I read Dune a loooong time ago, but while I remember the gist of story, don’t remember the details, so staying away from the movies too. Going to do a re-read, and then watch the movies.
The Witcher is an interesting world. Would be interesting to see how they expand the stories in next games.
That premise about Tender is Flesh made me go from, ‘interesting’ to ‘uhh…’ pretty quickly. Do let us know if you do (or do not) finish the book, and how it goes.
I was reading Lightbringer series by Brent Weeks, but gave up at the start of book 3. Have you read it? If yes, how do you compare it with The Night Angel series?
I remember that The Way of Kings was a bit slow to start, but didn’t realise it was this slow. I have been planning a re-read in anticipation of the 5th book, so nice to adjust my expectations.

About 2E, if that 4,000 year old Prince of the Shokan lost an arm, but got tele-kinetic power, which may or may not be the reason or linked to losing his arm, would that count? It’s a disability, but he got powers that makes it less of a disability.
I am still reading Three Days to Never by Tim Powers.
Have been pretty busy with real life, so haven’t gotten around to doing much reading these past couple of weeks. Have a long list of books lined up after it, so hopefully will get some time over the coming the weekend.
The idea is generally to share what you are reading since the last time you posted in one of these thread (which are posted weekly), or just what you are reading lately.
Also, 69 books and it’s just April, that’s really cool. With this speed, you can have around 200 books by the year end. Would love to see how your journey progresses.
