I love Neal Asher’s books, found him a long time ago in one of those “year’s best” collections of short stories from the library (though the ones with fantasy and horror were always the best, I think I read every single collection for every year and found so many good writers that way.)

They are full of action, good characters and worlds and ideas, sweeping and huge settings. Feels almost more like watching a movie to read them.

Who among us likes these action packed stories?

    Both full Discworld readthroughs were publish order lol. The last go round included Shepherds Crown.

    And discworld has so much going on it prolly only matters for individual series. I have a cat named Eskarina and I’m sure a lot of readers barely remember her.

      Discworld is the one exception for me because early Pratchett is much weaker, and he bashes one of my OTHER favorite authors which makes me frowny. And he has coherant sub-series with their own little casts of characters and it’s easy to jump in with those. (I started with Guards! Guards! and the Night Watch and went forward/backwards from there.)

      Everything else though I read publish order, though.
