Mine is the wings of fire series, it is a "kids" novel (think like warrior cats age range)

But Tui T sutherland is so good at writing characters and introducing and describing worlds and characters that i reread it every so often. Like, she managed to write a book from the pov of a mind reader and it works.

Every book is from a different character's pov and each character feels wholly unique.

The main issue with the series is that the plot is kinda average at best, the characters really carry the story.

We are Legion (We are Bob). It's probably the most fun I've had reading science fiction. It's not a masterpiece, but damn is it entertaining! The whole series is pretty great, and there's another book coming any month now.

In a similar vein I'm really enjoying the Murderbot series by Martha Wells. It has a similar feel and it has an addictive action pace with snippets of deadpan humor and wit. If it was a movie it would be a popcorn muncher.

Thanks for the recommendation! I'll check that out after I finish A Little Bit of Hatred.

I love this series as well. Definitely not a masterpiece, but it is great sci fi.

I have no idea. Sorry. But if you can't afford to buy the book in a better format, then just read it from there! I don't think Dennis will miss nine dollars or whatever the book costs.
