[QUOTE="gban007, post: 9753571, member: 56488"] Bit of an update on some books read ? (Not going well on keeping things updated, my goodreads updates have been poor this year, maybe only 20% of books read). Finished the Fifth Season, a strong book that has led to me already starting the next one. Quite a bleak world/ cultures, especially for people like the main characters, but a lot of mystery and suspense throughout. Can't say too much for fear of spoilers, but am curious to see a TTRPG coming out for it, not necessarily a world I would have thought that would be good for, but when I think about it it has similar beats to what I understand of Dark Sun. Before that read Station Eleven, another one I enjoyed that was perhaps somewhat melancholy in nature, though what I didnt like was it being centered around probably the least interesting character in the novel for me. Thanks to [USER=6671663]@Autumnal[/USER] for Forge of God suggestion, was a good end of the world novel, albeit the general reaction by the characters in it was more resigned / accepting than id think it would likely go down, albeit events at the beginning probably helped lead to that. Contrasts to the Three Body Problem series where problem was almost the reverse, people were scared and angry, but as a whole seemed to want go prevent anyone escaping if everyone couldn't escape.
