Weekly post was a bit irregular last few weeks, but we are back to Tuesday now.
Got back to reading, read a bit of Streams of Silver by R. A. Salvatore, also read a few hundred pages of different web novels.
What about all of you? What have you been reading or listening to lately?

I finished lightbringer about 2 weeks ago! All caught up until red god comes out. Overall I loved the series. I have to say, the second trilogy was much stronger than the first trilogy. I rather enjoyed the different narrators of iron gold and dark age, so was a bit disappointed when it went back to 1 for lightbringer, though it was still excellent
Since then I finally decided to start malazan. I’m most of the way through gardens of the moon, I think. It’s the complete main run as one big audiobook, so it’s a staggering 388 hours in total. So far I’m really enjoying it. It reminds me a bit of the black company
Lightbringer has 2 trilogies? Didn’t it have only 5 books? I gave up in middle of the third book, so maybe missed it.
Edit: I do think the books are much better starting at iron gold. I liked what came before, but at times I felt like the cliches and references were a bit much. In the second trilogy I thought that issue mostly dropped away, and that the author was more comfortable in the world he built
Also, I was listening to them instead of reading, I’ve heard complaints of overly short sentence structure in the first/first few books, but the narrator smoothed over that issue gif me it seems
