Audiobooks
Amelia Peabody again by Elizabeth Peters, read by Barbara Rosenblatt - The Snake, The Crocodile and the Dog was a finish and of course a relisten. The Hippopotamus Pool was a first - it was only available from Amazon, and I didn't get it until recently because I didn't realise Rob wasn't boycotting Amazon and my principles got bent. Seeing A Large Cat I had read in ebook form but not heard as an audiobook and I didn't remember a lot of it. The Ape Who Guards The Balance was a straightforward relisten. Guardian of the Horizon was another Amazon purchase and completely new to me. This was the one I was really excited about and I am glad I filled in the gaps in the story it covers.

Arabella by Georgette Heyer read by Phyllida Nash, an old favourite.

Short stories
"Actually Naneen" by Malka Older - I haven't read any Older before as far as I can remember but I liked her in a recent Comfort Reads panel and I really enjoyed this story. https://issues.org/futuretensefiction/fiction-archives-actually-naneen-malka-older/

From a collection I'm reading through slowly, "Snowdrift" by Georgette Heyer, which is fine I guess. "Full Moon" was more amusing but I don't really remember it much. I think I'm not particularly keen on how she wrote short stories. "Pistols for Two" was similarly fine for passing time but I won't seek it out. "A Clandestine Affair" also. I'll read the rest sometime.
