October in Books

First time this year, a monthly recap post with only 5 books. 4 were good, and 1 was okay.

Best

  • Kings of the Wyld by a wild margin. The book felt like a mix between LOTR and Ready Player One but with a much broader variety of creatures, like Centaurs, Kobolds, undead, humans with wings and so on.
  • Top Secret Twenty-One – a bubblegum. Stephanie Plum catches some scary people.
  • Bookshops & Bonedust – Travis Baldree scored another win, kind of related to Kings of the Wyld by the type of intelligent creatures who participate
  • Son of a Liche – the continuation of Orconomics felt much more interesting and balanced than the first part but it still feels too long

Worst

  • Japanese Tales of Mystery and Imagination by Edogawa Rampo. The book is not bad but it felt slow.
