Path of Ascension has been terrible…

For my enjoyment of other things. I go out to the bars? I want to hear back early to keep reading. I’m at Thanksgiving dinner? I want to pop into the bathroom to read. I want to sleep? Nope it’s time to read. It hasn’t even lessened my enjoyment of those other things, it’s made the opportunity cost too high (reading).

I’m on Book 6 right now and it’s so enjoyable. I think the series does a great job at handling things like societal reform, slavery, moral and ethical issues, gender norms, etc etc. Very refreshing to have issues come up affecting both men and women, the weak and the strong, and have them approached according to their nuance by the MCs.

Just a fantastic series. The fights are fun, the characters are entertaining, and the scaling is great. I also like how the time gaps and scale has been!

Everyone go read it, but be careful.
