If you didn’t know, the Korean gumiho (구미호, meaning nine tailed fox) is similar to the Japanese kitsune (狐 / きつね the Japanese word for fox, but is often translated as fox spirit) and the Chinese Huli jīng (狐狸精, meaning fox essence). There’s a lot of conflicting information on their similarities and differences, whether they shapeshift, the number of tails, etc, but definitely worth reading up on nonetheless if you’re interested in Asian mythology and folklore and are having a hard time (like me) finding good books that include those topics
I absolutely loved The Familiar, actually, and was sad that others haven't felt the same. I hope you like it when you read it! There was just something so beautiful about the story and it felt really unique - I've never read something like it before and her writing was excellent, as always.
lol the puppy looked like he got insulted by what you said and left
I actually really enjoyed the familiar. Went in with no expectations but also know the general feeling was disappointed but I was so pleasantly surprised
The Art posters are gorgeous! I’m waiting on The Fury of the Gods also, and I agree, that ending😳.
I loved The City of brass 🩵🩵🩵🩵🌞🌞🌞📚📚🩵📙🌊🌊📙🩵📚🩵🌺🌺🩵📚📚🩵🩵📙🌺🌊🌺📖📖🌞🌞🌞🌞📚📚📙🌺🌊📙🩵📚📚📚📚📚🩵📙🌊🌊🌺🌺🩵📚🌞🌞📖📖
I wasn't going to read more Durst, because unfortunately I couldn't get through Spellshop even though I wanted to love it, but after you so highly recommended her other works I've really enjoyed The Bone Maker and Queen of Blood! Also reading her authors note was interesting, she grew up reading a lot of the same authors I did! So her and I seem to have similar taste, and I'm glad I tried her other books!
I recently finished Kingdom of Copper, LOVED it! Even more than The Brass City.
Halfway through A Sorceress Comes to Call and it’s fantastic! Definitely matching Nettle and Bone for me, though it is missing a bone dog ❤
I'm reading A Sorceress Comes to Call and I definitely think it's the next Nettle and Bone.
Ditto on the City of Brass. I read that and loved it --- but got stuck when I started book two. I just started re-reading City of Brass.
I LOVE the posters! They are gorgeous! My kids and I are HUGE BOTW and TOTK fans (And I LOVE LOTR) so I'll definitely be placing an order!
Excited to read a sorcerer comes to call too! Loved nettle and bone and kingfisher has that specific tone that makes it a good fall read
I'm reading The Phoenix Keeper now, through Libby. Only a couple chapters in but it's cute so far! I also have a hold that will be available soon for Bonesmith as I'm really interested in that duology.
The closet nook looks so great!
Dutton! Luna! 🐶. Cuteness ♥️♥️

Not spoiling it, just saying: As to "the Lost Story", not Peter Pan inspired, but another well known and well loved fantasy story. I want to pick this one up asap too. Your recommendation "made" me pick up "The Wishing Game" last year and I also found it to be so wholesome and cute 😄
I definitely need to continue the Mages of the Wheel series!
I read the whole locked tomb seriers this last month and a half and I will never be the same again. I was so depressed after finishing a series, I felt like nothing would ever compare (which might be true). I hope you will love those books as much as I did!
I absolutely love The Lost Story! Just got A Sorceress Comes to Call…can’t wait to read it!
I've gotten some arcs for some of these.
You'll love A Sorceress Comes to call. It's definitely got T kingfishers signature vibes (not like in a derivative way, but like you said she's got a distinct style. In a good way) so I don't think you will be disappointed.
How to Become the Dark Lord and Die Trying is a but polarizing. I found it absolutely hysterical and hilarious and loved it so much. But it's very dark humor and super snarky, so I'm sure that turns a lot of people off to it. Honestly, Davi gives me kinda Deadpool vibes. She's a smart Alek and always has some stupid random comments. If you like that humor, you'll love the book. If not, you'll struggle with it.
The Phoenix Keeper is maybe my fave book of this year (or maybe Dark Lord, idk). The zoo and magical creatures are everything you want. Haha. I mean I could use a lot more of them (even though most of the book is them doing their daily tasks and talking or getting the Phoenix breeding program ready to go), but I think you'll love Archie and Khonsu and their adorable antics. The romance part was meh, but the zoo parts are so good I wasn't bothered.
Dead Cat Tail Assassins I think you'll like it you like Clarks other work. He's got cool, unique worlds and he writes kick butt women. There's snark. It's a little weird (can't get into how without spoilers and ruining things) and there are some things I typically don't like (though it worked here), but overall it's good.
great reviews and comments!
I just read The Lost Story, and I loved it! It's not quite Peter Pan, but it definitely has fantasy and I think you'll like it!
Hello Elliot, I only recently stumbled upon and subscribed to your channel but I am already looking forward to your next reads and reviews☺️ I am also a fantasy fan and I think your channel covers this genre the best. Also good luck with your book and I keep my fingers crossed that your mom’s dog behaves well. As an animal lover I find it lovely you are going to spend time taking care of him despite your own plans. Whenever you’re back we’re here🫶🏻🤗
halfway thru Django Wexler's Ashes of the Sun. I like it. I'd say character based writing style is in this book.
