4. _Leviathan_ by Scott Westerfield

Jan 2013

YA Steampunk.

Just finished the last in the Jim Butcher's Alera Codex, _First Lord's Fury_.

Current audiobook _Shadows in Bronze_ by Lindsey Davis, Marcus Didius Falco #2. Falco is a "private informer" during the reign of the Emperor Vespasian. Interesting, too, since in takes place in and around the Bay of Naples in CE 71, eight years before the famous eruption of Vesuvius and my wife and I are also watching a series of lectures from the Teaching Company about Pompei. Serendipity, I guess.
