Finished Cold Days by Jim Butcher! (The 14th book in Dresden Files series.)

It was a wild ride! We are back to world shattering problems and trying to stop them. Just finished the book so haven’t finalised which one to start next, but thinking about reading the next Mistborn book, 3rd one in Wax and Wayne era. Let’s see.

    Nice, not sure if you’ve seen my other comments, but I’ve read in chronological order from the start. So I’ve done 90 or so legends books. They are obviously all over the place being different authors, but can’t say I hated any, some weren’t “enjoyable” as covered topics that weren’t particular interesting to me. But saying that, it’s interesting to see the different perspectives of how people write about their profession, like biology for example. Med-star was still interesting although dry as an example.

    My brothers been ranting and raving waiting for me to get to it, it’s one of the ones he’s read himself.

      That’s fun! I hadn’t remembered seeing your other posts.

      I remember a lot of them fondly, and when I was updating my reading profile on a bunch of the tracking sites, it was fun remembering as many of the ones I had read that I could so that I could put them on there. There were a few that I had forgotten about reading until I was looking at a big list of them and they came right back.

        Ah, I haven’t made posts about them, just comments in these sticky posts.

        I’ve really enjoyed most of them, I’m particular to short stories it seems. I really enjoyed the “Tales of”. I think there was 4 of them? Basically 5 short stories from different authors with some overlap.

        Tales of Mos Eisley had the epicenter of the scene that Obi cut the guys hand off (one of the stories is that guy), the other Tales of the Bounty Hunters followed the bounty hunters tasked with finding Solo. The epicenter being Vader having them together in that scene.
