Weekly post was a bit irregular last few weeks, but we are back to Tuesday now.

Got back to reading, read a bit of Streams of Silver by R. A. Salvatore, also read a few hundred pages of different web novels.

What about all of you? What have you been reading or listening to lately?

  1. Red rising
  2. Golden Son
  3. Morningstar
  4. Iron gold
  5. Dark age
  6. Lightbringer
  7. Red God (2026)

Edit: I do think the books are much better starting at iron gold. I liked what came before, but at times I felt like the cliches and references were a bit much. In the second trilogy I thought that issue mostly dropped away, and that the author was more comfortable in the world he built

Also, I was listening to them instead of reading, I’ve heard complaints of overly short sentence structure in the first/first few books, but the narrator smoothed over that issue gif me it seems
