Joe Abercrombies The First Law series is pretty decent. starts off like a Hobbit style cartoonish fantasy series then goes quickly into a lot darker stuff. also a lot of spin off novels and series for world expansion. dude writes FAST as well. i think the whole series was written in the time between Book 5 of a song of ice and fire and now. like 6 books or some shit.

it for sure gets better as the series goes on. world he builds is pretty dope and the characters get better and better.

Do you like graphic novels? If so, Saga, Y the last man or Paper Girls might be up your alley

i'll give it another shot.
we need some more malazan like writing though. so much seems shallow in comparison

sadly no, im an audiobook while i work/drive reader.



agreed, that series is so deep.

I think i would hate audio books. Why? Because sometimes the readers voice gets in the way of the fantasy.
The writer could have created great dialogue for an badass character, but the guy reading the lines might sounds like a dweeb and ruin it.

100% a narrator can kill a book for me, and by the same token, morgan freeman can carry a mediocre plot.
