    Ooooh yes!! I am glad my incessant gushing over Spark of the Divine has launched it up your TBR heheh, I really think you will have such a blast with it! Mushroom Blues and the novella The Rest to the Gods are also amazing imo, the break-ins are ruling the indie scene right now haha. Also really enjoy seeing you get excited about all the Ize Press book mail you got, even though I know nothing about those stories. They sound fun!! 🤩

    I just got my copy of The Lies of Locke Lamora from the Broken Binding today! I haven't read the series yet. I am looking forward to it. My first sub series from The Broken Binding. I also got A Time of Dragons and Never Die from BB today. They had some issues with sending to the EU for a while, so all the April books came only now. And Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell from Folio Society came last week.

    • @PetrikLeo
      @PetrikLeo  7 місяців тому +1

      The Folio Society edition of Jonathan Strange looks absolutely beautiful. I'm not a fan of the book otherwise I would've splurged on it, too. I loved the tv adaptation, though. And hey, if Locke Lamora is your first sub-series, this means the second sub-series you get from The Broken Binding will have me involved the production! :D

    Gormenghast is absolutely fantastic!!! Peake was very experimental in his writing, and a genius (his characters are very Dickensian and I love them all, but especially Fuchsia!), but you will notice a drop off in the final book, but that is due to Peake's health badly declining at that stage and he stated that he really struggled with writing the 3rd book. His later life is very sad and he died WAY too young 😞
    His Dark Materials is fantastic, and the show (not the movie lol.) Great haul, Petrick! 🙂
