My greetings scribes. I'm looking for some books to occupy my writing time with. I just finished the first 3 A Song of Ice and Fire books and picked up the other 2, but I'm not sure how appealing they will be. If they turn out to be similar to The Name of the Wind, then I'll do the right thing and quit reading while I'm still sane. That book was such a drag...
Anyway, before this turn into a rant post, here's what I'd like to read: Books with a captivating plot, well developed and believable characters in a medieval(yet not set in stone) setting. I really enjoyed books like The Lions of Al-Rassan, the Mistborn Trilogy and The Pillars of the Earth(even though I haven't finished it yet). However, anything will go, as long as it doesn't tend to drag.
I'm not necessarily looking for books that pertain to the fantasy genre. A good sci-fi read is also welcome, and I'm even willing to give a supernatural novel a try, although I'm really not a big fan of vampires and werewolves. As long as the character development is there and they are not merely pawns for the plot, it will do.
Thank you for your time.
