I haven't read anything recently. I think the last new book I read was Oathbreaker. Eagerly awaiting the next Mistborn book. I mostly wanted to comment to say that I love Old Man's War, but so far none of the other books in the series can hold a candle to it

The whole UNIVERSE is so thick in lore and backstory, even the not so good but good because they are in the Dune Universe novels like the Butlerian Jihad are ... wow. And the Bene Gesserit and the Reverend Maters war, the Tleilaxu, the Ixians, the Navigators, wow, so much stuff in a novel and universe! Re read it and enjoy it! One of the few universes I have tried to gather as much stuff as I can in RPG format as well. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Someone mentioned the Licanius Trilogy, I liked the first two books. Enjoyed the Malazan series, although sometimes it was just way too over the top for me, I liked a lot of the characters though. Ravens shadow series was ok, last two books a little of a let down. Stormlight archive has held my interest.
I was going through a ton of audio books for a while, but currently trying to finish The Brothers Karamazov and I think it kind of killed my momentum hah. Also trying to go through the cycle of arawn. I, Claudius, American Gods, Never Split the Difference, Lawrence in Arabia were other books I liked recently. | ||

I finished Foundation I and I understand what people like, but also find it dull. It's like the Simarilion, but with no interesting attached stories. Also psychohistory is hard to swallow. It's like mega-sociology, but with math and stuff I guess. And that's the whole premise the story leans on to work.

I just finished reading Forever War and was pleasantly surprised, I might be coming late to it, but honestly my backlog of anything good to read is too big, starting Forever Peace now. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] I only decided to start reading in earnest in english a few years ago when I got a kindle and well, if my exile has worked for anything good in my life is giving me ample time to read and surf the net finding books. This thread has helped me add some interesting books to my queue which slowly grows bigger every day. Also I have to confess to everybody here CALIBRE is like ... wow, so amazing. https://calibre-ebook.com/ I heartily recommend it to everybody , its so simple to organize your virtual library, have a backlog of over 300 books, and I go through only a handful of books per monthso it keeps growing bigger. Glad to see fellow readers here [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
