Did you ever want a fantasy version of Seven Samurai? Look no further! The Maleficent Seven by Cameron Johnston delivers big time. Vampires, demons, warrior gods, mad alchemists. The most fun I've had reading all year.
Matt finally, finally gets to Fools Fate by Robin Hobb. He was adamant going into this trilogy that nothing would surpass LiveShip Traders. With Fitz's story completed (for now), how did Tawny Man rank in the Hobb-verse?
Old faces and new show up at Buckkeep. Fitz has his hands full with lovers, family, his grief, and of course, The Fool. Golden Fool is a bridge book into the final installment of The Tawny Man series, but I loved every page.
Back with Fitz and Nighteyes! Fool's Errand is full of happiness and literally nothing sad or tragic. Oh, wait. It actually used my heart as a punching bag, much like Farseer. Can't wait to read it again!
Matt visits Sherwood for the first time since he watched Disney's Robin Hood. The Ghosts of Sherwood, a novella from Carrie Vaughn, is a short but sweet story about Robin's family after the events of the main Robin Hood story. Matt praises the real heroes of this story - Robin's children.
Matt's first re-read of Oathbringer by Brando Sando. Initially he had mixed feelings, but (like many Sanderson books) upon re-read he's seen some things in a new light. There's still the occasional hiccup (Radiant), but overall it was a smoother ride.
Matt joins back up with Tau in his bloodthirsty odyssey of revenge. Been a while since we've been so invested in a character. Witnessing Tau's story is like a bad car accident. Horrifying, but we can't turn away.
Matt packs his suitcase and vacations in the volatile island of Kekon where the Kaul family is up to their eyeballs in trouble. There's secrets aplenty in that family, but it's no secret how much Matt enjoys this series.
The journey towards RoW continues as Matt returns to his old favorite - as in favorite Sanderson book and maybe, just maybe, favorite fantasy book ever. It never gets old and his fist never tires from pumping during the Sanderlanche.
Matt finally finishes his Halloween reads....in December! Tag along as he recounts his time with this mixture of Ray Bradbury and Battle Royale with a splash of The Long Walk. Quick and spooky right in time for Christmas...
