Great Nev. I love how you almost stocially keep on buying books, regardless of your shelf space, let alone your time to read all of them. I really want to start with Tad Williams as well. As soon as you've found a copy of Dragonbone Chair, let's team up for a buddy read...

[@NevsBookChannel]

Sounds like a plan!

[@OnlyTheBestFantasyNovels]

Cool stuff. Ancillary Justice was pretty interesting. I also need to check out some Tad Williams . . .

[@NevsBookChannel]

I only just found out it has sequels! Have you read them?

[@OnlyTheBestFantasyNovels]

@@NevsBookChannel Yea! They're decent. A lot of the award sweeping it did at the time was because of the way it plays with pronouns and has some cool worldbuilding ideas. Outside of that, they're fun SF stories to read.

@@OnlyTheBestFantasyNovels great! Thanks for the info!

I’ve picked up all those Tad William books too but haven’t read any yet. Heard mixed things about Otherland. I’ll probably start with Memory, Sorrow and Thorn

[@NevsBookChannel]

Same. Might be a while before I get to them

[@TheRedPolyhedral]

I've read all four books in Tad Williams' Memory, Sorrow and Thorn. In the edition I read, books 3 & 4 were tltled parts 1 & 2. They were long books as well, but certainly weren't overlong as they were full of action all the way through. I have books 1 & 2 of the Empire trilogy, but I've been looking for book 3 for a few years without success. Ancillary Justice is near the top of my TBR, but I suspect you'll read it before I do. You can't go wrong with the Lankhmar books, but I still find it hard to believe that there are fantasy readers who have never heard of them. People, eh? What are they teaching them in school these days? 😉😉

[@NevsBookChannel]

Heh. Truth. Thanks for commenting!

Contact Janny Wurts, she is very active on social media, she probably can help you get a copy of Mistress of the Empire… I think they were just released in special edition too.
