Very good book just like filthy rich fae ………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………11111

This is always an ongoing read for me. I bought the special edition from b&n years ago and read it with my teen and tween

A new (or old) sentient spaceship is bringing a murder mystery fan convention to Eternity. Mallory’s agent signed her up to give the keynote speech and participate in a murder LARP. But bringing that many humans into Mallory’s orbit guarantees there will be a real murder, one that only Mallory can solve. The untrustworthy space wasps are back in the third Midsolar Murders book. Also a toddler sentient ship, the birth of a Gneiss, human-alien fusion cuisine, and all (okay just 85%) of the internet downloaded, backed up, and made real(ish).

Mary Kenney is a video game developer writing to encourage girls and women to bring their talents to her industry. She addresses Gamergate and her own experience with misogyny in gaming early on. The women included go back to Mabel Addis Mergardt who designed a game for an IBM educational program in 1963. Kenney’s message is clear: women have been integral to the video game industry from day 1. The only thing I dislike about this book is the order. The short bios seem arranged in whatever order Kenney thought of the women to include. Maybe chronologically would have made more sense.

Corinne Michaels has a way of grabbing your heart and never letting go. One of my favorite authors and a fantastic listen while washing dishes

People traveled in the 12th-15t centuries. Merchants sought new markets, diplomats finagled treaties, and anyone who could get the necessary funding and permissions took religious pilgrimages. Bale explores the most common holy and trade routes based on what the travelers wrote in journals and guidebooks. It is very interesting, but too limited. Bale points out several times that Christians (Roman and Eastern/Greek), Muslims, and Jewish pilgrims visited many of the same places in Constantinople and Jerusalem. We only have the Christian, and almost exclusively Western European Christian, stories. One small chapter near the end follows Asian travelers’ adventures in the west. Ma Huan (Chinese Muslim), Het’um (Armenian Christian), and Rabban Bar Sauma (Christian Mongol) don’t represent the majority of nonEuropeans. A broader range of viewpoints and less personal commentary from the author would improve the book.
