I only recently discovered Adrian's books, they are amazing and the world building is fantastic

[@Jed_Herne]

I know!!! I've only read Children of Time and Children of Ruin, and I'm excited by how many other books he has for me to still discover :D. What's your fave out of his?

[@reznovhall9198]

@@Jed_Herne I only started reading his books 2 weeks ago, Children Of Time and Children Of Ruin. I started reading Dogs Of War Yesterday, which is fantastic. Your interview style is fantastic, I would love to read one of yours l, which would you recommend?

[@Jed_Herne]

@@reznovhall9198 nice! I'm keen to read Dogs of War soon as well :).
In terms of my own books, I'd recommend starting with The Thunder Heist - it's a fast-paced fantasy story about a pirate trying to steal a device that draws energy from lightning. You can check out the full details here: jedherne.com/thethunderheist - thanks for your interest!

Just finished my first book by Tchaikovsky, Elder Race. It was a quick read if you haven't checked it out. Great interview looking forward to more of his work.

That book is also a perfect example of creating a satisfying close to a strory that, at the same time, feels like just the beginning for the main characters. Just to add to what they where talking about at 8:00

@larswillems9886 great point. It ended but it could have just been beginning
