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.

    How is the overall series? I am still on the first series, Icewind Dale one, 2 books down, last one to go.

      I’m personally a huge fan of the series. I’ve been reading them for 20+ years by now. There are always up and downs, but the not good books are still better than others I’ve read. It’s also great to see how characters have changed throughout the series and the wider Forgotten Realms / Faerun world has been affected by the books in connection with bigger D&D events.

      Technically a prequel, but was written after Icewind Dale, there is The Dark Elf Trilogy which explores Drizzt’s origins and escape from the Menzoberranzan. Definitely recommend if that’s not what you started with.

      The nice thing is that Salvatore released novels at a good pace. I’ve been waiting for the 3rd Kingkiller Chronicles book by Patrick Rothfuss for… 15 years I think?

        Rothfuss is one of the reason I don’t like to start unfinished series now 😀

        I pretty much always prefer to go with the published order instead of chronological order, so I started with Icewind Dale, but The Dark Elf Trilogy is next one, if I remember it correctly. I am liking what I have read so far, so will probably continue the series, so it’s good to hear that most of his books are pretty good.
