And how are you liking it?

I’m working my way through Foundryside by Robert Jackson Bennett and it’s solid so far, lots of fun, very compelling. I’m not the fastest reader but I’m already halfway done after just a few days.

    Coldfire is one of those series I’ve seen people recommend for years but hasn’t really ever crossed my radar properly. I do love Locke, though. How do you rank the series so far? I find I’m in the minority in that RoT is my fav book while RSURS my least.

      I totally understand people not liking RSuRS but I love it so much. It must just be because my dad genes require me to love Age of Sail/Exploration ships…

        That’s fair, I remember really struggling with the sailing sections, they didn’t hook me like the heist stuff. But then I think the other two books are just paced much better overall. I’m definitely in the minority with my RoT love though.

      I was honestly surprised by how much I enjoyed the series. Red Seas is definitely the weak link for me so far, but still good fun. I don’t think anything else will top Lies of Locke Lamora for me, though. That book got its hooks in me almost immediately and I couldn’t put down the series until I finished Republic.
