flight attendant Allegra Patel likes her job—she’s generally happy with her life, even if she can’t figure out why she hooks up with a man she barely speaks to—but today is her twenty-eighth birthday. She can think of plenty of things she’d rather be doing than placating a bunch of grumpy passengers.

Why is Miami… Miami? What does the heartbreaking fate of the cheetah tell us about the way we raise our children? Why do Ivy League schools care so much about sports? What is the Magic Third, and what does it mean for racial harmony? In this provocative new work, Malcolm Gladwell returns to the subject of social epidemics and tipping points, this time with the aim of explaining the dark side of contagious phenomena. Through a series of gripping stories, Gladwell traces the rise of a new and troubling form of social engineering

Good Fantasy
This is a true fantasy action adventure fashioned after Beowulf. It skips around between flashbacks and the current quest which could be confusing, but it is written clear enough to follow. The description is almost poetic and the world building simple and easy to follow. Nice to read about a hero who has a conscience, intelligence, and a sort of virtue. Complete with fantasy adventure elements and dramatic description, the story follows Dregg as he goes after the Glob to save the people of Izzic. A listened to this on Audio, so it was even more dramatic and kept me intrigued from beginning to satisfying end. Looking forward to the next book.
