Started Mistborn earlier this month. Not much of a fastasy reader, but since the last volumes of Gentleman Bastard and The King Killer Chronicle won't ever be released, I tried something else.
I finished The Mercy of Gods. Pretty good new series by The Expanse guys, that will get a TV series in the near future.
Currently listening to Three on my commute. Narrated by the guy who did the Frontlines books.
I know I said I'm not much of a fastasy reader, and then I churned out a bunch of fantasy stuff that I read, forgive me. It's probably the holiday spirits.
Hehe, as a fan of fantasy, you are forgiven.
Three looks interesting, how are you liking it? Also, how are you liking Mistborn? It was my foray into Sanderson's work and really like it, specially the first book.
Many thanks! Mistborn is better than I thought, Allomancy is an interesting take on magic. I think Sanderson might not be making a big enough issue of Vin's poor/noble dichotomy. shrug
Three is fun, with just the right amount of violence. And a sort of zombie analog. Give it a go. 😎
As a side note, I spent several months with the Unhewn Throne series and enjoyed it very much. (Maybe I do read a fair amount of fantasy 😜)
