    Great list and I’ll follow for more recs. I love Gentlemen Bastards but First Law is probably my favorite series. Abercrombie doesn’t mind killing his darlings when it’s called for.
    Could you do a deep dive review on Stormlight Archives books? I would love to hear why folks didn’t like Oathbringer. I always enjoy getting to know more about Dalinar so that book really resonated for me.

      thank you :)
      oh now you made me more excited to start the first law trilogy! I've bought it recently and really want to read it but scared of starting another series.
      I made review videos for both The Way of Kings and Words of Radiance but couldn't bring myself to make one for Oathbringer 😅

    I love seeing Locke Lamora on here! That first book hit so hard. And mistborn is my #1!
    Thanks for making such a great video. Have you read the broken earth trilogy? The first book especially is incredible.

      Glad you enjoyed it!
      I actually read the broken earth trilogy and I kinda enjoyed the first book but the series overall isn't my thing. I can't remember 90% of it now.

    For me, Realm of The Elderlings and Malazan are at the very top of fantasy. S+ tier, then the rest follow at S tier and A tier etc, like first law and mistborn/stormlight.

    Great selections! With the way you described the Mistborn series I was wondering if you had read and liked the Gentlemen Bastard series as well. Happy you did. I read those two at around the same time will ever have them linked in my head.

    • @rananajjar
      @rananajjar  5 месяцев назад

      now you mention it, these two series have some similarities and maybe that's why they are so high on my list. There are some things in books I always enjoy and they were brilliantly done here.

    I've read City of Brass and I'm not sure whether I'll carry on with the series, but you've pushed me towards picking up the next two! 🩵🩵🩵

    I love that Mitsborn Era 1 is in second place. 😍😍😍 For me the Mitsborn Trilogy is also superior to The Stormlight Archive in every aspect. As far as I know, the plot and characters of Mitsborn Era 1 caught me more. And speaking of characters, what do you think of Vin?

    Hello Rana, I just discovered your channel! (Sorry if I'm a bit misinformed) But I'd like to know if you read anything else for Brandon Sanderson besides Stormlight & Mistborn. Also, have you ever had the chance to take a look on the Wheel of Time Series by Robert Jordan/Brandon Sanderson?

    • @rananajjar
      @rananajjar  5 месяцев назад

      Welcome to my corner! hope you enjoy it here :)
      I read Warbreaker and it's probably my least favorite book by Brandon Sanderson. I also read the Emperor's Soul, it was my first book by Brandon and enjoyed it a lot.
      I own Tress of the Emerald Sea and want to read it soon but don't know how soon 😅
