    I’m reading Discworld for the first time! I’m reading in published order, and currently about to start Small Gods.

      I envy you, getting to read all of them for the first time. Small Gods is great. My favourites are the City Watch and Moist series, which generally comes later.

    Just finished book 10/10 in Tchaikovsky’s “Shadows of the Apt” series. I highly recommend it.

    For me it was an interesting blend of the political/military games of Martin’s A Song of Ice and Fire and the intersection of magic and technology in Sanderson’s Cosmere.

    Tchaikovsky’s most well known for Children of Time but although I like the third book in that series a lot the first two were a little meh for me. I liked the concepts and world building but the perspectives of octopi and spiders was kind of a drag for me. Somehow I liked the raven stuff though.

    I would also recommend Tchaikovsky’s The Final Architecture series if you’re into the sci-fi more than the fantasy aspects.

    Currently and for a looong loooong time, I am waiting for Doors of Stone. I think its just a few more… decades.

      Me too! I haven’t read the second one because I don’t want to invest too much in a series that doesn’t go anywhere (yet?). But as soon as number 3 comes out, I’ll read all of them.
