Does not suffer from the second volume slump many trilogies do. I was hooked again from chapter one and loved how the characters developed and grew. There are also some important political messages to be found, but only if you're aware of it. As a youth I would have just read it as a good fantasy novel, but as a grown-up I saw a lot more in this story.

I‘m posting one book a day from my massive collection. No description, no reason for why I want to read it.

Happy Pride Month everyone! 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

The tagged book is my choice for June‘s #QueerBC and I can‘t wait to get to it. I‘ve loved everything else I‘ve read by Zen Cho, although this looks pretty different.

#SundayFunday Hope you all have a safe and wonderful day, and don‘t forget to tag me!

julesG It's good, if a bit weird. I truly enjoyed it. 5d

51/100 I know it's an old saying, but honestly, I could listen to Stephen Fry read a phone book, if they still existed. His narration really brings the story of Odessus to life, it's often quite funny when it's not being tragic, as Odessus has one misadventure after another, both helped and hindered by the various gods of Olympus. I know this is the last book of his Greek Mythology series, but I love to see him tackle Norse mythology. 5 🌟 read

dabbe I just started reading MYTHOS. I'm thinking I need to listen to it, instead. I love Stephen Fry! 💚💜💚 2w
RamsFan1963 He has an amazing voice, and I love his characterization of Zeus, the most harassed father in history, always having his children pestering him for favors or to clean up messes they've mad in the mortal world. 2w

4✨ I read this a while ago, but never got to review it. The world building of breath, color, and gods was beautifully written. Vivenna was not my favorite, but I appreciate an outside look at what was happening in the castle. The god king and Siri was my favorite POV and I was rooting for them the whole time. Lightsong brought a lot of humor to the book, and the ending for him was unexpected, but much appreciated!

Oh Boy! Oh Boy! Oh Boy! I did not know that Stephen Fry had a 4th book in the Greek Mythology series. I need to finish my current audiobook so I can get to this. I know it's going to be another winner. #SeriesLove2025

This is lovely in so many ways. I don't quite know why I kept stalling with it.

Here's my endorsement: I settled down to read a bit, with 115 pages left. I was cross-legged on the floor. By my wife's account, I then barely even shifted for 40 minutes -- until I'd finished the book.

At that point I remembered I'm 35 and shouldn't sit like that without moving for even 10 minutes, let alone 40. Ow!!!

I found a crossover! The storyteller that gives Siri (and us) the entire backstory to the realm. The name was nagging at me. The passage in the photo might not refer to events in The Final Empire, but there is a Hoid there. (Reading on kindle can be handy. I did a search on his name in the books.) He's the beggar-informer in book 1 who makes Kelsier angry enough to reveal more than he intended. And I think the one Vin decided not to approach in 3

JacqMac That is a great find! I didn‘t notice it. I think I have to pay more attention. Lol 4w
julesG Hoid pops up a lot. 😉 And that's from me who got a lot of background info from friends who love the series, but I DNF'd the first book. 😬 4w
Meshell1313 Oooh wow! Fabulous!!!! 4w
