Hello everyone!
I don't know about y'all, but there is nothing better for a commute than an Audiobook! So, here are some of my favorites that I'd love to share with y'all.
Red Sister (Book 1 of the Ancestor) and Grey Sister (Book 2), by Mark Lawrence
These are two of my all time favorite fantasy books! I absolutely love them! They tell the story of Nona Grey, the most huggable murderer ever, who is saved from execution by a convent. But it is not a convent that we would recognize, as the Church of the Ancestor trains deadly warriors, spies, and mages, in addition to the more traditional Nuns. This probably sounds very droll and boring, as this is nothing original, yet the way in which Mark Lawrence writes the story is absolutely breathtaking, the narrator is amazing, and the world the story takes place in is a fascinating blend of Sci-Fi and Fantasy.
I can't do the books much justice with my description, but what I will say is that, for a bildungsroman set in a fantastical world, with violence and political intrigue, you could not find a better (audio)book!
