Finished off Theft of Swords, which was a nice easyread when I got going. Normal fantasy stuff, magic on the rare but not non-existent side, which is a good level imo. Starting on book two of the Ex- series Ex-Patriots, not groundbreaking but good enough I'll finish and continue on with it.
Ah, The Riyria Revelations, they are pretty highly regarded, at least I have seen them getting recommended a lot.
I have the Ex series on my wishlist for quite a while. How are you liking the overall series?
Riyria Revelations and all of the books in that world are honestly great. I've read all of them except the Chronicles prequels. Fully complete series with a cohesive world that spans thousands of years.
Also, the story of how the author and his wife got to where they are is heartwarming. The afterwords by his wife are good reads, as well.
Ahan, nice to know. They have been on my wishlist for a long while, should get to them soon-ish.
Ex-Patriots is book 2 of 5. It's not a mindblowing series, but the read is easy enough, and I got them all used so it's a good bit cheaper. If I bought them full priced I'd probably be a bit upset at present (though, again, 3 books still to read, my opinion may change based on those.).
Would love to hear your opinion about the next books.
