What are you reading this August?
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?
You're viewing a single thread.
I am currently reading Reaper, book 10 in the Cradle series by Will Wright. So far enjoying the series.
Also on re-reading Carpe Jugulum by Terry Pratchett for my endless Discworld re-read.
Oh Reaper was really nice, you have some great stuff coming up in the next books. I finished Cradle this summer and it was SO good. Very satisfying finish.
I'm still on my first go-through of Discworld. I've read City Watch, a few standalones and am on the Witches books now. Next up is Maskerade.
Glad to hear it has a satisfying end. I have been quite enjoying the series so far. I need to figure out what I am going to read next, as I'm nearing the end of Cradle. I am thinking of starting the Revelation Space series by Alastair Reynolds, as I usually like to go back and forth between fantasy and sci-fi, but I'm always open to recommendations.
How do you like it so far? The Discworld series is my personal favorite, so I am always happy to see people getting into it! If you are enjoying it, you should check out !discword@lemmy.ml.
We have a Discworld community here as well, it's just taking a bit to get it going. Our instance is trying to be a collective home for anything Sci-Fi or Fantasy related :)
If you haven't read it yet, Murderbot Diaries is fun Sci-Fi. Short, quick reads but very tight pacing and storytelling and a wonderful main POV character (it's told in first-person).
Ah cool, I have subscribed to it as well! Thanks!
I have not yet, and I have seen it on a few lists, so I will have to check it out, thank you!
That's a series I have somehow missed - looks to be quite a recently (and fast?) Written series - is it complete?
I think the only non classic sci-fi series I can think of to recommend is the Lost Fleet series. It's not for everyone one though.
I am not sure if it's complete or not. I don't know too much about it, just that it was recommended to me and the premise sounds interesting.
Alright cool thanks, I have added that to my list as well.
