    Aside from the current book of the month, which I'm almost done 😊, I'm working on this newest addition to the Lorien Legacies series

    But...but...we're only a few days into the month!!! You need to slow down, dude... 😛

    This could turn into a very long list if I had my way. 

     

    I've read most of the suggestions here, so I know I'm in good company. I do actually think that Le Guin would be a wonderful "group" focus: she's just such a great writer, and her style and ideas hold strong so many years later. If we are all heading to Earthsea -- so be it!

     

    I have read more science fiction than fantasy in the last 5 years, but I would be remiss to not mention Patrick Rothfuss's The Name of the Wind (which you should all read before it gets turned into an HBO series or movie or whatever -- Sam Raimi's directing, is all I know). The only challenge with this one is that it's a wee bit long. 

     

    But my absolute favourite "fantasy" books in recent years have been by China Mieville -- specifically, Perdido Street Station. Now, you could call his works fantasy or steampunk or slipstream, but it doesn't matter, because they're amazing and you should all read them. 

     

     

    I love the idea of reading the Patrick Rothfuss books! Not only because I own the first two, already, but because I haven't really read them and would totally like to! lol

    Here's a photo of my living room bookshelves from December. This photo does NOT include my nerd-books -- I have as many (if not more) in a disordered mess of 3 shelves in my office upstairs. My wife won't let me keep them in the downstairs area -- APPARENTLY not everyone finds my tastes in literature as "acceptable" as I do.

    We're definitely going to need to see a picture of those "nerd" books! Like...right now. 😛

     

    p.s. That's a cute dog.

    Please post a picture of your precious books. Luckily I moved into a new place recently and we just set up our bookshelf 😉

    I like the bottom row the best...because COMIC BOOKS! :D

    Also, I'll post a picture of my bedside chair (at a later date) to prove how much of a scatter-brain I am with books...

  5. Has anyone read the "Deed of Paksennarion" series by Elizabeth Moon? I've only recently found out about her books, and I am completely in love with them! I've never been one for reading about military anything, but I have really enjoyed reading the story of Paksennarion ("Paks" for short) and her epic adventure in joining a mercenary company. The books are far more than just her time spent in the mercenaries army, though. The books encompass her entire life. I am truly baffled at how Elizabeth Moon managed to tell all these various tales of Paks' life, without it being pedantic.

     

    Have any of you read this series? :)
