aaaand!!!
What are you working on now?
Marie Brennan: "A follow-up book to the Memoirs of Lady Trent! It takes place a bit after the time when she wrote her memoirs, and focuses on her granddaughter, black market antiquities smugglers, and the translation of a lost Draconean epic."

I haven't even read these five yet and I'm so overly excited

That looks interesting indeed, I wonder if I should just try and get it instead of wishing it will be translated to Polish :mcgasp:

Dragons and historical fiction worked great with Temeraire, so why not? ;D

Don't you like reading in English, Mem?

@Merry: Tbh, I've never tried reading a book in English. I can handle articles and such, but never got cocky enough to actually read a novel or smthn in English. I got my hands on "Angels and Demons" once (mom found it), so I had an opportunity, but there was too many words from scientific world int he beginning and I got discouraged :mcheh: That was several years ago tho...
So that's why... I wonder if I would be able to understand things without looking into the dictionary too often :mcblush:

@Alice: Oh, that's nice to know! I couldn't find info anywhere, thank you! not that I looked too thoroughly... >///<
