I have taken almost a year long break from reading fiction to focus on non-fiction. I am ready to start reading fiction again, but after such a long break I have no idea where to start.
Here are some books I have enjoyed in the past:
- Dragon’s Egg (Robert L. Forward)
- The Damned Trilogy (Alan Dean Foster)
- Mage Errant series (John Bierce)
- Cradle series (Will Wight)
- Gods of Blood and Powder (Brian Mckellan)
- The Spiral Wars (Joel Shepard)
- Basically everything Brandon Sanderson has written


Since you’ve read Cradle and Dungeon Crawler Carl I’ll throw out the Divine Dungeon and Completionist Chronicles series by Dakota Krout. Both are progression focused, pun-laden, and very light-hearted. They are sometimes sloppy in tying things together, but they spark my imagination in ways most other books don’t. Technically Divine Dungeon is a prequel to Completionist Chronicles, but enough time has passed between them that it doesn’t especially matter.
