Finished The Eyes of the Dragon by Stephen King.
It was a nice book. Kind of YA, but fun to read. Pretty much a typical story of good vs bad, where good characters are super good and bad characters are super bad, with very few gray in between. Worth a read if you want a standalone fantasy novel that’s quick to read.
Read The Kaiju Preservation Society by John Scalzi. My first Scalzi novel and I loved it. A very light and easy to read sci-fi, with Kaiju in them. Going to get other Scalzi novels, may start with Old Man’s War.
Finally got my order my Dresden Files comics / graphic novels. So read the first omnibus, which has the original Welcome to the Jungle and graphic adaptation of first two Dresden Files novels, Storm Front and Fool Mon.
Second omnibus has all original graphic novels novels though, but will get to them later.
Just started Mistborn by Brandon Sanderson. I have read it before, but it has been quite a while, so re-reading it before starting on the sequel series.
What about all of you? What have you been reading or listening to lately?

For details, you can checkout the initial Book Bingo, and it’s Recommendation Post . Links are also present in our community sidebar.___
Scalzi’s Kaiju Presevation Society is great, his Starter Villain is definitely in the same vein of light and easy and fun.
I made it most of the way through Lud-In-The-Mist by Hope Mirrlees. It holds up pretty well for being almost 100 years old.
I still plan to read Dungeon Crawler Carl next.
Yeah, I took a look at his whole bibliography then went with KPS to check out how he writes, will probably be getting most of his books.
Lud-In-The-Mist looks interesting. Is it linked with any of her previous book?
I am excited for you, I was hooked on DCC and left feeling so lost when I finished. The audiobooks are worth a listen, it’s more of an auditory cinematic than just an audiobook. I got very used to that being the norm that I’m now struggling with regular narration, same actor doing all voices, no sound effects etc.
I thankfully found the Expeditionary Force series by Craig Alanson shortly after from another post on Lemmy. Not quite as cinematic but loving R.C. Bray’s performance and the series as a whole.
Finished 6th Dungeon Crawler Carl (haven’t started 7th yet) then started Expeditionary Force. Currently on book 16, with 17 having dropped recently, then I’ll cycle back for DCC 7 Faction Wars. Then I’ll be lost again haha.
