Reading the first book of the Lyonesse trilogy again. I’ve always had a soft spot for these books.
There’s a certain fairytale atmosphere to them that just feels very… cozy I guess.Right now it’s We Are Legion (We Are Bob). I’d avoided it for a long time based on the name, but it turns out that was unfair. It’s been a great read.
Before that, Elder Race and Spiderlight by Adrian Tchaikovsky. If you haven’t read any of his work yet, do yourself a favor. He’s easily one of my favorite authors these days.
Loved the Bobiverse.
Iain M. Banks’ Culture novel Use of Weapons
Oh I remember that one, left a lasting impression on me. (Trying to be vague and avoid spoilers :)
Ooh, that’s a good one. One of the books used to introduce Banks to me, a while back.
The Heroes by Joe Abercrombie.
Always love how well everything is tied into his universe together whilst simultaneously telling a unique and independent story.
I haven’t read for pleasure in years. I read a lot but it’s all fire alarm panel user manuals
I really need to read more
Dune!
Oh nice! I read it when I was younger, but I’ve added this to my re-read list!
I’m about 4/5 through the second to last book of the Expanse.
Malazan book of the fallen, last time I tried it, he was still writing it…
Happy Hour is for Amateurs.
It’s pretty hysterical.
Not at the moment, no.
Edit: Smartass mode off. Currently reading Death From The Skies by Phil Plait, and the occasional Ray Bradbury short story when I need a ‘snack’ before bed.
I saw Phil Plait speak years ago in Vegas. Fascinating guy.
Haha. You must be on a lunch break! I’d love to score one likes yours.
I suppose I meant… What are you reading? Lol I fixed title.
Assassins apprentice, the first in the Farseer trilogy by Robin Hobb. About two thirds of the way through, it’s been a gripping read.
I’ve just started the wheel of time. The beginning is very “heroes journey” but I’ve been enjoying it so far
I just finished the Moon of the Crusted Snow by Waubgeshig Rice. It was really good. Trying to figure out what to read next.
Moonwalking with Einstein - Joshua Foer
Straight man by Russo. It’s a riot.
I find your username having a similar quality, but have yet to read this book :)
Thanks, it’s a family name.
lol
