I've not read anything in years. I was recommended 3 Body Problem but hear it starts very slow and I could do with something easy and engaging.

Think mindless action film but in book form. To keep my attention and make me read. Get back in the habit.

    There are few series I am evangelical about and they are:

    • The Laundry Files by Charles Stross - darkly funny spy horror with lashings of Lovecraft
    • The Bas-Lag trilogy by China Mieville - fantasy/horror/weirdness
    • The Divine Cities by Robert Jackson Bennett - but difficult to summarise but a fantasy novel if the setting was a bit like the Indian subcontinent fighting back against the British Empire with a weapon that allowed them to kill the gods that enabled their subjugation.
