Very busy couple of weeks, so didn't actually read anything.

Still on Streams of Silver by R. A. Salvatore, 2nd novel in Icewind Dale series, which is a subseries of Forgotten Realms series (D&D world).

What about all of you? What have you been reading or listening to lately?

Just finished Thrawn Ascendancy: Chaos rising. Next up, the second in the series.

It was such a great book. I can't wait to read the rest of the series

How is it, if you haven't read any Star Wars novel, and have only watched the movies?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I will also say that the star wars books, from what I have seen, aren't sequential. You can start anywhere in the universe and it doesn't matter, notwithstanding the actual series books, like Thrawn series and whatever. It's more like Terry Pratchett's Discworld. It's a bunch of independent stories set in the same universe.

Any recommendations for interesting starting points?

Not really. I'm pretty new to the Star Wars novels. I've literally read two, and they are both part of the same series. But FWIW, I am reading the Thrawn Ascendency series, and it's pretty damn good.

I am in the same situation. I have not read any other SW books, and have only seen the movies.

It's great. I can't put my Kobo down. It's enthralling, it's enticing. It's very well written. I love it.
