I have finished reading Dragonbone Chair.

It was good, but I forgot just how much it was less of an ending and more of a “this story is too big for one book so we’ll take a breather here”.

Finished The Dragonbone Chair, by Tad Williams (Memory, Sorrow, & Thorn Bk 1). Definitely some epic scope to this fantasy, & lengthy. I did it as an audiobook, & had to repeat some chapters - too much to retain & comprehend. But an enjoyable story! #Fantasy #SFF #DragonboneChair

So the next #fantasy series I have decided to tackle is “Memory, Sorrow, Thorn” by Tad Williams.
Thus far it’s nice and comofortable, you know? (I did listen to the first audio about a year ago but have been wanting to give it a proper read)
It reads like an even more epic variation on T.H. White’s “The Once and Future King” and I’m here for it!

"There weren't many things in life one truly _needed_. To want too much was worse than greed: it was stupidity - a waste of precious time and effort.

Unexpected #philosophy in #Fantasy books:

"Never make your home in a place. Make a home for yourself inside your own head. You'll find what you need to furnish it - memory, friends you can trust, love of learning, and other such things. That way it will go with you wherever you journey. You will never lack for a home -unless you lose your head, of course..."
