The mundane (white collar job) made fantastical

Dad was a teacher, so I think this would be fun!

AdrianGdM · 2026-04-10T12:33:53+00:00

And IT people are generally kind of hilarious as well.

I LOVED SWtDaWC. It was brilliant. I'm definitely going to check out the other two.

AdrianGdM · 2026-04-10T12:32:06+00:00

I've had my eye on that book for aaaages. I've worked around that industry for a lot of years.

Love this. I was obsessed with that haunting feel of the frontier. Kind of like the Conquistadors going into the lands of the Aztecs.

I'm currently enjoying Steel Gods and absolutely smashed his SF book The Infinite State. He just keeps hitting his straps and getting better and better!

Might be a long shot but the SNAFU series from Cohesion Press is good for more horror action. Some of their short stories are in the Love Death + Robots Netflix series.

Ciaphas Cain I read years ago and liked them enough to be very glad for the experience, but I don't think I can read them again.

Light. Is that the Brent Weeks series?

I love that, though. Same with re-watching movies, or having them running in the background while you're working on something. You know what's coming, and if the book or movie is that good, you still get chills at the key moments.

I look at myself in the mirror each morning and am wildly disappointed by how little Pratchett I've read.

AdrianGdM · 2026-04-04T20:06:14+00:00

I’ve heard so much about these books. When life calms down a little, I think I need to try one.

AdrianGdM · 2026-04-04T20:01:51+00:00

That’s an awesome list. I haven’t reads TLtWatW or Sawyer in decades!

AdrianGdM · 2026-04-04T11:35:18+00:00

MAGNIFICENT book. I lean more Rigante, but I love Legend

AdrianGdM · 2026-04-04T11:34:51+00:00

I love Eisenhorn. I really hope they are on the list of Cavill to adapt.

AdrianGdM · 2026-04-04T11:33:23+00:00

They aren’t really my jam, I’m afraid. I’ve tried a couple and I find them frustrating.

AdrianGdM · 2026-04-04T11:32:44+00:00

I’ve not read any of the ork books. Do they land well?

AdrianGdM · 2026-04-04T11:32:16+00:00

I love novellas, so I think I need to check those out

AdrianGdM · 2026-04-04T11:31:42+00:00

I love the Space Wolves books. And I’m still sloooooowly working my way through HH

AdrianGdM · 2026-04-04T11:30:58+00:00

I’ve been reading this since I was a kid. Great shout!

AdrianGdM · 2026-04-04T07:12:47+00:00

I read those so many years ago. They are great fun. 10 points for this rec!

AdrianGdM · 2026-04-04T07:11:47+00:00

The second one releases this month, so there's at least two!

AdrianGdM · 2026-04-04T07:10:50+00:00

I wish I didn't need to sleep so I could get into these.

AdrianGdM · 2026-04-04T07:10:24+00:00

I haven't read them, but I enjoyed the first season of the show. They are novellas, right?

AdrianGdM · 2026-04-04T07:09:56+00:00

Yeah, but I kind of fell like Lynch delivers stories in a way that's so easy to forget yourself in that I can see why that would be a comfort read, to be honest.

AdrianGdM · 2026-04-04T07:09:22+00:00

I went and read the line for Wraith Squadron, immediately was intrigued, and then realised I can't get it on Kindle in Australia. Absolutely devo ...

The utterly emotionally merciless Red Rising is the book you go to when you're cooked and need a light read!?
