The Blade Itself by Joe Abercrombie
review

Prince of Thorns | Mark Lawrence
Pickpick

I'd heard many things about this book but I let my distance from any spoilers.

It's the first fantasy book that I can honestly say I've loved.

I've read a lot of fantasy, but Prince of Thorns is my favorite so far.

I'll read anything Mark Lawrence writes after this one!

The Magic of Recluce | L. E. Modesitt, Jr.

I wish I'd have read this when I was younger. At 40 this book brings me back to my first forays into fantasy.

This is the first book I've read of L. E. Modesty, Jr, but it will not be the last.

Magician Apprentice | Raymond E Feist

I was looking for a new book and found this in a list of great fantasy and it was at my local library. I really enjoyed this book and will look for the rest of the series at my library.

Mehso-so

For all that is said about this book, I thought I'd enjoy it more.

Stephanie-Anne Agreed! It's a book I'm glad to have read, but I don't think about it anymore. 😕 8y

Started this based on Neil Gaiman talking about it in his new non-fiction book. I found it at my local library.

I'm reading Neil Gaiman's book, "A View from the Cheap Seats."

It's a collection of nonfictiony stuff he's written over the years.

This was on one of the pages and it's stuck with me.

I'm only halfway through and I'm enjoying it nearly as much as I did Sandman.

I finished the first book in the series in a week. I've been reading this for a couple weeks now.
