      If anyone is looking for a new Fantasy author, Brandon Sanderson is my favorite, by a significant margin. He has multiple series that he is concurrently writing that all have unique characters, stories, and magic systems. And the larger universe is all tied together in some way that he has yet to explain.

      Agreed, he is a fantastic author! Robin Hobb is another favorite of mine. Her Farseer Trilogy is a classic.

        I'm currently reading a series of books I picked up for free a few weeks ago, "Legends: Fifteen Tales of Swords and Sorcery".

        https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/28512410-legends

        Set to finish up Book #2 ( "The Blacksmith's Son (Mageborn #1)" by Michael G. Manning) in the next day or so... So far the first two books have been kinda meh, but I don't think I'm necessarily the target audience so we'll leave it at that. And considering the price I can't really complain all that much (yet).

          What? There is a new book in the Hell series? BRB...

          Drat, I thought it was a multiverse book, not another Safehold book.

                Yeah, Safehold is just slightly different than the multiverse. Still, I've really enjoyed both series so far.

                    I'm reading the Sanctuary series by Robert J. Crane. On Book 2 of the original trilogy. Quite enjoyable so far.

                      I just got the audio book of Hitchhiker's Guide.... read by Stephen Fry. Trying to make time to sit and read an analog book is next to impossible, so I'll read while in the car.

                        I haven't been reading a lot lately... when I do I generally binge a series in a few nights. The last series I read was The Laundry Files by Charles Stross, can't wait for the next one to come out.

                            Probably not but it can be a bit dense.

                                Just finished some Alistair Reynolds, going back to reread some Neal Asher after seeing Musk is also into it.

                                    Just finished Relentless by Tim Grover. Really good book on success mindset and motivation.

                                        @scottalanmiller If you haven't read it already, you should read "The Egyptian" by Mika Waltari while you're still in Crete.
