I'm one of the people that haven't really picked up a book since High School, which was almost 14 years ago. I bought a Tablet and have picked up reading and have been enjoying it! I'm looking for book recommendations now and what to read going forward. So far I've only read:
The Kindred Curse Saga (Only 3 out of 4 books, as I believe the 4th is being written still)
Shephard Kings Curse
I really enjoyed these books and am liking the Fantasy / Dark Fantasy aspects of it. Here are some things I specifically liked about these two books:
- Unique Magic System
- Shephard Kings Curse was a "Magic comes with a cost / nothing is free" type of vibe which I liked
- The politics
- Alliances, betrayals, secret agendas, etc.
- The fighting, combat, and wars going on in these books
- Morally Gray areas / characters
- The Darkness of the world
- The world is actually a somewhat messed up place / lots of things that people don't realize going on with the world
- I talked about the combat/magic systems, but I do enjoy just a good story in general.
These books are both also considered "Fantasy Romance", which doesn't really both me. As long as the main, underlying theme is pretty much everything that I listed above, and the romance doesn't undermine the seriousness of the book, I'm fine with that.
I'll try to answer any questions that people might ask, or edit the post if some questions are asked to maybe help people understand what I'm looking for.
Thanks in advance!
