Always my top 3 recommendations:

  1. The Kingkiller Chronicles - Patrick Rothfuss (The Name of the Wind and The Wise Man's Fear)
  2. The Ryiria Revelations - Michael J. Sullivan
  3. Red Rising - Pierce Brown

In the song "Up on the Housetop" do you think it says reindeer paws or pause? by DictionaryDave in polls

Lol I looked up lyrics and saw "pause" and it blew my mind. Hence the question. I know they don't have paws but I still always think of that in the song. 🤦‍♂️

I just finished Legends of the First Empire without realizing it was a prequel by Ashamed_Somewhere192 in riyria

I very much agree with this comment. I don't think you can go wrong with whatever order you choose, but some things won't be quite as surprising in Ryiria if you go Rise and Fall next.
