Hey, nerdheads, what's a good book you've read recently?

I’m making my way through the Strugastky brothers’ works, found out about them through roadside picnic but i just finished “Monday starts on Saturday” and enjoyed it just as much. Edit to add: it’s a science fiction novel from the perspective of a soviet programmer who stumbles into magic. He meets a lot of people for whom magic is mundane, and the book does such an awesome job describing his confusion and curiosity vs everybody elses acceptance of it as day-to-day. Its also super funny :)

damnfinecoffee,

I’ve been on a nostalgia trip reading the Legend of Drizzt series. I’d normally go for fantasy that’s darker or verges more on weird fiction, but I read the Drizzt books as a kid and Baldur’s Gate 3 made me want to read them again.

About to finish book 10, I’ve enjoyed a good amount of them but I am starting to see how Drizzt’s plot armor gets old after a while, haha

KaleDaddy,

Just reread Lost Gods by Brom. The only book I’ve ever reread. Imagine if darksouls took place in the 70s, but with a bit more real world mythology influence. Its my favorite book
