I love books recommended on here but unless I specify you mfs will recommend theory. You all read anything captivating without overt political themes?

This week I'm working through China Meiville's Bas Lag trilogy. Just started the Third Book. First time reading him, I'm in love.

I recently read Manhunt by Gretchen Felker-Martin, which was really good.

Oh, also read Octavia Butler's Kindred. Awesome stuff.

He's currently collaborating with Keanu reeves on a novel about an 80 thousand year old warrior.

I'm happy he writing again, but it's a weird collaboration

Are you sure it isn't one of the spin offs? He released one of those recently.

Looking at the wiki the third book doors of stone isn't out
