Anyone want to hit me up with some #book #recommendations ?
I like #philipkerr #nickharkaway #iainmbanks #timpowers #cixinliu #nealstephenson
The thing I’d most like to see right now is something like #stephendonaldson ‘s Gap Cycle
What do you reckon?

Well, this weekend I finished "The Killing God", and thus the trilogy, "The Great God's War", by #StephenDonaldson Great #fantasy, as only Donaldson can do. Absolutely loved it.
@AetherEgo
Absolutely. Tolkien and Leiber both equally influenced me when I started gaming, also the sadly much neglected and quite excellent #ChroniclesOfPrydain by #LloydAlexander, as well as #DavidEddings and #ThomasCovenantTheUnbeliever by #StephenDonaldson.
Leiber‘s #Lankhmar and Asprins Sanctuary were definitely the grittiest of the bunch, though.
Incidentally, as a Player I played a Midgard homebrew years ago and instantly recognized it as based on a Leiber Story. Much fun was had.

Was super excited to have Apple Books tell me that "The Killing God" – the final book in the #StephenDonaldson trilogy "The Great God's War" was out. About 80 pages in and loving it.

@davidallengreen interested in which #fantasy #authors you favour. I’m going to suggest #StevenBrust #JackVance #GeneWolfe #StephenDonaldson and see if you bite. Obviously #jrrt as well but that’s almost a special case.
