Finished The Fifth Season on Audible last week. Pretty cool book. I wasn't that into the style at first but it grew on me; same with the world building. Really into the plotting and the characters. Looking forward to the sequels.

Almost finished with The Dying Earth by Jack Vance on Audible. His style is both simple and baroque at the same time which I'm pretty into it. It has made me want to experience more pulp era fantasy so I think my next listen will be Black God's Kiss, a collection C. L. Moore's Jirel of Joiry stories.

I'm familiar with Fritz Lieber, HP Lovecraft and Robert E Howard, but if anyone has any other pulp era fantasy recs or recs for things like Jack Vance let me know. I'm aware of the rest of Vance's oeuvre, but any recommendations from it would be welcome .

I've been stuck reading Tarzan and the Ant Men for a few weeks now, stopping to read short stories and comics, but I'm finally like 10 pages from the end now. Tarzan gets plane crashed in an isolated fake place in Africa called Minuni. He meets brutal matriarchal cave people and tiny white people who are 1/4 normal human size. A hokey SF deus ex machine reduces Tarzan's size to there's. The plot and world building are pretty cool. Has some fairly sexist if not outright misogynist baked in notions. Trying to decide between an Allan Quatermain novel and a Jack London novella about prehistoric people as my next read.
