  • Great series that looks like will never get finished. I've been waiting for years for the follow-up to Dance of Dragons. In fact, it's this author that has made me wait until a series is fucking complete before I pick up to read it.

    • Yea, I am kind of sorry I got into Name of the Wind, the second book is coming March but it's already 2 years behind. 3 more books? Not fucking likely for Martin unless the reason this is taking forever is he is doing them all and releasing them bam bam bam one after another.

      • Started Feast For Crows last night. Holy shit the epilogue of book 3 though.

        • It's an ok book, but it's half a book, sadly... Jaime Lannister rocks though...

          • And I loved The Name of the Wind way more than I expected.

            But the one true great book for me beside the Malazan books is The Lies of Locke Lamora. Holy shit do I love this. Ocean's 11 meet fantasy.

            • Really love Name of the Wind, so much.

              Jamie has become great since his..lessening. Tyrion remains my favorite though.

              • Tyrion is so great in every books. And I like Snow too.

                Have you seen the HBO previews? Staggering...

                Tried Lamora?

                • Done with The Way of Kings. Not bad at all. It's like Sanderson's going for a Malazan run of 10 books, which he is. However, 70% of the book is a setup for the great last 30%. It's a bit long to begin, but those last 200 pages are great.

                  Now, the Crippled God...

                    • And Then We Came to the End by Josh Ferris.

                      Interoffice politics, relationships, and the minutiae of what happens to a small group of advertisers as their firm begins to migrate toward nonexistence.

                      The most interesting guy in the book has already left the firm at the point I currently find myself, and yet the interest in everything--however boring in real life--remains.

                            • Got the new Rothfuss book from Amazon yesterday. Haven't even opened the box, because I want to finish Feast For Crows first.

                              • I've been reading One L by Scott Turow, which is a diary of his first year at Harvard Law School. I learned that I was right to have never EVER gone to law school.
