I'm on book 5 of Mage Errant by John Beirce. Came across it on Kindle Unlimited and it's been pretty fun. Short reads, progression fantasy mildly YA, but I'm enjoying them.

What are y'all reading?

I'm finally reading through Tress of the Emerald Sea - it looks like i dropped it the chapter before it got good - oops.

Will probably read through the rest of the secret projects then (probably next month) finish my Diskworld readthrough (not the Shepard's Crown though!)

Edit: the discworld reread was delayed by an unscheduled reread of the Blue Core trilogy (a dungeon core/litrpg)

Any reason in particular you're not reading the last book?

[-] Nighed@sffa.community 1 points 1 year ago

Just can't bring myself to read his last book. I even got it in hardback!

Oooh, the Blue Core Trilogy. So much potential on that one. With some tightening of plot and more character depth it could very well have been Great instead of merely Good.

Yeh, I don't think he did any additional editing when turning them into ebooks unfortunately. Some of the pacing could have done with some work.

What characters did you want more depth with?
