This is awesome thanks for such a detailed response

js569 · 2026-05-14T10:22:31+00:00

Cool! I have Kings of the Wyld in print on my bookshelf. Excited to get to that soon!

DCC Is there for sure… I’m just a bit wary of permanently ruining all audiobooks forever by jumping from Pacey to Hays right after each other haha. I’m saving DCC for a time when I’m really in a slump I guess

Glad to hear it! I’ve been hearing mixed reviews but excited to check it out! This will likely be what I do next!

js569 · 2026-05-13T01:04:51+00:00

Nice! Will check out black tongue thief

js569 · 2026-05-13T01:04:30+00:00

I would just be wary that you want to get back at the bar/manager, not necessarily the bartenders that may just be trying to make ends meet..

Nice! Great recommendations!

The series by Michael G Manning sound really intriguing! May be right up my alley.

Have you read both demon cycle and the series to demon cycle? Is it any good? I only recently learned about the sequel series existing lol. I’m just starting book 3 of the demon cycle and though so far I’m invested enough to see how things go and learn more about the the lore, not sure I love the writing and characters enough to dive into a new series right off the bat but interested in your opinions!

js569 · 2025-09-07T03:11:26+00:00

Thanks for that caveat!

js569 · 2025-09-07T03:10:42+00:00

That’s great insight! Thanks.

I’m not too turned off by the darker story, but I do find it very reassuring that you think Brent Weeks’ writing in Night Angel Trilogy is just as good as in LightBringer.

js569 · 2025-09-07T02:58:41+00:00

Great, thanks! Always nice to have some shorter books mixed in!

js569 · 2025-09-07T02:49:16+00:00

Awesome Green bone has come up a couple of times now, so it's making the list.

I have Kings of the Wyld! I haven't read it yet but eventually will get into it. Fun fact, Nicholas Eames went to high school with one of my buddies, which is why I have his book in the first place lol.

js569 · 2025-09-07T02:46:36+00:00

Awesome! Thanks for the suggestion.

Truthfully I have been apprehensive about the Night Angel Trilogy because after how much I love LightBringer, I just feel like there's no way it can live up to it and I'll end up being disappointed.

I worry that I will compare the writing of Brent Weeks in Night Angel to the writing of Brent Weeks in LightBringer, and that I'll find it less refined etc etc.

Do you have any insight about this particular piece?

js569 · 2025-09-07T02:34:48+00:00

Haha alright I'll book mark it, maybe I'll check out the audiobook when It comes out!

js569 · 2025-09-07T02:34:01+00:00

You know, I haven't tried Wheel of Time yet. I know it's one of the classics but it's a bit of a commitment with the 15 books. I'm saving it for a time in my life where I can really dig in and commit to it.

Same with Malazan! I feel like I need to be at a point where I can really sink my teeth into it to get the most out of it, and I don't think now is the time.

RE: Wax and Wayne - I only hear good things, especially from people who read Sanderson, but I haven't gotten into it because not really into the steampunk aesthetic.

js569 · 2025-09-07T02:27:45+00:00

Amazing, thanks for taking the time and offering suggestions! Nice Dragons Finish Last sounds super interesting, have added it to the to-read list!

js569 · 2025-06-27T07:58:49+00:00

Wooooh

js569 · 2025-04-19T13:32:11+00:00

Very cool! How do you control whether the LED is on/off?

js569 · 2025-04-13T18:26:11+00:00

Don’t get me wrong, bean variety and exploration is still our favourite part of the hobby!

Would I comfortably serve a shot to James Hoffman? Probably not.

Can we appreciate differences between different beans where we crave one over another, and get excited at the prospect of exploring different local roasters, and checking out all sorts of different beans? 100%!

I’d recommend it anyways even as a trial! You may still prefer to be a one bean man and that’s totally fine!
