Basically this book club is whatever I am reading this month. Suggestions are very welcome and feel free to chat about the books in the proper list. Don't want to give away too much before the others are read.

In the first post, I'll list off the books to be read and which ones that can be talked about. The second post will be where I spot light this month's books so you can decide which ones you are going to read. The third post is where I'll set up a rating list that I gather from your discussion about the books here.

October Books:
- The Hawk and His Boy by Christopher Bunn
- Origin by J.A. Konrath
-
-

Talk about list:
-Harry Potter Books
-Twilight
-Ender's Game by Orson Scott Card

This Month's Books

The Hawk and His Boy
By Christopher Bunn
Amazon Kindle price: $0.99
Fiction

The Beginning of an Epic Adventure
One night in the city of Hearne, a young thief named Jute is instructed to break into a wizard's house and steal an old wooden box. It sounds like a straightforward job. Climb down the chimney, creep through the house, find the thing and get out fast. Unbeknownst to the boy, however, the box contains the knife that killed the Wind. Overcome with curiosity, Jute opens the box and sets off a chain of events that soon has him on the run from the wizard, his old masters in the Thieves Guild, and their client, who happens to be the Lord of Darkness himself. On his odyssey of escape, Jute is aided by an unlikely assortment of friends, including a guilt-ridden assassin, a reluctant wizard, and a hawk who just might be able to teach him how to fly. But the Darkness will do anything to find Jute, even if it means plunging the whole land into war.

The Hawk And His Boy is the first book of The Tormay Trilogy. The trilogy continues with The Shadow At The Gate, and concludes with The Wicked Day. Please be advised that these books are not stand-alone stories, but are simply part of the larger tale of The Tormay Trilogy.
