Does anyone know if it's possible to get this without the New York Times imprint on the cover? (As a paperback.) I would also love no words on the moon but at least that doesn't interfere with the cover artwork. I abhor that they do this to covers. And it is literally printed into the cover and not a removable sticker. Why do they do this!? 😡

iread2much That is very irritating 4d
bookishbitch @iread2much I did see some online that do not have that yellow eyesore. I will be holding out for that copy. 3d

The ending of this one is very satisfying (even though there is quite a bit left open for the next couple books). I‘d taken a big gap between this & the previous installment & it did take a bit to get re-orientated but then the pace picked up. Like the vampire, Geralt & Dandelion‘s banter (as always) I don‘t think the series does well at keeping the pacing evened for each character since the short stories.

Several people have recommend Sanderson to me. I decided to give this one a go because (1) it's not over 500 pages & (2) it's a stand alone.

Honestly, I almost DNF'd it because I got bored & kept putting it down. I finally started skimming it just to see how it resolved. I realize I'm not the target demographic for this book, & maybe that's the issue. Overall, it was just okay, but it doesn't make me want to pick up any of his other books.

Ruthiella I think you could read the first Mistborn novel as a stand alone. It is 600+ pages, however. I read that trilogy and am happy to not read any further. But I understand the draw. He‘s so popular, it‘s hard to not have FOMO. 😃 1w
wanderinglynn @Ruthiella I‘ve picked up the first Mistborn book so many times when at a bookstore, mostly because people keep recommending it to me, but for some reason, I‘ve never gotten it. It just never called to me. And after reading this book, I doubt I‘ll ever pick it up or anything else he‘s written. I just didn‘t dig his writing + there are too many other books on my TBR. 1w
Laughterhp I‘ve tried to read Sanderson a few times too, but he‘s just not for me.. I bailed on this book. I read the first Mistborn but I think I only got through it because I read it on audio. 1w
wanderinglynn @Laughterhp glad I not the only one 🙌🏻 1w

This was an absolute delight of a read! I would even go as far as to say it was right silly at times😆 Tress sets out on a dangerous voyage on the spore seas to find her love, Charlie. From pirate ships, to dangerous water activated spores to a wish granting dragon the book is not short on adventure!

4.8 ⭐️ well damn… I like that a lot better than I thought would. But seriously, what is up with all these cliffhangers. Mind you, this one‘s not as bad as some of the others have been as of late. Anyways, this is a great book. Definitely got some action, some minor romance, and like one spicy scene. But the betrayal… wow, little intense.

A happy little flop 😀

Decided I'm here for the blood and ash series and the flesh and fire series. Of course then I thought this book was in the flesh and fire series since.... It's literally what it's called but how silly of me to think that.
