Zaine Posted July 27 Share Posted July 27 Elantris by Brandon Sanderson.alsoThe Language of the Night by Ursula K. Le GuinI enjoyed Elantris, but you can tell it's one of his earlier (published) works. His writing has definitely evolved and improved over the years. I've only read the four Earthsea books by Le Guin; how is The Language of the Night?That was the impression I got as well. It wasn't bad, just unpolished.The Le Guin book is a collection of essays and speeches she gave on literary criticism. I think it's great, but dry and specialized. If you're interested in criticisms of the treatment of SF/F books and the like, it's awesome.

DarthPenguin Posted July 29 Share Posted July 29 I just finished "in the shadow of kings" by Phillip Quantrill. Really enjoyed it. If you like fantasy novels his Echoes series is superb (this is a prequel series).Just started on one of the few Steve McHugh books i haven't read (the vampire one) - it has become quite obvious now though that the protagonist in his varying series is just the same character by a different name: Nate Garrett from the Hellequin books (which i enjoyed) is just Lucas Rurik (from the Riftborn books) is just Miles Watson. That is getting slightly old in this one so i will see how i go with it.Recently finished the 'wizardoms' books too which were an entertaining read Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might be worth looking into.I am not far enough into it yet to have an opinion, but it has been on my bookshelf for a while, so I decided it was time to read it. So many books and not enough time.

Unfortunately, I'm reading the history section right now, which is usually painful in a TKD text.

Short answer, it isn't. https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
