Hey, this is a continuation of the topic from this thread here.
I thought I’d continue this now that we’re a much bigger community.
I recently started a full collection (by Delphi Classics) of Edgar Allan Poe’s works. I’m still near the start (because it is a large collection of his entire repertoire).
And, on that note, I’m still going through Ambrose Bierce’s repertoire of novels, short stories, etc. (I think the collection I’m going through is also Delphi Classics).
I’ve also started Romance of the Three Kingdoms (of the recent English translation), specifically its first volume.
I kinda stalled on the two other novels a mentioned last time (Acceptance by Jeff VanderMeer and Book 2 of the Three-Body Problem series by Liu Cixin).
So, basically, I made more progress on the long-ass collection of Poe and Bierce’s entire list of works than I have for the two novels that I could probably get through in a day for both. 😅 But I don’t mind, tbh. I read a lot of good non-fiction books on the side and finished them (though we’re here to talk about specifically fiction in this thread). So it’s all good. Hell, I’m actually going to take a brief break from non-fiction to more “lighter” fictional works. I may start the next The High Republic novel next (the recent one in the spinoff series of novels that came out for the Star Wars EU under Disney about a year ago, I think). In addition, I’m still almost done with VanderMeer and Cixin’s work respectively so I’ll wrap them up and pick one more book (I… kinda have an itch to essentially read 6 fictional books at once, but mostly, I’m going to use the month to de-stress just in case I may need it; not because I recently got stress, but simply to be careful).
Not sure what else to say.
What are you reading in terms of fiction?
What will you read next?
Anything you like in particular?
Anything you didn’t really care for that much?
Discuss all that and more so long as it has to do with written fiction or anything related to it.
👍👍
There are a lot but they’re all little series just set in the same universe. I’m reading the night watch series atm. You can google Sam Vimes for the wiki which has his works in the right order. They’re all re-readable and the community has remained pretty great. I’d recommend audiobooks for the first time since until you know his style it can be hard to get to his level of silly in your own head lol
Right, understood.
