Cached US #KindleBookGiveaway: 10 copies of @robertjbennett.bsky.social's Foundryside (The Founders Trilogy Book 1), which I *have* and *have read* and *have given out before*. This book is a *hoot*: one of the characters can open magical locks, in a manner I described as (James T.) Kirking them.

I have finished reading #Foundryside. It did indeed end more or less the way that I expected. What I will say is that the book isn't necessarily predictable in the sense that it is just following expected tropes and such. It is foreshadowing things, but I feel like it has a very heavy hand in it, such that I wouldn't call it foreshadowing so much as telegraphing.

I have 1 hour and 10 minutes left in the audiobook for #Foundryside. About to go for my daily walk, might go ahead and finish it. I'm at a point in the book now where all of the things I've expected to happen since very early on in the book are happening. Does that mean it's predictable, or that it's good at foreshadowing?

Let's see how the book ends.

The differences between my experience of #Foundryside so far and the glowing praise that I see for this book elsewhere... I don't know if my tastes are just shifting away from #fantasy or what. It's certainly not the only example of this in recent years. The work of Wil Wight is another good example.
