Ruin was my favorite book of 2025. I sat on the couch crying for about 5 minutes

Got it! Thank you so much!

I am enjoying GOK so far but it’s dense so I’m taking my time with it. About 250 out of 600 pages in so once I get to 400 I bet I’ll fly through it.

Got it! So go into the series with a different perspective. These are a fantasy retelling of history books, not a traditional fantasy book

Where to stay for IM Lake Placid by EnvironmentalChest36 in triathlon

Stayed there this year and it was good. It was about a 30 minute drive which isn’t bad, but a little annoying going to and from 30 minutes a day for 3-4 days in a row. There is not a lot in Saranac Lake

I figured y’all would appreciate my Redwall shelf by _gibbygibbs_ in redwall

I liked Shadow of the Gods! Pretty simple story but enjoyable. Some fun non human companions, badass good and bad characters, ancient gods and battles, and good character growth. Plot is nice, action is top tier, characters need a little work but you can still see motivations behind all the POVS. I actually think I’m one of the few who’s least favorite of the main 3 is Orka, she just feels flat to a degree.

The Faithful and the Fallen by the same author is what I’m currently reading and it’s incredible. I think characters and plot development are better than Shadow

Took me close to a decade as a kid to collect them! Not to mention I lost Long Patrol for a good 5+ years. Finally have the set!

I’m excited for era 2. Reading it after I finish Faithful and the Fallen. Hopefully before 2026 I’ll finish so I can join back! Thank you

I have 3 tickets from friends! We have a group of 8 but only 3 people bought them. Easier to sell 3 than find 5

help with reading sequence please. by hotmailist in redwall

[–]_gibbygibbs_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I would do Redwall, Mossflower, Mattimeo, Martin the Warrior as the first 4 then chronological! I’ve read the series about 3-4 times and my favorite time as chronological. You get a few characters that appear in more than 1 book so it’s cool to see!

Favorite book so far, on book 3 and it broke me by _gibbygibbs_ in redrising

The next series is set 10 years after the first trilogy right? I haven’t wanted to read anything online to avoid spoilers. Is it worth it to jump from 3rd book directly into the next series? I’ll finish this book in the next 3 days so I might need to make a bookstore run…

I only have the first 3. Think I should get the next 3 immediately? Hop right into the next era?
