I'm in need of cheering up, so here's a question for my fellow nerds: what's your favourite go-to scifi and/or fantasy series - or even individual entry from a series - that always brightens your day? It can be books, films, TV, or any other media!

@odanu I just finished the TUYO series by Rachel Neumeier - really interesting world building and fantastic relationship between the central characters. Still re-reading THE KINGDOMS by Natasha Pulley as Book of the Year (was last year, but still….)

Fellow fantasy nerds! Abercrombie is on hiatus and Sanderson is years away from the next WOR installment. I've just finished the Expanse, read Shadow of the Gods and its sequel, Age of Myth series and finished Gentlemen Bastards. What next? Ideally something I don't need to wait for.

I picked up the Heartstriker series, worried that it was going to be fluff. It was instead a fascinating ride of world building and magical theory!

First book: Nice Dragons Finish Last, by Rachel Aaron

Ode to the Infodump

When I think of infodumping, the practice of including far too much backstory or explanation in fiction (or nonfiction!) writing, there is one man who stands above the rest: the science fiction author Neal Stephenson.

Stephenson is famous for his infodumps, including his long, long lists, which transcend the winking comedic effect most writers use them for
