"weekly thread" was clearly a lie
Rereading Malazan Book of the Fallen, with all the side books mixed in with the core 10.
Side books as in the other 10 Malazan books, written by that other author (Sorry, forgot his name), or there are some other books too?
Yeah, all the Esslemont ones, in the order the authors recommend on the wiki. There is the new Witness Trilogy from Erikson (#1 The God is Not Willing is out - it and the audiobook are great).
Wow, that list is a lot longer than I expected. Thanks for the info!
Pirateaba dropped 80K on their Patreon this week so working my way through that.
Still need to finish Yumi and the Nightmare Painter too. Its another on of Hoid's tales so I really should get to it.
Oooh. I loved Tress of the Emerald Sea. It was very refreshing style, if Yumi and the Nightmare Painter is anything similar, it's going to be great too.
I think Tress is my favourite Brando Sando book. Its just so whimsical and you can tell how much he tried to vary from his normal style.
Just finished the second book in the Broken Earth trilogy. It has been pretty good so far :D
Not reading anything Fantasy right now. Unless we count manga, in that case, reading JuJutsu Kaisen. Just started it. Liking it so far.
We also have a weekly thread (not a lie) at /c/books@lemmy.world. You're all welcome to join in on the discussion. It's about all books, so everything from Fantasy, sci-fi, romance, non-fiction, text books, all are welcome!
I've just finished cleaning up my Calibre library and switched to the Story Graph - I really like the filters for figuring out what to read next.
Currently reading The Lefthanded Booksellers of London by Garth Nix. I've been trying to avoid YA content but picked this up as a palette refresh. So far, I'm enjoying the world-building and the snappy dialogue.
I just blew through the Gild series by Raven Kennedy - it was a random Story Graph recommendation but apparently it's huge on Booktok. I generally enjoyed it, particularly the world-building and character development. The fourth book dragged as there's a lot of set up for the final book (to be published) in the series.
And of course, Dungeon Crawler Carl, book 6! It's getting very complex but the core elements that drew me to it are still there. How in the world is this going to end?
I am reading "Setite" which is a vampire the masquerade novel in a large series of novels. I bought the entire series as they came out and only read them once. They are a lot worse than I remember haha.
Not fantasy; I am reading The Brothers Karamazov. I am now at around 25% mark. An interesting love triangle seems to have developed involving Alyosha's brothers Ivan, Dimitri and Dimitri's fiance. Dimitri has made a mess of things and poor Alyosha's trying to help by mediation.
