Just finished the TH books. Like Phil says, indeed lighter stuff

Read them after the great recommendations here.

I'll admit, the first two books (audio, on 1.3 speed) were a bit of a slog for me. I almost DNF. And compared to IGS (and comparison is unavoidable), amateurish. The third was better, and the fourth was excellent, making the series worth it :).
>!Specifically and especially, starting from zero but with full understanding - who does not dream about going back to 10th grade with what we know now and redoing it. Also, the deeper understanding of the world and the development of some of the MCs into 3D instead of flat 2D stereotypes. !<

IGS, is a true masterpiece. The character depth, the world descriptions and variety, and the phenomenal story. Can't wait for the 5th book. Hope there won't be a 6-month wait between the main release and the audio this time ;)

Phil’s worst enemy….Lost cube spoiler

The most vile, true fiend that Phill has been warning us of was revealed in the first book. All along it was bags/sacks of supplies.

The proof is in the pudding. Every single bag that Scorio has ever had gets destroyed within 2 chapters. I do challenge everyone to find a package/supply/knapsack/any other holding item that holds a non-mana type item in it that does not die a quick death

Skadi’s Saga

I know a lot of us are waiting for IGS 5 & Throne Hunters releases on the horizon so just wanted to hype Skadi’s Saga! Book one was awesome and had me hooked immediately and book two took the whole story up a notch. As great as the first two entries in this series are, they have me feeling like they were the groundwork for a true epic fantasy series to come. I’m hoping this series can get the flowers it deserves and that we get to hear more of Skadi’s story. If you haven’t read them yet this is your sign!

Key moments in the series

I've read up to Last Rock but decided to listen to the audiobook versions now, and Nick really kills the narration, making some of my favourite parts even better.

Just got to the part where the first year gauntlet winner is and I am even more giddy and excited to here more moments from the books.

This moment, the time when Scorio returns to the academy tempered in gold and when he finally fully transforms are my top favourite moments so far.

What are everybody else's favourite moments in the series? (Excluding lost cube as I haven't made it there yet)

Artwork I made of how I imagined the Blood Ox Fiend from The Great Immortal Souls Series [LastRock Spoilers]

I started this when I was in the middle of reading LastRock last year, but completely forgot about it. The description of the Blood Ox really stood out to me. He was a very memorable character I’ve wanted to draw my interpretation of him ever since.

I finally have a chance to jump into listening to Book 4 soon!
