    I'm currently listening to Jade City. I believe Will may have a signed copy, unless you absconded with it 😉 I want to read Warm Hands too. Looking forward to Sadie's review. Best line from The Godfather: "Leave the gun. Grab the cannoli." I can't help with Sadie's pick - Hobb is awesome but I expect Atalanta will be too. Saltblood cover is gorgeous.

    The Gates of Athens for Ed and Atalanta for Sadie.
    Dang it! I read Homecoming physically but would totally have done the audiobook for Claire Foy.
    Also, “I’ll be there with the tissues” is absolute COUPLE GOALS. As someone who was dumped out of the blue 3 months ago by who I thought was the love of my life, that proved there are still good men out there 😭

      Claire Foy is amazing! I’m not sure if she narrates any others but she definitely should.

    I loved Jade War. I read that series so quickly. I couldn't put it down. There's some really intense moments. I think the second book is my favorite, but the entire series is great.

    Just finished both «Empire of Silence» and «Howling Dark» last month, really enjoyed them: Loads of reference to both Genre and Classical Literature!
    As for myself, I am just about finished with «The Green Pearl» (Lyonesse Trilogy #2) by Jack Vance ((Pre-)Arthurian Fantasy) and will start on «Ash: A Secret History» by Mary Gentle (Alt-Historical Military Fiction inspired by the Hundred Year War and the Mercenary Wars of the Renaissance) and the first «Sun Eater» Novellas and Short Stories: «The Lesser Devil», «Tales Vol. 1» and «Queen Amid Ashes» (LOVE the New Cover for «QAA»)!
    Next on my May TBR List is:
    «The Wise Man’s Fear» by Patrick Rothfuss (Fantasy, sequel to «The Name of the Wind»)
    «Madouc» (Lyonesse Trilogy #3) by Jack Vance ((Pre-)Arthurian Fantasy)
    On my May MBR/June TBR List, I have:
    «The City» (City of Victory Trilogy #2) by Adrian Goldsworthy (Historical Military Fiction set during Emperor Trajan’s Campaigns)
    «The Dragonbone Chair» (Memory, Sorrow, and Thorn, #1) by Tad Williams (Epic Fantasy, a key influence for George R. R. Martin's « A Song of Ice and Fire»)
