Books and TV

Queen's Thief finally arrived today! Well, no. Actually only half of it arrived. Fortunately, it was the right half, the last two books, so I can at least find out what happened. (Though I really want to reread the first two, now, Queen of Attolia especially - I've forgotten a lot, I think).

I just blitzed through King of Attolia. *grins helplessly* Gen, GenGenGenGenGen. Oh, I love him. The perfect Trickster hero. And Costis, you poor sorry bastard. Like everyone else who had to deal with him for the first time, you had no idea. And Gen and Irene remain painful and lovely beyond belief. *beams happily*

I shall save Conspiracy of Kings for tomorrow, I think. Something to savour. And then I'll probably reread both. *bounces*

Also, I accidentally watched the last half of S1 and the first half of S2 of a show called Warehouse 13 (don't ask how one 'accidentally' watches some 12-odd episodes of something, you'd be surprised how often shit like that happens to me). I adore Artie. Also Claudia. And all of them, the whole team. But. Artie. Also James, and Artie & James, and what it seems to have done to him. (I'm trying not to read too much into an old partnership of spies who dealt with weird shit for the government, when they're named Artie and James. How likely is it that W13 was deliberately riffing Wild Wild West?)

I've no idea what the rest of the series is like (and I should watch the first few episodes too, I think), but ... yes. I rather loved it. Age Before Beauty was lovely, in particular. Heh. And Helena seems like she's going to be interesting ...

*smiles tiredly* Things to enjoy, yes? Heh.
