I wish Jakob a speedy recovery and the return of the best RUclips editor. Yesterday, I finished reading Assassin's Apprentice and We Are the Dead-two great books. I'm currently reading Rendezvous with Rama and Royal Assassin.👍
If a bridge has two pylons then one is Memory, Sorrow & Thorn and the other The WoLaS!! I also am at the halfway point of Curse of Mistwraith and you described it perfectly! This book is why we read fantasy, it gives you everything and I love the balance between Arithorn’s relationship with his brother on one hand and the weight of the world on the other!!
@@heidi6281 so well said Heidi. I am afraid things are Soon to get rocky for the brothers and I don’t want it! I know I will live the journey but still…
I've just finished Empire of Silence this morning and WOW! I knew going in that I would likely love it, but on this level? Oh my god, I did not expect to be this invested this early on! Can't wait to keep going! Looking forward to the interview with Ruocchio, hopefully Jakob will be well enough to be there! I've also just started 11/22/63 by Stephen King. I've heard great things about it so I'm very excited!
YES! I’m so happy you are loving Curse of the Mistwraith! WoLaS is going to ROCK YOUR WORLD! And I agree with what you said, Janny’s prose is so exacting that it teleports you straight into her world and just makes you a part of it as you watch these characters do these things. It’s just amazing! Also, you’ve now convinced me to read Chain Gang Allstars at some point- I thank you but my infinite TBR does not. And believe me when I say after Kingdoms of Death, Suneater won’t just be knocking on the door to those three- it’ll knock it down and say “I gotta get in on some of this fighting!” With a Marlow smile on its face! I’m so excited to hear your full thoughts on Mistwraith and Kingdoms of Death! It’s so exciting to me!
I am soooo looking forward to your read of Kingdoms of Death. It marks a very profound turning point in the series and absolutely devestating while also bringing certain themes that will become very crucial to the series going forward. KoD is, I think, my personal favorite Suneater book. There are so many scenes that live rent-free in my head from it. Spectacularly inportant to where the series is going and I think it will be the book people look back on in the series as the one that is most pivotal in Hadrian's arc as a character.
sunday weekly reeeeeeeeader! first off, I'm glad "smitten" has returned to the Talking Story vernacular. Our readalong got so massive with both booktubers and viewers! We are smart! Janny-uary is just the start of the journey! pouring one out for GI Robot.
Sending prayers and well wishes to the Boy Wonder. I hope he feels better. So many people are under the weather lately, including myself. Thanks for putting me onto Adjei-Brenyah. I look forward to reading more of him. I was pleasantly surprised at how much each of our opinions aligned on Chain-Gang All-stars.
The thing that strikes me with Curse of the Mistwraith is that every word has the intent of painting every part of the scene in your mind. People have talked about how dense it is and needing a dictionary, but it's dense to me because the detail of visualization makes me stop and absorb it. Loved Kingdoms of Death. It's amazing how much he continues to flesh out this story.
Best wishes to Jakob, I hope he gets well soon! Coincidentally, I'm in the middle of a pretty awful cold that's put me entirely out of commission for the last couple days, so I'm quite glad Mistwraith is a reread; I'm still not functional enough to process the prose and am getting behind. I'll be starting chapter 7 eventually. What I have been reading this week is A Wind in the Door by Madeleine L'Engle, for the first time since I was a kid. I have a lot of quibbles with her writing, but when it's good, it's very good. Also started rereading the first Spice and Wolf light novel, by Isuna Hasekura, yesterday as purely a comfort read while I wait for my sinuses to stop attacking me. Anyway, looking forward to the rest of the month!
Thanks for the video! I forgot to comment on the video, but I really enjoyed your discussion of chain gang all stars. It sounds like I enjoyed the historical footnotes a little more than you, but I always appreciate hearing your thoughts and hope you have another great week!
I'm really looking forward to starting Curse of the Mistwraith, but want to complete To Ride Hell's Chasm first. I also need to close out the Realm of the Elderlings series - only 2 books to go, so I want to give the next one priority this month. I started 4 series right at the end of December, beginning of the year, but will have to come back with those titles. I'm at the library and catching this update on the fly. 💜
20% the way through COTM and I am obsessed! The highlight of my reading was chapter 3. That chapter is one of the best meditations on the nature of hatred I’ve come across. I also love how Wurts makes every sentence so important. I’m currently balancing this book with 4 others. I’m in the process of finishing up Franz Werfel’s Star of the Unborn (very much another good example of transcendental SF), Ian Tregilis’s The Mechanical, Barbara Kingsolver’s The Poisonwood Bible, and Robin Hobb’s Assassin’s Quest. The good news is that all of these reads are amazing! I will also say I would not mind a book club with the Mrs selection down the road covering The Poisonwood Bible. I’m reading it through with my mom and it’s been a ride to say the least… so many thoughts for only being 50 pages in.
Oh, you're in for a treat with the 2nd half of Curse of the Mistwraith!!! This week I read: *Espionage* James Bond 001: Casino Royale - Really enjoyed and will be continuing if I need a palate cleanser. *Fantasy* The Heart of What was Lost / Tad Williams - Bridge between Memory, Sorrow & Thorn and Last King of Osten Ard, can't wait to start Last King in the coming weeks/months! *Sci-Fi* Southern Reach 1: Annihilation - Loved it. I will be continuing the series, but I'm content to stop here for now. I will be resuming Janny Wurts' Fugitive Prince after I finish Tales from Earthsea (Earthsea 5) and Dragon's Path (Dagger & Coin 1)
#TeamUnderTheWeather 🤒🤧 Wish Jakob a speedy recovery! Not much reading so far in January due to my pneumonia, but I have finished my New Year Read, «The Wall» (City of Victory Trilogy #3) by Adrian Goldsworthy (Historical Military Fiction set during the building of Hadrian’s Wall), and is about to start on «Cort Adeler» by Ole Henrik Gjeruldsen (Historical Biography about the 17th Century Norwegian Mercenary and Highly Decorated Admiral for the Venetian Navy)!
