Finished reading the final book in the Rotstorm trilogy last night - one of those experiences where the page count is dwindling and you can't imagine how the hell this is all going to wrap up in time. 😱 Definitely one of my favourite series ever. A must-read for fantasy fans. 💙📚

Totally recommend The Spice Gate by Prashanth Srivatsa if you want something besides the stereotypical medieval fantasy. The worldbuilding, commentary on religion and caste... 👌

I loved The Gauntlet and the Fist Beneath by Ian Green, looking forward to reading the rest of the trilogy! Everything I want in a fantasy novel: tough yet vulnerable characters, intriguing religion/history, magic, dash of romance, violence, non-human races, cool worldbuilding, & badass slogans. 💙📚
