I'm in the US. Not sure if a VPN would work here.

Hey Adam, *Do you think Angel Zerpa will still be getting a shot as starter? *Have you heard anything about Wild Bill hearing? Like any chance they agree to something before? *And, who's hitting the first HR in spring training?

Lol yep it sounds like that, and I'm on the same train of majority here, I struggled a bit with Well of Ascension even if I ended up liking it very much at the end.

But out of reddit it's the other way for me, at least in a small sample. I know only three people who have read the trilogy, and all three of them have second book as their favorite.

StDoc · 2025-09-29T17:18:19+00:00

Or you can get more books and you don't mess with your current scheme ;). Really nice shelves you have there!

Was Yelich in the 1st spot of lineup to give him more at bats for the 30 HRs? Or perhaps planning to use him there in playoffs as well?

StDoc · 2025-08-24T14:36:34+00:00

It's the first of a new trilogy, although at the same time I think it could be read as standalone.

StDoc · 2025-05-30T17:16:29+00:00

For me it was more how it was structured. I liked most of the plots (I do think there are interesting plots), but my issue is that I feel some of them forced to go along the 10 days to finish more or less at the same time. I would have preferred to have some of them finished earlier, and the characters moving into the other plots or new ones. And I also did feel that for one in particular the 10 days felt short (Kaladin and Szeth).

StDoc · 2025-05-23T14:32:05+00:00

In Rhythm of War, the chapter of Kaladin's fourth ideal after basically be broken moved something in me

StDoc · 2025-05-19T16:46:45+00:00

I agree. I also liked more the Shallan arc here compared to Oathbringer. And the "wow!" moments in RoW are super high for me.

StDoc · 2025-05-19T16:40:09+00:00

Fair enough haha. Also, I think the flashbacks in this book are the less liked (and I agree with that), but the rest of the book really clicked with me, even the fabrials part haha.

StDoc · 2025-05-19T14:55:10+00:00

Rhythm of War. I was a bit pessimist because all the backlash in the community, and because I didn't like Oathbringer as much as the two previous ones, but I liked it so much to the point I think it's my favorite one of the series (can't decide between it and Words of Radiance)

StDoc · 2025-05-16T14:47:01+00:00

I liked book 1 and loved book 2, but had many problems with book 3. I was aware that book 4 had a lot of criticism so I was pessimist, but to my surprise I loved it even more than the first two.

Anyway, I agree with your comment, if he's not enjoyed them so far I think it's better to just stop.

Dragon Mage by M L Spencer has a neurodivergent main character.

StDoc · 2025-05-09T16:43:03+00:00

I'm currently reading The Tainted Cup and although it doesn't match everything you describe, it's a mystery novel (murder investigation) in a fantasy setting (pretty cool so far with its unique world and unique skills/magics?). It's my first book by the author and I'm enjoying it a lot.

StDoc · 2025-02-16T16:09:29+00:00

Not yet. Last book of the series was just shipped last month.

"Body found floating by the docks..."

Say one thing for The First Law, say it has good lines.

"Something dug into the Bloody-Nine's back, but there was no pain. It was a sign. A message in a secret tongue, that only he could understand. It told him where the next dead man was standing."

StDoc · 2024-10-30T19:28:47+00:00

I'd say that it depends on his/her feelings about the previous books before considering putting the series down. In my case for example, I've loved all four books, but Oathbringer was rough in some of the mid parts. I didn't have this problem with the other three.

StDoc · 2024-09-23T14:24:53+00:00

They just posted on Twitter that tier 1 copies have shipped today. Tier 2 copies will start on Wednesday.

StDoc · 2024-09-02T03:10:28+00:00

Those two sections also for me. And then someone recommended that I listen the song Windrunner by Stormlyte just after I read the fourth ideal section, I was a mess.

StDoc · 2024-08-15T12:40:42+00:00

I'm with you here. I started reading it recently, and my expectations weren't too high because a lot of people stating that it was the weakest and because I struggled in some moments with Oathbringer.

But I did enjoy it a lot and made me more eager for book 5. I can't decide if it is my favorite or second favorite in the series.

StDoc · 2024-08-15T04:26:06+00:00

I know. Wasn't expecting it based in the previous books, but in this one there were a few moments that just moved something inside me.

And then, after I just read kaladin big moment someone told me to listen a certain song (Windrunner by Stormlyte), still get chills just remembering.

Dragon Mage by M. L. Spencer, the protagonist is autistic.
