I have taken almost a year long break from reading fiction to focus on non-fiction. I am ready to start reading fiction again, but after such a long break I have no idea where to start.

Here are some books I have enjoyed in the past:

  • Dragon’s Egg (Robert L. Forward)
  • The Damned Trilogy (Alan Dean Foster)
  • Mage Errant series (John Bierce)
  • Cradle series (Will Wight)
  • Gods of Blood and Powder (Brian Mckellan)
  • The Spiral Wars (Joel Shepard)
  • Basically everything Brandon Sanderson has written
  • Mr. Semi@lemmy.worldEnglish

    Chrysalis by RinoZ is fantastic. Isekai but the MC is reincarnated as a giant ant.

    Grimnoir trilogy by Larry Correia. Alternate history where humanity begins developing individual magical talents in the 1800s. Takes place late 1930s.

    Murderbot diaries. Has live action adaptation in progress on some streaming service. Main character is an artificial biological/machine construct. It is not, in fact, a murderous machine. Unless you threaten its humans.

    The Tainted Cup by Robert Jackson Bennett. Murder mystery in with an eldritch horror twist. I’ve enjoyed this book and the sequel more than anything else I’ve read in the past few years.
