88/150 Another day, another bug hunt! Thing start out differently this time for Rade and the Argonauts, as their opponents are humans who have captured them because their colony is revolting for independence. That quickly goes out the door as giant space spiders (Arachnauts?) invade the colony. This book is here solely for the action and bug smashing, don't come looking for character development. Good mindless fun. 4 ⭐⭐⭐⭐

RamsFan1963 4th and final book for #20in4 @Andrew65 14th book for #BigJuneReadathon @Clwojick 2y

86/150 I thought I might be getting tired of this series by now, but it keeps up the breakneck run and gun action, the breathless escapes, crude humor and slight romance that I've enjoyed so far. This time, our heroes are helping their allies, the Greens, against another race, the Hydras. I like the story has begun to add some moral ambiguity to the Phants actions, how they control other races even if they are "the good guys". 4 ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Clwojick Woohoo! 2y
Andrew65 Looks great. Well done 👏👏👏 2y

Mehso-so

To get an idea about the book, Michel Faber‘s review in The Guardian is much better than I could ever give. 22June2012
I almost bailed, but Caeneus kept me reading. I enjoyed Moonstone much more. #Iceland

Ok, this series has BEAUTIFUL layering! I love how seamless each book is into the next. Romance is not my usual genre, but I am loving this series. Halfway through the series now! If you love Greek mythology this is something I‘d recommend picking up. It‘s super spicy, but I feel still has so much character development and storyline that it‘s not the focus.

The pink theme wasn‘t working for me. Hopefully this slightly changed theme will work better and inspire some creativity and enjoyment to post. I‘m feeling really emotional and down today, I‘ve heard some things that have upset me and broken my heart because they mean that there is no hope here for such matters and that is painful to swallow. Hope you‘re all having a better day. 🖤🌻 #bookblog #bookworm #booklover #greekmythology #classicist

Good morning beautiful souls 🌸💗

I‘m still working my way through E. M. Beren‘s Myths and Legends of Ancient Greece and Rome. It‘s a really good collection of the myths and one of the best I‘ve read so far so I‘m savouring it and taking it slowly. Beautiful books need to be savoured in the mind to get all the subtle pieces and fullest enjoyment.

What is a book that you like to savour? #booklover #greekmythology #classicist

Utopiyll I savour this one 😭 it is so beautiful, and written with such amazing prose uncommon for this time! I always take my time when reading it. 6y

Dear University,

Thank you for throwing me a curveball just when I think I‘d sorted out what I wanted to do and how I wanted to work things. Now I‘m feeling a bit lost, a bit thrown out of whack, a bit disoriented and a bit awkward. I‘m scowling at my classics shelf and cursing your name. Thanks for making this hard again. Gods damn you! #bookaddict #bookish #bookblog #bookworm #classicist #classicsstudent #greekliterature #classicalgreek

laurieluna Oh no! Hope everything is ok. Xx 6y
TCLinrow Oh no! What's happened? Hope it works out x 6y

Sophoclessweetheart @miralunasbooknook @TCLinrow @Insightsintobooks Thank you ladies, I‘m feeling much better now. After four coffees and a rational think, I‘ve come to the conclusion that this surprise information as actually solved my issue— not increased it. I‘m good now. 😅🖤 6y
laurieluna @Sorceryandswords 😂 glad to hear it! Xx 6y
TCLinrow That's ok then x 😅🧡 6y
quietlycuriouskate Oh my goodness, I'm glad it's turned out ok (and I'm impressed you can think rationally after four coffees)! Nice books you've got there, too. ❤ 6y
Ddzmini Universities are always throwing curveballs you have to learn to duck and dodge 😝 love the books 📚 6y
Sophoclessweetheart @TCLinrow They‘ve decided to take down some of the modules for the classics degree from October 2019 and I was freaking out but it‘s a blessing in disguise. X 6y
Sophoclessweetheart @River_Voice Worst ever, but I think it‘s worked out okay in the end x 6y
Sophoclessweetheart @Ddzmini Thank you so much dear. X 6y
