I asked this question a few months ago and figure I’d ask every few months because it was great to see the large response and it was nice to get book recommendations to add to my ever expanding pile to read. The book I most recently finished was The Cat Who Walked Through Walls by Heinlein and I’m currently reading The Strong Shall Live which is a series of short stories by Louis L’Amour. I have found a ton of his books at yard sales and they are usually sold for a quarter or 50 cents a piece so I have quite a few and this is the first one I’m reading. Also found the book Lonesome Dove along with L’Amour’s stuff. Anyway, what are yall reading?

I was given The Dragonbone Chair by Tad Williams for my birthday and I’m trying to find time to sit down with it, it’s the first part of a fantasy trilogy that was a big inspiration for A Song of Ice and Fire. Unlike ASOIF, it’s actually a complete story.
Before that I read Between Two Fires by Christopher Buehlman. It’s a medival horror story that takes place in France during the black plague. It’s got monsters and demons and shit, and the characters were pretty cool, it really reminded me of Berserk. It’s also pretty based, the demons are all clearly evil, God is good, etc.
