As long ago as April I knew of the coming of The Mills of the Gods by Tim Powers (published on December 2nd), so when Kaitlyn asked me what I wanted for Christmas I had a ready answer. You can see the details about the book on that previous post; for here and now, suffice to it say it involves another one of Power’s ‘explorations of the strange bindings within historical circles.’ This time it’s of Paris between the World Wars. By a strange coincidence, Jimmy Akin on his yearly podcast episode Alone Together at Christmas answered a question about what he enjoyed reading, and he mentioned Tim Powers as one of the authors, with Expiration Date as one of his favorites of Power’s books he's read so far. I’ve read half of Mills already; it’s a real page turner. It was a Merry Christmas, indeed.
