Science Fiction

I am rereading Malazan Book of the Fallen. Just started the fourth book, House of Chains.

The start of this book is the hardest for me to get through. The first couple of chapters are really boring to me and it's only after

Karsa is captured and Torvald Nom is introduced

that I start getting into the story. The rest of the book is phenomenal, of course.

Edit: damn, is there no other spoiler option that just greys out the words? Edit2: Geez, I only just now realize this is not c/books but c/sciencefiction. Sorry if this post doesn't belong here then, haha.

Terry Pratchett's books on Discworld 📖

Re-reading Ready Player One. I want to forget how bad the sequel is and how they butchered all character development at the beginning of the book.

I'm currently reading American Psycho and The Two Towers. Both can be slow at times, so it's nice to be able to read one of them and when it gets boring read the other one

I just started reading "The Curse of Chalion" bu Lois McMaster Bujold, following a rather specific fantasy itch that was most recently scratched by "The Goblin Emperor" (by Sarah Monette) and before that by the Valdemar series, particularly the Arrows of the Queen and Winds of Fate series. I hope it delivers!

I'm working my way through the Red Rising series. Very interesting plot and lovable characters. Brutal violence though.

I bought the two Asimov sets of the Robot books and Foundation books, but still need to finish The Stranger Times (Urban fantasy) before delving into that. Read The Eyes of the Void by Adrian Tchaikovsky before that.

I'm reading Thrawn: Traitor (Thrawn Canon books #3). Not the greatest series I've ever read by any means but I need a break from the Stormlight Archives Ave my library had no wait on these.

I'm reading the "Starship's mage" series by Glynn Stewart, really fun boks, and still after having read 14 books it's still really a fun read :)

I forgot I read Wool, that was a good book! Currently reading nonfiction (Outlive by Peter Attia) but recently read Axiom's End and enjoyed it.

I know I'm late to reading them and I'm not sure if graphic novels count here, but "kill six billion demons" is a fantastic series with a unique art style and direction that I genuinely cannot get enough of

Though it might be more science fantasy than science fiction I guess?

More fantasy, but reading the Abhorson series by Garth Nix. Excellent series.

I just grabbed Kurtz Vonnegut's Welcome to the Monkeyhouse and Palm Sunday and it's pretty cool.

I am working my way through Flow My Tears, the Policeman Said by Philip K. Dick. It's not a long book but it's really slow going, it's just so friggin weird that I have to put it down every few pages and just stop to absorb whatever the heck it was I just read. It's neat, as a drug user myself, to read a passage where it seems normal and then just randomly goes off into a 3 page rant about his weird racial ideas, and I just know he took a big fat hit right there writing it, sometime before I was born.
