Possibly mild spoilers for Wizards at War, although I believe the back cover alludes to it. Can't remember though.
So I finally got my hands on A Wizard of Mars. I was--still am--terribly, terribly excited about getting it at last. I have been waiting for years and years (first it was the writing period, then the publisher pushing dates back, and then I had the most difficult time trying to obtain the book [going to two separate stores, then ordering it and finding the order cancelled one month later, and then waiting another full month for it to ship here...]) and zomg I'm almost done and while I think the peak of the series was probably Wizards at War (I mean, trying to save the universe is pretty hard to follow up on) I still love this book. Especially the more-and-more fleshed-out Carmela and (as always) Tom and Carl. And Ronan.
I am bad. I should be reading Crime and Punishment, but after rereading Kafka's The Metamorphosis, I can't take any more existential angst for awhile.
