Currently rereading The Blade Itself by Joe Abercrombie, so I can then try Before They are Hanged. Also, so I can read this copy of Heroes I got on a whim. Abercrombie August.
Working my way through the novels set in the Eberron campaign setting from DnD, on the last series from the ones I have, on the second of four of the loosely connected by theme War-Torn series.
Halo: The Fall of Reach. I decided to finally play through all of the games so I purchased the Master Chief collection, played through Halo 1, then read an article detailing the full timeline of events. According to that, I have 3 books to read before I can get to Halo 2. Fall of Reach is the Master Chief’s origin story, while the next book is the novelization of Halo 1, and the third fills in the gap between Halo 1 and 2. Suffice to say, I’ve got a lot to read before I can get to Halo 2, lol. Fortunately, I love reading, so this should be fun.
Apparently 10 articles that appear on my Kbin homepage in just ONE scroll (None of this is just being exaggerated) about Trump being indicted for 2020 events. I am not subscribed/followed to any political user, magazine or community. Yes, this post was included in the scroll, found it to be pretty funny
Currently listening to the mountain man series. A zombie apocalypse story but very different than most. I’m very much enjoying it. These stories are free on audible plus.
I am currently reading, which I do at night when I’m in bed, quantum void, which is the sequel to quantum space. Which I am also very much enjoying. And they are on Kindle Plus. Or whatever it’s called.
I’m a bit of a sci-fi nerd. It’s almost all I read.
Currently reading Elantris by Brandon Sanderson. Picked it up a long time ago and never finished it. Had some time out at a cabin and picked it back up. Pretty good so far.
I’m working my way through Christopher Alexander’s The Nature of Order for a second time. It’s only slightly easier to get through this time though. Before that was the full run of The Wheel of Time by Robert Jordan (and Brandon Sanderson).
Sat at the library yesterday and read Open Borders by Bryan Caplan. He really breaks down how open borders benefit society from a capitalist perspective, but I find it helpful too. Anything to show others how closed borders are damaging, and how the idea of curbing immigration in America is rooted strictly in colonialism and racism.
The best part is I think it is presented in a very digestible, accessible way.
I’m very nearly done with ‘The Precipice’ by Ben Bova. Next is either ‘Rock Rats’ in the same series, or I start the Cosmere series by Brandon Sanderson. I’ve read all the Mistborn novels, and they’re fantastic.
Sanderson writes books faster than I can read, so it’s kind of daunting. Ben Bova is already dead, so I don’t have the same problem with him.
Currently, Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents for my audiobook and for my physical book its The Seven Moons of Maali Almeida. Both are excellent.
