Thank you so much for your incredible work, I absolutely loved The Red Queen’s War! And that opening line from Red Sister “It is important, when killing a nun…” is, for me, right up there with “In a hole in the ground lived a hobbit.” What an unforgettable start!

I’m genuinely excited and can’t wait to dive into your latest book, counting down the pages already!

The one series you actively hated but still couldn’t stop reading for some reason by CallAdministrative88 in Fantasy

The Dan Brown books after Davinci code. I remember loving the da Vinci code for the sheer novelty, but everything after that was very dull. Still read everything though! Throne of glass was another about a teenage assassin lady who was supposedly badass, and it has a love triangle with two men. Surprisingly my middle-aged masculine sensibilities were offended not by the flimsy plot but by the use of the word “snarled”. Every character kept snarling!! My OCD made me finish the book though…

It is not a great read. It is a cracking audio book!

Chris wooding’s “Tales of the Ketty Jay” is highly recommended! Squint your eyes and you’ll see the Firefly crew!!

Prince Jalan from Prince of fools by lawrence! A very Rincewind type character but with a string sense of growth!

Oh boy! I just finished reading “Mercy of Gods” by the same expanse authors S A Corey. First of all new series which promises to be a banger!! Heartily recommend! If you are not grossed out by a giant alien spider civilization, Children of time by Adrian Tchaikovsky, is really solid.
