    Witness for the Dead is a spin-off, following one of the characters introduced in Goblin Emperor. It is a very different kind of book - basically it's a classic murder mystery in a fantasy world.

    Woah, that omnibus edition of Witness for the Dead is gorgeous! Rushing to buy that one as it's one of the few books I reread. (It is a chronological sequel to Goblin Emperor, but follows a different character and has a different focus which is why it has stand-alone power.)

    Man, while I quite like the idea of Isekai, the execution, at least in most anime series I find quite lacklustre and repetitive / predictable / trope-y. BTW, the Fionavar Tapestry is actually isekai, haha!
    I am waiting a ton of books myself, the list (draws biiig breath) book of the new sun 1+2, malice, valour, wrath, Rendezvous With Rama, Elantris: 10th Anniversary Edition, The Will of the Many, poppy war trilogy, piranesi, count zero, mona lisa overdrive, The Horror Stories of Robert E. Howard, Warbreaker, arcanum unbound, the era 2 of mistborn quarted, city of last chances by Tchaikovsky, the Ray Bradbury collection by Library of America, Gods Of The Wyrdwood by RJ Barker TBB edition, and contemplating getting the Sword of Kaigen by Page and Wick.

      That's the same for me. Isekai in anime or manga seems like a subgenre I disliked. A LOT. I tried the popular and highly praised ones like Re:Zero and Mushoku Tensei (disgusting garbage), and I hated them all. i will still try Fionavar Tapestry, though. And WOW.
