I can’t wait for the new Lynsay Sands Argeneau book. I love that series. Probably one of the funniest I have ever read. I really want to read the Iron Druid Chronicles as well. I have seen such good reviews on here.
Thanks for posting I am also waiting for Argenneau bookand Christian I really loved his caracter.
My favorite Argeneau book is the one with Pudge in it. Like the third book in the series. So funny!!! It was actually the first one I read and I was hooked from then on.
