    Reading the first book of the Lyonesse trilogy again. I’ve always had a soft spot for these books.
    There’s a certain fairytale atmosphere to them that just feels very… cozy I guess.

    Right now it’s We Are Legion (We Are Bob). I’d avoided it for a long time based on the name, but it turns out that was unfair. It’s been a great read.

    Before that, Elder Race and Spiderlight by Adrian Tchaikovsky. If you haven’t read any of his work yet, do yourself a favor. He’s easily one of my favorite authors these days.

    The Heroes by Joe Abercrombie.

    Always love how well everything is tied into his universe together whilst simultaneously telling a unique and independent story.

      Ooh, that’s a good one. One of the books used to introduce Banks to me, a while back.

    Not at the moment, no.

    Edit: Smartass mode off. Currently reading Death From The Skies by Phil Plait, and the occasional Ray Bradbury short story when I need a ‘snack’ before bed.

    Assassins apprentice, the first in the Farseer trilogy by Robin Hobb. About two thirds of the way through, it’s been a gripping read.

    I just finished the Moon of the Crusted Snow by Waubgeshig Rice. It was really good. Trying to figure out what to read next.
