R. F. Kaung comes up often, should read something from him.

Haven't read the series, but apparently you get crossovers in last few books.

Is there any way to search / browse via authors? For some reason I couldn't find it.

Interesting. Never heard of her before. Will check it out.

Well, I didn't read book 4 when it released (though I did buy it). Wanted to read when the series was complete. So, I haven't read the series since 2017-18, and 6 years is a very long time for my brain to remember stuff. I need a re-read to understand what's happening now.

Well, I don't even remember why the books were so long, but I recall I wasn't bored when reading them. There are some books (like King's) which I feel can be just as good if half of it is taken out. Don't recall feeling like that with these. Though, don't know what I'll think after the re-read.

Hehe, it's a good thing. Means they are really good.

if you are interested in abusive parents and unhealthy family dynamics

Taken out of context, it seems very weird thing to be interested in. 😀

Do share your review when you finish the book.

How are you liking the series? I have seen it recommended many times, but haven't gotten around to getting it yet.

[–] dresden@discuss.online 2 points 1 month ago

That's sad to know. Maybe it also explains why it took so long for him to write it.

I'll read the first Thursday Next book, and if I like it will get the rest of the series. Thanks for the recommendation!

I have read some of Ursula Le Guin's, but I don't think I have read The Dispossessed. Or any book in the Hainish Cycle. Should check them out.

Heh, I can understand. I haven't read Rhythm of War, but want to re-read the whole series to prepare for the 5th book, and it feels pretty daunting.

Heh. I haven't started the series yet. Got to read his Alex Verus first (which I also haven't started yet) 😀
