Still reading The Crystal Shard by R. A. Salvatore. First book of The Icewind Dale Trilogy, and The Legend of Drizzt / Forgotten Realms series (publication order).
Book is pretty fast paced and full of action. Really enjoying it.
What about all of you? What have you been reading or listening to lately?

Oh man, I finished that series last year. Definitely some incredible parts, but it also drags a bit at the end. It finished with like 2000 pages of matching through a desert which was rough, but by that point you’ve read enough that you can’t stop.
Younger audience is a crazy critique though, I can’t say I ever though that.
Haha it was mostly the Crokus centred part I got that impression from, plus a few other elements like edgy Anomander Rake. I got that impression a bit with the daru cabal plot but it is probably too harsh a criticism for most of the book.
Man, spoilers much? So much of the beauty of book four was having that click in my brain. There’s a reason Erikson doesn’t use his real name through dead house gates…
Not sure if Lemmy supports comment spoilers but that would have been the time to use them, might not be too late to prevent others from getting spoiled.
I removed that sentence from my comment, but I didn’t think it was a spoiler. How is his name relevant? I knew that ahead of time and didn’t think it spoiled anything for me.
