Historians in Trouble: plagiarism, fraud, and politics in the ivory tower by John Wiener
Wiener's essential argument is that the amount of trouble a Historian gets into when (s)he does something wrong depends on the power of those (s)he has offended. Cautiously recommended.
The Keys to the Kingdom Book Two: Grim Tuesday by Garth Nix
Less than eight hours after facing Mr. Monday , Arthur Penhaligon is again threatened by the denizens of the mysterious house . . . this time by Grim Tuesday, who has the lien on all of Monday's possessions and Arthur's world as well. Arthur wants nothing more than to rest, but he has no choice. He must face Tuesday, to save the world as he knows it.
This maintains the high quality of the first book, and it adds something new to a lot of series fiction: Arthur ends the book realizing that the "latter days" are not going to let things stand. They will keep coming after him, unless he goes after them first.
Now I just have to wait for Drowned Wednesday to come out in paperback.
Highly recommended.