DUTTON IS A SWEET ANGEL 🥹
Great Video!
I am so excited that you will read Foul Days! I hope you will like it ^^
I think that the thing that makes John Gwynn’s books inclusive to people scared of epic fantasy is he gives previous book summaries.
Why is this not a standard!?
I like your hair. Is it purple or is that just the lighting?
Great haul.
I have read Django Wexler's Burningblade & Silvereye trilogy and really enjoyed it, he has really easy to read prose and fun dialogue. i've also read book 1 of the middle grade Forbidden Library series some time ago and enjoyed that one too, had intended to continue it. I bought the Dark Lord book and intend to get to it at some point soon. Although that's all I've read of his so far, I personally think he should be talked about more!
I read the Dark Lord book and it was a miss for me. I hugely enjoyed the Burningblade & Silvereye trilogy, but the new book didn't work for me. Your mileage may vary.
@@jgrosenblum Ah that's a shame, thanks. I won't place too high an expectation on it then!
I finished Ghostsmith yesterday and loved it more than Bonesmith.
❤📚❤ I've added Race the Sands to my list. Thanks!
I will be reading Poison in Their Hearts by Laura Sebastian in September. The last book in The Castles in Their Bones Trilogy.
Wondered if there going to make a Hollow Cocoon book (it's great/mystery game)
The lost story is truly Amazing. I think you’ll like it
I liked A Sorceress Comes To Call !
I’ll be very curious to hear your thoughts on How to Become the Dark Lord and Die Trying. It was one of my most anticipated books for this year and ended up being a major letdown, but I know everyone has a different reaction to books.
Another Sarah Beth Durst book! Immediate buy
I just read The Lost Story and it was so good! It's not Peter Pan inspired though
As a person who has read The God and the Gumiho, I still can't really say what genre it is. I think it would fall into YA much better, but the murder mystery aspect of it makes it impossible to categorize it as such (there is some gore). It's very mythology-inspired obviously, so we have the fantasy aspect, but at one point in the book it switches very unexpectedly into romance so yeah, I'm still quite confused about this book...
wait maybe i missed it but did you already finish Harrow the Ninth? Wanted to hear your thoughts on it because each book is so different in tone, but still amazing.
Did you read Harrow the Ninth already or did you mean by "getting to Nona the Ninth" that you wanted to read both Harrow and Nona?
Zelda !
❤ 📚 ❤
How to become the dark lord and die trying is basically the tarnished from ER who's done with dying to everything in the world 😂
Go to God and Gumiho expecting a pretty shallow YA fantasy romance where characters act like teens despite their actual age being centuries & u might enjoy it more lol. I think trying to position it as adult does it a disservice.. like actual adult fantasy readers aren’t gonna enjoy it but I guess the Fourth Wing type ones might!
Hi 👋🏾👋🏾👋🏾. I am currently reading the Devabad series and am on the 3rd book The Empire of Gold. The world building and characters have me hooked. Cannot wait to dive into the 4th book. I am binging the entire series which I never do. My library has just informed me that Dead Cat Tail Assassins is ready for pick-up! Finally, I will be reading a book along with you! Want to finish sequels... Amarie and the Night Brothers has a 4th book coming available, These Burning Stars has a sequel coming that I cannot wait to read.
A sorcerers comes to call can’t wait to read it 🌞📚📚📚🩵📖🌺🌺📖🌞🌞📚📙🌺📖🌞📚📚📙📙📚📚📚📚🌞📖📖📖📖🌞📙📙📙📚🌞🩵📖
I hated Faithful and the Fallen. I thought they were worst written books I have touched in years. Only series I have DNF in the last 20+ years.
If you have read both is the second series much better than the F&F.
Ugh sooo not the most positive opinion to give here BUT God and Gumiho, Jade and Dragons were both super disappointing for me personally. Maybe cuz they were anticipated… but (to me) they just read really… shallow & immature for lack of better word, especially Jade and Dragons. Like the worldbuilding is v weak, character motivations and development are glossed over and overall just a really shallow book that doesn’t serve much beyond vibes, tropes, instalove ( also reads a bit like a draft prose wise.)
Like it’s YA at its most mediocre though not AS terrible as, say, Powerless cuz I guess the Asian elements are cool and sorta unique . So I’m curious to see if u enjoy them cuz I’m kinda doubtful based on what I’ve seen you read so far but who knows! Could be good as a palette cleanser! (Also Don’t expect dragons tho lol I think the publisher screwed the author over with the title and marketing cuz there really aren’t any dragons, just barely)
A book I would be interested in seeing you check out (think u mentioned it before) is Fathomfolk! I think that one is reeeally misunderstood by readers partially cuz of its marketing, but it makes some interesting commentary (important to note the author isn’t American, so a lot of readers seem
To be attributing American mindsets to her which is unfair imo) although it reads YA in parts
