The book in the Tarot Sequence

Oh man, I need to catch up on that series... I got spoiled for something in The Hourglass Throne -- to be fair, by reading a clearly marked spoiler review, so that's 100% on me -- and have been low-key avoiding it as a result. But I do miss Brand and this bonkers world, so I should get over that.

A Book I Don't Recommend in My Favorite Genre(s): Wheel of Time series

Haha -- I was deeply into epic fantasy in the 90s but somehow managed to dodge that bullet :)

The Tarot Sequence is unfortunately vulnerable to spoilers cause of all the twists and turns, but it's definitely still worth the read if you liked the first two books. The drama and humor is all still there!

Wheel of time legit put me off fantasy for almost a year after I had been devouring it up until then.

I've read JS&MN a couple times and I love rereading that tome! I always spot something new.

It's an intimidating reread for me cause it's so chunky, but it's soooo good.
