Sadham Hussain sadham27 — Beka Cooper is a rookie with the law-enforcing Provost's Guard, commonly known as "the Provost's Dogs," in Corus, the capital city of Tortall. To the surprise of both the veteran "Dogs" and her fellow "puppies," Beka requests duty in the Lower City. The Lower City is a tough beat. But it's also where Beka was born, and she's comfortable there. Beka gets her wish. She's assigned to work with Mattes and Clary, famed veterans among the Provost's Dogs. They're tough, they're capable, and they're none too happy about the indignity of being saddled with a puppy for the first time in years. What they don't know is that Beka has something unique to offer. Never much of a talker, Beka is a good listener. So good, in fact, that she hears things that Mattes and Clary never could - information that is passed in murmurs when flocks of pigeons gather; murmurs that are the words of the dead. In this way, Beka learns of someone in the Lower City who has overturned the power structure of the underworld and is terrorizing its citizens into submission and silence. Beka's magical listening talent is the only way for the Provost's Dogs to find out the identity of this brutal new underlord, for the dead are beyond fear. And the ranks of the dead will be growing if the Dogs can't stop a crime wave the likes of which has never been seen. Luckily for the people of the Lower City, the new puppy is a true terrier! As a lifelong Tamora Pierce fan, I knew I would want to read this book because it gives great insight into the earlier part of Tortall’s history, but I was unsure if I’d enjoy it because of the diary format. Even with my qualms about the format, I found that Beka’s voice was both strong and realistic, and it gave us a great view of the world that was completely different from the ones we got from Alanna, Daine, Keladry, and Aly. I loved the pages that were ‘ruined’ by the whistle. It added a more realistic view of the journal aspect, considering I’ve never yet had a journal that I haven’t gotten something on at least one page of, and she was using actual bottles of ink! For those who are familiar with Pierce’s work, it gives insight into the underbelly of Corus, both in their budding police (Dogs) as well as the history of the Court of the Rogue, not to mention giving background into one of the most beloved male characters in Song of the Lioness, George Cooper. You get to see the beginning of a changing society, much different than the one we see in the more modern Song of the Lioness, Immortals, and As I said earlier, Beka’s voice is realistic, as is the world she lives in. Some people in the Provost’s Guard are just there for a paycheck, some of them are corrupt, and some of them, like Beka, really are there to help others. She has to count her money to see if she can afford things like laundry or extra food, especially when she ends up with four unexpected houseguests near the end of the novel. Beka gets completely tongue-tied Beka is idealistic, despite knowing the harsh reality of the lives of those she helps in the Lower City. Even knowing the reality, Beka has to learn that even though they do their best, the Dogs cannot catch everyone who has wronged others, and the lives of multiple people are more important than the lives of one person, even if that person happens to be Beka’s best friend’s husband. Even learning this lesson, Beka doesn't give up on anyone that she has the chance to help. Beka had a wide group of friends that included three criminals who are on the rise in the Court of the Rogue, the wife of a mob boss’s grandson, older dogs, as well as Puppies and Dogs that were of a similar age. She had a healthy social life, and despite not being overly talkative, has wonderful friends that really cared about her, which is different from most of the shy characters that you see in a lot of YA fiction. I see a lot of characters that are shy, and therefore have no friends, but as usual Pierce remembered that just because you don’t like to talk all the time, you don’t have to have absolutely no friends. I loved learning Dog’s work along with Beka, and this reads like a police mystery novel, something that I have always loved in my television, and I also loved in this book. Terrier has stood up to the re-reading test. It is as enjoyable every time I've read it since I bought it several years ago. (Other books in the trilogy are Bloodhound and Mastiff, which I will be reviewing later!)

Francisco Fernandez _elkart — When I received Regarding Ducks and Universes I really had no idea what to expect. The blurb made is sound like a humorous romp with the feel of Christopher Moore. to a certain extent, it is. But what I ended up getting was a light mystery more in the vein of China Mielville. When we start the book we are in a transporter that allows individuals to travel from Universe A to Universe B. Neither universe is ours although both have a striking resemblance. However, Universe A relies on computers and has a serious inflation problem and Universe B still contains books and personal motor vehicles. Each universe was unique and I found myself being drawn into both of them without really realizing what was happening. Before I knew it I was hunting for more of the little things to see how they compared to each other and our own universe. I also was looking for clues to the mystery the novel was attempting to solve. Felix A (from Universe A) is our main character and from the moment we are introduced to him, he quickly comes off as a very real individual with real concerns and feelings. The rest of the characters do a decent job of rounding out the cast and some are a bit wacky but overall they all add to the story. Felix A is a bored to death writer who dreams of writing a mystery novel and hopes to find out more about his double (Felix B) and to see if his double leads a better life than he does and if he has been beaten to the punch about his novel. Another interesting thing about the two universes was how they came to be and how one could travel and communicate between the two. The two universes have a privacy law that far exceeds anything we have here in our universe and really holds the two universes together and to a certain degree, apart. The whole same yet different concept was explored in Mielville's The City and The City and Regarding Ducks and Universes is similar yet, much easier to take in. The rules are quickly established and then the characters look for ways to turn it to their advantage or in some cases blatantly disregard it. There are many humorous incidents and observations within Regarding Ducks and Universes, which offer a few light-hearted moments. There are a few science fictional elements that make up the story but the core of the story is a mystery. As Felix A (from Universe A) and Felix B (from Universe B) work with and against each other to help different organizations find out just what event lead to the two (nearly) identical universes to become (slightly) altered. I really had no idea just what to expect when I started reading Regarding Ducks and Universes and found myself enjoying the adventure and mystery found within. It is a light read with a lot of great moments and a decent mystery that leaves you guessing until the end. The brilliance that I found in Regarding Ducks and Universes is that there are a lot of mystery in the book, from our character wanting to write a mystery novel, to his love of Agatha Christie, to the mystery contained within the book. The book itself is an enigma, wrapped up in a puzzle and all of it is down simply and without difficulty
