Glad you liked it! Warhost of Vastmark is one of the best in the series. You're in for a treat!

This is a series I need to continue. I enjoyed it overall

I keep seeing Dreamer’s Pool at my local used bookstore. Now I want to pick it up.

Great review.😊 I wanted to read this book for February, but there are 73 other people before me on the Libby App. So I guess I won't get to it until July. 😂

Great video Rabin! I got the Wars of Light and Shadow for Christmas and am going to start reading them this year. I’m very excited. Dandelion Dynasty is also an all time favorite series. Hope you enjoy the rest of your day!

Great video Rabin! I just found your channel. Looks like you had some great reads last year. Hope you enjoy the rest of your day!

Nice list!

Great list, Rabin! This video has increased my Amazon wishlist with about 10 books (Juliet Marillier and Katherine Arden and more). You get more enthusiastic with each new series you talk about ;-)

Added a few of these to my TBR, glad to see stuff outside of the usual highlights!

Nightingale is so good and underrated!

So glad to see Paksenarrion on this list!! I really need to get back into Benedict Jacka's UF too!

I really enjoyed The Burning a few years ago. Been so long I don't remember the 2nd book very well at all though. Hurray for Sarantine Mosaic! Oh we're on the same page regarding Wars of Light & Shadow!!! I'm on Book 4 and its great so far, but very much a mood read for me. I've 1 book left of Dandelion Dynasty. Liu really has crafted a masterpiece. Wall of Storms alone is beyond words. Yes, its like seeing a pig fly!!! Only series I read last year were: Liveship Traders (the last 2 books), Tawny Man (my favourite of the RotE subseries), Rain Wild Chronicles, Fitz & the Fool, Books 2 and 3 of Memory Sorrow & Thorn, first three bolks of Wars of Light & Shadow and my re-read of Prince of Nothing.

I read Nevernight and loved it. But I did not go for Kristoff's Vampire book. I'm just not that big a vampire fan that I needed it.

I still got to get to the sword of Kaigen but when you said “gormenghast inspired” for your top pick the west passage my ear perked up. I’ll add it to the list

You should reread Jade City after this

I ordered the broken binding version. Cant wait!

This sounds so cool!

This book elevated the tension and I loved it!!!

I can't wait to read Grave Empire. The Empire of the Wolf trilogy is one of my favorite fantasy series. I am glad this one seems to be great as well.

Yep, I'm really happy I started this trilogy. Paksenarrion is definitely one of my favorite characters in fantasy now. This book was a great if painful at times ride but it brought every wave of emotion that a strong piece of work can do.

This sounds very interesting and cool. I need to find a copy! Thanks for another great recommendation!

I almost picked up a copy of this a few months ago. (it was in rough shape) I will be keeping an eye out for another copy!

this falls into a favorite read category.

Are the similarities to Psalm for the Wild-Built just surface-level? From your description it feels like it's deliberately trying to follow it, or maybe respond. Both are "cozy"/small stakes, both have a protagonist who has an interpersonal job (ritualistically serving tea, telling fortunes), and travels around in a wagon.

This one is on my TBR as well and I've been so happy to see it getting positive reviews.

I have five other books of her to read before getting to this 'piece de resistance'. Thanks for you enthusiasm. It's contagious.

I am usually a plot-focused reader - but I LOVED the first law world! All the characters were great and terrible :D

Great review. This is on my TBR but it looks like it will be a while until I get to it as there is a giant hold list on the Libby App for both the e-Book and the audiobook. 😊

This one has become popular, just like The Spell Shop. It's on my TBR but it will be awhile before I read it.

My husbands writing a cozy fantasy, I’ll send him this review for inspiration

Glad you enjoyed this one! Crazy thing is this is my least favorite of the three Ive read. Each book has gotten better.

Read the Empire of the Wolf series and was mesmerized! The world building and unexpected twists were captivating. Cannot wait to dive into this book that I believe takes place before The Empire of the Wolf series.

I just finished the book yesterday. It was jarring to meet Lowry but by the last scene I came to understand him and wondered if he ever truly made it home. I appreciate the varying perspectives of area x and its origin story and by the end of absolution I now have some sense of compassion for the source that area x came from. Area X is as powerless as the expedition. As desperate to be understood and perceived. I would welcome a book 5.

You got a haircut!

Just finished this book, and yea brutal is the right word, but I really felt like the themes depicted here are still relevant and were tackled in a poignant way

I keep hearing great things about Richard swan I really need you to read some of his works this year! Great review my friend

I plan on reading Richard Swan this year. I was already interested in the books and then I saw that he painted Warhammer minis so I now feel obligated to help someone else pay for their plastic crack 🤣. Another great review!

So many books Ive not heard on this list. Im going to have to step up my reading game

Oh man only adding to my Janny Wurts fomo! Love hearing such a rave review about a bk 1

This was already on my TBR but it has now shot up the list! Great review!

One of my favourite series of all time 🎉

*adds to TBR after Dresden

Great review! So glad to have another reader in this wonderful world. On Book 8 now and still enjoying it just as much as when I started. Cheers!

Great review! I'm looking forward to starting this series this month. I'm wrapping up reading Mistborn book 1, then I'll be jumping into this one.

Wow! You’ve known about this series for a much longer time than most of BookTube! That was very well said about the story flowing from Arithon and Lysaer’s interaction and core traits. Glad you’re enjoying the series so far!

Nice to get your thoughts on this one

Great review. This book sounds very interesting. :)

I'm part way through the 4th novel, this series really is exceptional. Curse of the Mistwraith is one of the best starts to a Fantasy series I've read!

I am so happy to hear you enjoyed this! I bought the series and plan to read it this year. I am super hyped now to read this. Great video my friend

The Crown of Stars series is a. COMMITMENT! It's very long and a bit up and down in quality. I found it hard to get through but also I'm glad I made the effort :) hopefully you'll like it!
