So, my copy of Wind and Truth by Brandon Sanderson finally arrived. Now I have some books piled up and should finish reading some first before I delve into this one instead of dumb fanfics and crazy manga. :dogkek:

Rereading “The Leviathan” trilogy by Scott Westerfeld. If you’re looking for a steam punk world of both bio-engineering and machinery then I highly reccomend it. Split between the Darwinist and Clankers factions and set in a pre WWI fantasy world the setting was what got me into the steampunk aesthetic.

The books also come with proper sketches like a light novel and helps paint a better picture of what the world looks like and apparently… just learning this now as I type this its getting an anime adaptation. Hope they don’t cuck it up.

Give it a read before the anime comes out I guess! The adaptation might flop but the book trilogy is great.

Thanks for the offer, it might take some weeks or months for me to read it, I am so busy with other stuff (work, friends, skiing, hiking, gaming, other shit... :D )

But since a few plot threads were moving forward in the last book, I think, I can imagine what will happen, I just need to refresh my memory a bit by reading the first few chapters of the book.

I'm currently reading: " The Long Road Home: A Story of War and Family". I remember it buying it years ago and now I'm finally getting around to read it.

It's a real life military story set during the Iraq War. A U.S. convoy was ambushed by militiamen in Sadr City, Baghdad during a routine patrol. This leads to a desperate battle for survival as they hold out against the enemy forces until the rescue team arrives to extract them.

I'm 1/4 done with the book but so far, I'm liking it.
