This week's #NewBooks at the library: Three works of #fiction.
- I bought the 40th anniversary edition of Richard Adams's Shardik at a charity event at work
- Have been enjoying Silo, so couldn't pass up buying the collector's edition of the second book, Shift by @hughhowey.
- Bought the slipcased collector's edition of #Warhammer The End Times: Thanquol at an eBay auction at a very fair price. #Skaven remain my favourite faction...

A photo of three books standing on a small, brown, wooden table. The out-of-focus background shows black shelves full of books, part of the beech-coloured laminate floor, and a red curtain covering the door.

On the left, standing up, Shardik, showing a side silhouette of a snarling wolf's head in transparent red against a background of pale wooden planks making up a wall. Its upper teeth have been replaced by icons of evergreen trees, its lower teeth by icons of houses and church spires.

In the middle, lying down, Shift, showing hardback with a black dust jacket with a pattern of radial lines in gold fanning out from the title Shift in the centre. The book's edges have been sprayed blue.

On the right, standing up, Warhammer The End Times: Thanquol, showing a slipcase with two books partially pulled out. The slipcase pictures a green-tinged drawing of two monstrous humanoid rat figures. One shows Boneripper, a cross between an ogre and a ratman, one arm surgically augmented with armour and ending in a cannon. He is wearing a hood over his snout that leaves his eyes and snarling mouth exposed. On his back is the figure of Thanquol, a cloaked ratman with two pairs of horns sprouting from his head. In one hand, he is wielding a staff; in the other, reins connected to a harness on Boneripper.
