I love books recommended on here but unless I specify you mfs will recommend theory. You all read anything captivating without overt political themes?

The Name of the Wind is an incredibly well-written fantasy book!

It's also an incredibly unfinished series. Also the second one lays it on a bit thick.

Fuck really, I just finished the first

Sorry. I finished what was written over a decade ago. Like GRRM he occasionally releases a chapter of the last book but it's very unlikely he'll finish it.

It got so bad that his editor actually made a statement about how they had no idea what was going on.

Dang, at least I'm just getting back into Brando sando after reading the mistborn trilogy as a child
