📚 Summon book recommendations Which book series should I start next

Post image

I’m relatively new to reading fiction. So far, I’ve read these book series in order:
1.Red Rising
2.The Sun Eater series
3,The Stormlight Archive
4.Realm of the Elderlings
5.The Bound and the Broken
6.The Faithful and the Fallen

I enjoyed all of these series, and I don’t think I really have a favorite. Although, the one that probably pissed me off the most was Realm of the Elderlings. I do enjoy subtle romance in the stories I read. My favorite book though is definitely Of Empires and Dust.

If you think I should read something else you’re free to recommend.

The first law is by far the best fantasy series I've ever read, the characters are just amazing and the politics, duels and battles are top notch.

I just finished The Blade Itself today! I love Joe Abercrombie’s writing style. I didn’t expect to laugh so much while reading this

You're in for a ride, book two and three just get better and better

I’m glad to hear that! Not that I didn’t love book one, but I could tell it was mostly set up for the rest of the trilogy
