How are you liking the series? I haven't read Rhythm of War. By the time I got around to it, I realised I am going to have to re-read the whole series when the 5th one comes out, so didn't start it. Going to start the re-read next year, and will read it then.

At least this would let them temper their expectations. ๐Ÿ˜€

I just finished Project Hail Mary yesterday. Loved the book!

That's an interesting list. Thanks for your input.

D2 is probably one of my favourite game ever. I have played D3, and beta of D4, and while I liked D4 a lot, it doesn't come close to what D2 was.

I can understand the feeling, sometimes you just aren't in the mood for something. In my opinion, it's completely fine to leave it, you can always come back to it later, if you are in the mood, or not, nothing wrong with either. Life is too short, and there are enough books and tv/movies out there that we will never run out. So, why waste time on something that we aren't fully enjoying?

I recently got Chronicles of The Black Company. It the omnibus edition and has first three novels. Haven't started it yet though.

Diablo 4 is great, how are you liking the first season? I have heard conflicting views on that.

As for Star Trek, that's a big undertaking. I started with the published order (my choice of order, in pretty much all media forms) a long time ago. The original, than the next generation, gave up somewhere in the middle of DS9. Haven't seen anything after that (except for the new one they did couple of years back, watched 2-3 episodes), but I have been getting an itch for some nice alien show recently, and since I can't find anything good, may just resume DS9 from start.

The Golem and the Jinni sounds nice. Would love to hear what you think of it once you have finished it.

First Law Trilogy is one of the best series that I hated ๐Ÿ˜€

I don't like grimdark, I want more of "good guy beat bad guy, and they lived happily ever after". Okay, not entirely true, but you get my point. So, while I didn't like the story, or the characters, it was a really good series. I have read the main trilogy and the standalone Best Served Cold, planning the get The Heroes sometimes. When I need a dose of grimdark.

How is Prince of Nothing? Is it also grimdark? Would you recommend for something who generally doesn't like grimdark, but would still read it if it's a really well written book?

Heh, that is most probably true. On reddit, I too was subscribed to both bullet journal and fountain pens subs. Though, haven't joined it here (yet), it is not a healthy community for your wallet. ๐Ÿ˜€

I have more inks that I'll probably use in next decade, don't have enough pens though... also missing a few colours in ink...

How is it, if read as a parenting-guide?

[-] dresden@discuss.online 2 points 1 year ago

This sounds interesting. Will check it out.

I am actually up for some Zombie novels, which ones do you think are some of the best?
