I'm currently very slowly making my way through The Invincible by Stanislaw Lem. Still in the setup phase about 20% of the way through; looking forward to seeing how it goes.
Last week, read/finished The Faerie Hounds of York by Arden Powell. Heavier on the romance than I normally go for, but the actual plot was intriguing, and the fae were thankfully kept quite alien. Kinda insta-lovey, kinda eye-roll romance trope-y in places, but if you don't mind that, it might be worth a look.
After the game came out, I also read invincible, and solaris as well after watching the movie. Now I have developed a soft spot for soviet era sci fi.
Nice! Only thing I've read of that genre is Roadside Picnic by the Strugatsky brothers, so this'll be my second (recommended if you haven't checked it out yet).
