It has been a couple of really slow reading. This is mainly because my focus has been on the behemoth task of tackling Mr. Moore’s intricate novel Jerusalem. The setting of his native Northampton, going thru several ages of the once Saxon capital in England, has been quite the challenge. The second part book, which I’m currently navigating, is focused on some of the dead residents of the enigmatic town.
To say it is a difficult endeavor is an understatement, but as with all of the work of Mr. Moore, it’s worth the challenge. Being realistic, my goal is to reach at least 75% of the book. The original plan was to finish in July, but with such a complicated story, it’s best to take it slowly.
What comes next on my reading queue? that’s a great question. There are three possible paths to follow. The first will be to pick up where I left the Dragonlance series. The second would be to read the next two books of The Vorrh Trilogy by the late Brian Catling. The third option is to continue the adventures of Glen Cook’s Black Company.
That decision will be made once my journey thru the treacherous streets of Northampton ends.
Off to read.
