A few years ago, I stopped looking for the best newspaper. Instead, I started building a media ecosystem where different outlets complement and challenge one another.

I’m about halfway through A Wizard of Earthsea, and I’m really enjoying it. What appeals to me most is that the magic is tied to responsibility, balance, identity, and personal growth, rather than flashy displays of power. The characters feel deeply human and imperfect. Exactly my kind of fantasy.

I just finished "The Falling Woman" by Pat Murphy. I did not like this book very much. My final rating is 2/5. Review at the link below. #Fantasy #bookreview app.thestorygraph.com/reviews/29f1...

"[…] I'm fascinated by concepts of other realities, other ways of doing things. Nothing is fixed, nothing sacred, nothing metaphysically determined—it's all contingent on process and evolution. 1/2

I finished Uprooted by Naomi Novik. An excellent novel that didn't really work for me. More details in my review at the link below. #booksky app.thestorygraph.com/reviews/118b...

I just finished "The Healer's War" by Elizabeth Ann Scarborough. It’s a 3.5/5 for me. I’m glad I read it, and some parts will stay with me, but it wasn’t a tremendous experience either. Review at the link below. #fantasy #bookreview app.thestorygraph.com/reviews/88c4...
