What should Orlion read next?

Post by Orlion »

So I'm running a similar poll on Facebook. Combined results will determine what 'genre book' I read next. This is necessary to keep me focused.

I didn't see option 5 on your FB poll, so I voted here. 8)

I've heard good things about Mistborn and the John Crowley novel, but I haven't read either one. So I voted for the one I've actually read....

Been thinking about rereading Black Company myself, but I vote for finishing A Clash of Kings first.

Oh, a change is coming, feel these doors now closing
Is there no world for tomorrow, if we wait for today?
