@bookstodon

Any recommendations for good SFF/speculative books that are written first person? My wife and I are really enjoying reading the Murderbot books aloud to each other. Part of that is the great writing and sparkling personality of the main character, but I think part of it is also the different vibe of first person writing, where the narrator is telling a story to the audience. I'd like to find more books like that.

Look, if I see you using the plagiarism theft machine (“AI”), even “just for the lulz”, I’m gonna think less of you.

Stop it. Just put the torment nexus down and do something else.

Never trust a fantasy author who claims that her series will definitely be seven books long. 😉

Marian L. Thorpe's Empire's Passing launches today. The eighth and final (allegedly) book in the stunning Empire's Legacy series, a fictional epic based on the history of Roman Britain.
