Just finished Prophet Song.
A cautionary tale about a future Ireland where trade unionists are summarily locked up, where rebellion against right wing authorities is the only option.
Its a difficult read, style wise. But its also very rewarding.
If books are angry with TV, they must now be furious with Smartphones.
Read Wolf Hall, worthy of the praise it recieves. Gonna have a lighter book before moving onto the second in the trilogy, a nice mental amuse bouche to cleanse my brain before tackling Bring out the Dead

I am firing up the nerd signal here. I was looking for something to send to my 16 year old nephew and found a box set of books about the first age. Those are familiar to most fans of the Tolkeinverse, but then I stumbled upon something I didnt know existed
This seems to be the closes thing there is any narrative of the second age, which is what Rings of Power is supposed to be telling. Could be interesting and seems well received based on the reviews
