Very glad I picked up this trilogy. I haven't read any Abercrombie before, but I'd heard about this series from a few places, and now I'm already 2/3rds through the original trilogy (Plus a few chapters of book 3)! Very enjoyable so far -dark, filled with interesting & intense characters. Perhaps less good on the story side and the worldbuilding is slow and fairly generic. But the character's descriptions and thoughts have definitely been enough to keep me reading.<br />

I got delayed with my post again, but on the plus side, I've finally finished Midnight Tides after about a month or so? I found it difficult to get through the first time round as well, so that came as no surprise.<br />
I also began the Shattered Reals - Sequel series to Chima's Seven Realms series, and so far it's all in very good shape. Different enough from the original series to be interesting, while still clearly located in the same world, but following a new generation of characters.<br />

Incredibly slow going on Midnight Tides, I'm afraid to say. I'm almost at the home run stage to finish it though! Then I'll be onto a few other books first before heading to The Bonehunters (Malazan #6). Exciting Stuff.<br />

The end of one trilogy, the start of another? Except only the first book in the Unearthed series is actually out so far and while it was fun, there wasn't quite as much substance to it as I would have liked. Ah well, back to the wonderful world of Malazan then!<br />

Obsidio: a brilliant sequel and finale to what is now one of my favourite trilogies and for sure my favourite YA Sci Fi series (Though I'll admit I haven't read very many at all). Can't wait to see what Kaufman & Kristoff get up to next.<br />
Norse Mythology: a bit disappointing, a bit too much biblical style writing and not quite enough fleshing out the stories which is what I thought it would be like.<br />

A great selection this month! Continuing and rereading a whole range of series. Enjoying the Axis books so far, will be reading the 3rd book hopefully in April, but first I must finish the 3rd, brand new, Illuminae files book -such excitement. Of course that meant I had to reread 1 & 2, which I'm very glad I could fit into this month. Then once again caught up to date with the Throne of Glass series. Not my favourite book within the series, but still well worth a read, and hopefully the next one will be out later this year -and perhaps be the final book?<br />

My first time reading a China Mieville book. I did enjoy, but it was a bit too drawn out for me, and though the description was very well done, there was also a bit too much of it. So I'm a bit love/hate with that one.<br />
Dancer's Lament is the first in Esslemont's new prequel series, set before Erikson's Mazalan: Book of the Fallen series, as well as before Esslemont's own Malazan Empire books. I think his writing style has changed a bit and I found myself enjoying this one quite a bit more than the Malazan Empire books.<br />

Happy New Year everyone! I have not much to say here aside from praising Erikson and the Malazan series as a gift to all fans of epic fantasy once more. Also, I should probably read some shorter books in between these long-ass ones...<br />

So much for increasing my reading speed this month, I barely even had time off anyway. Children of time had some very interesting concepts and science-fiction-y stuff going for it, but storyline-wise was quite slow. Also do NOT read if you're arachnophobic. Rowan of Rin was mostly just good nostalgia and great a a children's (middle grade) book, the sequel was even slightly better with some more exciting pacing and danger.<br />

Memories of Ice took me a loooonnggg time, but I was also quite distracted with a whole bunch of other things going on this month, so I expect December may be a little more productive for reading. On the other hand, it does genuinely take a while to get through any Malazan book, especially if you're trying to take everything in properly and occasionally have to flip back and forth a bit to keep up. Worth it though!<br />

A great month for getting through a number of shorter books, and getting a little further on my Malazan re-read!<br />
Technically I have read the Seventh Tower series before as well, but given that was probably back in my early teens, I can hardly remember a thing about them so it's almost like reading for the first time?<br />

This was a great month for me! Discovered a new great sci-fi series in Homecoming, which I will be continuing hopefully soon. FINALLY finished the Wheel of Time in all its epic finale -I still can't believe it's over! Also finished off the Lumatere Chronicles, which I wouldn't put high on my all time favourites list, but was still an interesting read. And continuing on with my Malazan reread -I'm getting towards the end of book 2.<br />

<b>Review:</b></div>
<div>
<span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">This one is a bit meh, but there’s some deeper motivations at the end that make the whole episode mean a whole lot more, so it gets a bit of a bonus for that. Also for Drusilla.</span></div>

</div>
<div>
<span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">A great concept for a demon, a great look at some of Giles’ past. The Giles/Calendar thing is kind of sweet too. But on the whole not a perfect episode and perhaps could have explored this particular creature a little more before the happy ending.</span></div>

<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The first half of this double episode has a few great moments but a much slower pace. Though a lovely Bangel scene and some cliffhangery moments.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Second episode is basically ahh the strangeness of Kendra! I never did like her much as a character, but I liked what it did for Buffy. Also, Oz! Oz-and-Willow! My gosh the ramping up thing is huge for them.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">And then those ridiculously awkward Xander-Cordelia moments which I still don’t really understand.</span></div>

<span style="vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Such a very strange episode. An unfortunately high creep factor of the (mostly) regular kind as opposed to the usual supernatural kind that Buffy usually encounters. A bit uncomfortable and eugh.</span></span></div>

A fairly average episode in terms of storyline and not really any overarching/long term stuff going on, but it does have a fair amount of Whedonisms!</span></span></div>

<span style="background-color: transparent; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">This is definitely one of my favourite episodes of first season.

For simplicity I'll be rewatching <a href="http://buffy.wikia.com/wiki/Viewing_order_suggestion_for_Buffy_and_Angel">in this order</a> suggested by the Buffyverse Wiki.<br />

A great first-half-of-pilot, introduces everything while still also being exciting and entertaining and funny. Xander's character introduction is my favourite, it just about sums up his character for the entire first season.</span></span></div>

Rereading the Lightbringer series was a good call because I had hardly remembered the details, and I finally got around to book 4, which was a tad underwhelming compared to the rest of the series so far, but still great. Ashling, on the other hand, not so great.<br />

I had a relatively good month this time for reading more books from even more series, most of them very good ones. Unfortunately the Wheel of Time prequel was fairly disappointing and given that I haven't yet started book 12 hopefully I won't completely loose track of that particular series, but at least rereading the Lightbringer series I'll finally be able to get around to reading the newest fourth book!<br />

I just managed to squeeze in the end of Wheel of Time #11 just before the end of the month! I kept getting distracted by all these many other books which were mostly really great, but I did it anyway! And it was worth it, book 11 has been one of the strongest so far, with the most big events/reveals/anything actually happening since about book 4 or 5?<br />

The Starbound series is absolutely incredible -3 separate stories which aren't actually so separate as it turns out (do read them in order), with Sci-Fi, Romance, Action, Comedy and pretty much anything else you could want in a good YA series! I only wish there had been more books in it.<br />