I hope Jakob feels better soon! I am so so so sooooo close to being done with East of Eden (only about 60 pages left out of 600), and I'm itching to read one of the series you've talked about on your channel! I'm indecisive so I'm going to draw from a reading jar, but if it points me towards scifi I'm definitely doing Suneater! The more I hear you talk about it the more hyped I get!
My new years resolution was to finally pick up the Harry Potter books, just finished The Philosphers Stone and wondering to myself why I never picked it up earlier? Great start with the first book and I hear it only gets better in the next couple too!
Love seeing the enthusiasm for Curse of the Mistwraith. I’m excited to get into To Ride Hell’s Chasm after Wind and Truth and then maybe get caught up to join in the Wars of Light and Shadow eventually! I just finished Bands of Mourning and started Wind and Truth. BoM is definitely my favorite Era 2 book so far. I enjoyed the ending of that a good bit!
@ I’m happy to be heading into Wind and Truth on a positive note after enjoying Bands of Mourning. Has me excited for The Lost Metal now. But first. Yes. Gotta get some Janny reading in!
Kingdoms of Death is my second favorite Sun Eater book. It’s the horror novel. I have many many thoughts on it but will reserve them until you’ve read it. Haha
I'm almost halfway through Towers of Midnight... it's a quick read. Besides WoT, I finished Adored by the Mountain Man by Hallie Bennett (if you take out the intimate scenes, the novella is good) and I tried Emily Henry. She writes very beautifully but I don't think I'm the target audience.
Looking forward to your return to Sun Eater! Kingdoms of Death was a difficult read for me, but has probably stuck with me the most. Currently 2/3 of the way through Disquiet Gods and it’s becoming my new favorite hands down!
Another thing you got going on with your channel, you are very good at your reviews, deft in descibing aspects you like and don't like about the books you read. I like how your wife pushes you with books, You like to read a lot and you can handle it. You definitely have a literary nose for books, another thing I appreciate about you. It's good that you can read some of your wife's literary picks to see what Trad Pub is doing in the modern literary space. Producing is one thing, but who needs an editor? It took me a long time to tell you were doing rant-reviews because they were so formulated and paced. I will enjoy watching the subs go up to at least 50k in 2025.
If you’ve read the Dresden Files, kingdoms of Death is the Changes of sun eater. Also have you read Red Rising? That and Sun eater are my top sci/fantasy series.
Oh John, I'm less than 200 pages from finishing Demon in White, and now you're telling me I have to start Kingdoms of Death near immediately? Lord haveth mercy . . .
I would recommend that you read 1 One Piece volume in between every book that you read because 1 volume every month is too little for such a long story
Hope Jakob feels better soon! I cannot wait for the next time you talk about One Piece, seems you reached Arlong Park which is universally considered as the first glimpse of what One Piece has to offer as far as emotional storytelling goes and makes people gradually fall in love with the story, the world and characters. Enjoy the ride 🏴☠️
I plan on starting Curse of the Mistwraith this week. It sounds amazing! I’m intrigued by what you said-I only knew it was about two estranged half brothers. Also…you got me to try Dr Pepper Zero and it’s delicious. lol 😂
Just the other day I joined Discord for the read along for the Curse of the Mistwaraith. And to find out now most are half way through the first book. Is there a read along? And if so where and when does this happen. I am new to Discord so not sure how it all works. On Saturday had some help with some members to get me to the right place. But still not sure how things work

@@Talking_Story Not the original poster here, but yes. It's been five or six years since I read the series, but it is extremely good. Action packed, thoughtful and with characters you love to love and love to hate. Man, I need to read the sequel series...
@@Talking_Story Yes! Ruin (#3) was my book of the year for 2024, and I’ve got my 15-year-old son reading it as well, and he’s loving it. Can’t say enough about this series!
@ I MAY join the Discord, but I never seem to have enough time to keep up with it. It will have to serve to keep watching the WoL&S discussion vids as they come out.
Hope you still have everything from Demon in White in your head, because Kingdoms of Death is a book that hits the hardest, the more fresh you are on Sun Eater. Also, better finish Kingdoms of Death before the video with Christopher.
Boy, I’m really struggling with Mistwraith, primarily because I’m dyslexic, so it’s proving to be a difficult challenge with the prose. I took a break for a couple of days, hopefully will find a way to power through. I am enjoying it, I just get lost a lot. 🥴. Wishing Jakob gets 100% well soon. When are you planning discussion for Mistwraith?
Feel better soon, Jakob! 🤒❤ Mr. Pooh is wonderful, but he’s not you. This week I read The Master of Djinn by P. Djeli Clark and Recursion by Blake Crouch. Both were highly enjoyable, fast paced reads which is exactly what I’m craving at the moment. I’m also listening to Rhythm of War on my way to work, so I’ll finish it…eventually (my commute isn’t that long).
No, the second half of Curse of the Mistwraith isn’t as good as the first. It’s better 🙂. It is going to, as the kids like to say, blow your hair back.
