Nowadays I don’t really have any authors or book series like this. As I kid I used to get really excited for a new Series of Unfortunate Events or Alex Rider book. For a while I kept my eye on Adrian Tchaikovsky, but lately I’ve found some of his novels to be hit or miss.
The only book release I’m currently looking forward to is Brigands & Breadknives in the Legends & Lattes series by Travis Baldree. The other two books have been cosy and wholesome, and it’s become a little tradition of mine to read these books around Christmas.
Alastair Reynolds don’t necessarily buy everything but if I saw something that I haven’t read from him it’s an automatic « stop everything and find a way to read it as quickly as possible »
Is there a particular book you’d recommend for someone wanting to try him out? Maybe a standalone one.
I liked Eversion… but one of my friend didn’t so maybe not this one
There’s a standalone in his Revelation Space Trilogy: Chasm City that I find particularly telling about his writing style
Or maybe House of Suns
Chasm City was amazing. I really need to read House of Suns, don’t I.
Revengers was nice too, but very different
House of Suns is something else but I quite enjoy it. The reason why a galaxy disappear in the sky is 👌
Revengers ?
