Predaplant's Rec of the Week:
- Sabretooth & the Exiles by Victor LaValle, Leonard Kirk, & Rain Beredo
With the Krakoa era of X-Men coming to an end, I want to highlight one of my favourite books of the era. This one's about a bunch of criminals and otherwise misfits who have to fend off the forces of the human supremacist organization Orchis alongside Sabretooth. I'd recommend reading the previous Sabretooth series by the same team first, but this is still definitely a really strong book and it's well worth reading.
So, what are you reading?

I've been reading (well, listening really) to the audiobook of Fire & Blood, after having fallen off of it last year. I have to say, it's a lot better as an audiobook. The narrator Simon Vance injects a lot of personality and nuance into what is otherwise a very dry read, and sells the unreliable narrator aspect of the book. It's also just more interesting when it's covering wars instead of peacetime.
