picked up the codex alera books again. i forgot how good it was. each book always starts out kinda slow and i'm always like ugh. this is some boring ass bs. then 3 minutes later it's awesome and everyone is fighting for survival again and tavi is complaining about always having to be the hero.

Grats!


I'm at a point where I have trouble falling asleep most nights if I don't have a book to read

I still think the first book reads like something he wrote as a teenager and 'fixed up' to release.

However, the books get exponentially better with each successive book. By three or four I was obsessively chain reading them to the end.
