20. Covid has interrupted a lot of things!

I wanted to do some traveling, too. But nope. Can't do that, not yet.

I want to make a correction to my post about Tad Williams' new Osten Ard trilogy series. The third book in that series will be released in July, and it's called Into the Narrowdark. The book I mistakenly listed as the third is a new book set in the Osten Ard world, but it's not part of the trilogy.

If you are new to Tad Williams, i recommend starting with the first Osten Ard trilogy: Memory, Sorrow, and Thorn. The first book of that series is To Green Angel Tower.

It might not be a bad idea to explore a streaming service like Netflix. I think you can subscribe to Amazon Prime monthly now, too, instead of just annually. They have some outstanding fantasy, like Robert Jordan's Wheel of Time that recently premiered, and there's a Lord of the Rings prequel using some of Tolkien's other works coming next fall. Anyway, you can always cancel it if you decide it's not for you.
