Scott  Hitchcock (lostinthewarrenofchaos) | 443 comments POF is my next audio book which constitutes about a quarter of my reading. The narrator is excellent and TEB grew on me and got much better in the second half.

Jenna Kathleen (jennakathleen) What did you think of Brian Staveley's series, Mike?


message 4: by Mike (new)

Mike (mtaute) Tough to comment without spoilers! That being said, I enjoyed the series quite a bit. I just finished The Last Mortal Bond a few minutes ago, actually.

The first book was one of the best I'd read in awhile, so much fun! I found myself wanting an entire book about the Kettral. The second and third book had moments of brilliance but nothing like The Emperor's blades. Overall I'd give the series 4/5 stars.

Nice! I read the first one but found I only liked one of the main characters. The other two were so boring so I decided not to continue the series. Glad you enjoyed it, though!

Mike (mtaute) This is tougher than I thought it would be. Since I started this challenge I have read
Providence of Fire (Brian Staveley)
Last Mortal Bond (Brian Staveley)
Daemon (Daniel Suarez)
The Way of Kings (Brandon Sanderson)

Apparently everything I read is by an "S" author!

Scott  Hitchcock (lostinthewarrenofchaos) | 443 comments LOL. I keep track of everything I've read since I started and I have 8 Erikson books alone! I just keep filtering in a book or two per month with the specific purpose of getting through it while reading something I would have otherwise.

Yeah, it's tough to complete the alphabet when you read a series!


Brenda ╰☆╮    (brnda) | 1494 comments I was going to suggest that you use their first name.
8/
It seems.............. you also like first names with B's!

Margret I'm tempted to tally all my letters now, I've read/listened to 78 books though this year so I think people may get irritated if I listed them all

78! Impressive!


message 12: by Margret (new)

Margret I was off on medical leave before baby, plus working night shifts I tend to read a lot on my breaks. But mostly it's the audiobooks that gets your numbers up!

Go for it. I did mine, letter counts, but I'm toying with writing them all.
