the_Nerd_Huntress Aaah what cool nominations, I would be happy with reading any of them 😍

Antonis Yeah, amazing nominations this time. I've only read The Founders Trilogy and I have to say the first 2 books were really great but the 3rd sadly lost it completely.

Uh. I loved the first book, and to read this, makes me weary :-(
So many good series spoiled by sequels...

Book 2 was on the same amazing level as book 1, It's just that book 3 moved in a very different direction which managed to disappoint everyone in my reading group when we did a buddy-read of the whole series. In any case, tastes are subjective so don't let me pre-spoil it for you; maybe you will like book 3 more than I did.


the_Nerd_Huntress How does it work if the second vote is a tie between 3 series? :)

Sometimes, if it looks like it will be a tie, someone will change their vote before the poll closes. Also, the moderator(s) may choose to vote late in the poll in order to break a potential tie. And sometimes we either have a poll among the tied series or we read them both/all.

In case this might influence anyone, the Greatcoats series can be had (Kindle editions) for less than $14 total.
