Fantasy Buddy Reads discussion

Buddy Read starts 1st February.

Thank you, Angela!

I'm in! I loved The Shadow of What Was Lost and look forward to continue the series :)

I'm probably going to join too. I bought the second book. The first I borrowed from the library and it was so good!

I need to pick up a copy myself. I wanted to do audio (because I did the first thst way) but I think I'll be doing a physical one.

Yay! I completed the 1st book a couple of weeks ago (too late for the Buddy Read)
Cannot wait to read the next one.

I'm tentative on this one. I already have like 10+ books lined up for Feb, and most are super long. I really want to join in though so will try to make it work.

I'm starting this one in advance.

I am hoping to get the audio for this one. Maybe tonight. But then I will have to split my time between it and Warbreaker...might be starting a little late.

Anyone started already? I think I'll start the 2nd half of this month.

I didn't get the audio so I'm waiting on a copy at the library. Should be there this weekend.

I started end of January in audio but there are so many books vying for my attention that I read only 5 chapters :p

I am starting this one today. Just picked it up from the library.

Tried to do this one in audio but I was too confused with all the names... Read a summary of The Shadow of What Was Lost, and restarted with the ebook version.
Much, much better!

I listened to the first one on audio, so I'm not sure how my brain will handle the switch to the physical book.

Yeah, I read the first one on my Kindle. I couldn't connect the pronunciation of the names to their written forms.
I hope you'll fare better with the switch than I did!

I hope to start next week. I have, let me think, 5 books to finish this week ;)

Read the prologue and first chapter. I like having the pronunciations from having listened to the audio. And I really like the writing, I had forgotten how good it was.

Just finished chapter 5. Liking this one a lot. (view spoiler)[Andyn is hilarious. I hope he doesn't end up evil or anything.

And who is the woman? (hide spoiler)]

Finished chapter 7. Very curious about who the woman was. And who is trying to talk to Davian.

Through chapter 11. (view spoiler)[Did we know that Caedan was the person who Daevean met in the time warp thing from book one? Makes sense, just don't remember if we knew it then.

And who has Davean? Augurs, obviously, but who are they? (hide spoiler)]

Through chapter 17 and I am really liking this one! I'm glad I'm doing the physical book. Although I am much better with audio now, so it probably would have gone well either format.

I just want to find out everything with all of them. And he handles them being separated really well so far. Wasn't sure how it would be with all of our main people in different places.

Through chapter 27. (view spoiler)[I want to know how/when this is going to happen with Davian. And what will happen to the other augurs? (hide spoiler)]

Through chapter 32. (view spoiler)[Is Wirr's mom being controlled, I wonder? And what experiment does Taeris have in mind?

I'm also really curious to see how things go with Asha and Breshada. And what happens to Aelric, since it seems he's being an idiot.

And what is happening with Davian? Who attacked Ishelle and why did the dar'gaithan save Davian, which seems to be what happened? (hide spoiler)]

Is anyone else still reading?

Through chapter 36. (view spoiler)[I wonder if the creatures poisoned Ishelle in some way. And what is happening with Asha? She can't be dead, so they must have gotten her, but what will happen next? And it's sad that Wirr is having to learn this stuff about his dad. :( (hide spoiler)]

Through chapter 38. (view spoiler)[It makes so much sense that the Shadows are being used as a power source. And that Nethgalla was Breshada. I was not expecting that. (hide spoiler)]

I've started yesterday, but I'm not further than a summary of the first book, so I can't discuss it at the moment. But it's good to have a short review on the previous book.

I hope you enjoy it! I am looking forward to more discussion. :)

I'll do my best :)

Is there anyone else reading this also?

When do we start? :)

I thought this one was postponed to somewhere mid 2019.

And I thought this was this month. I'll drop it and read in February then.
