THE PRINCE OF NOTHING series by R. Scott Bakker

https://app.thestorygraph.com/series/6792

No idea how this amazing trilogy have eluded me for 2 decades!

"The best epic fantasy book I have read in a while. Tons of names, tribes, nations, cities, countries, factions, individuals clash in a massive once-in-a-millennium undertaking. What more does a bookworm need? Simply top-shelf stuff, imho. "

This one took me extraordinarily long. Felt like DNF at times, but I always went on in the end. Well worth it. The first half of the 20th century in #Japan from a less frequent perspective.

So, there's a #tvshow based on The Sympathizer by Viet Thanh Nguyen coming!

My inner bookworm tells me to stay away from it to spare myself another "book to TV show" disappointment. But, one never knows :)
