Hello everyone. As it is Black History Month I invite you all to chill and read Black titles from across the diaspora. I have some recs that I shared on PBS -- go forth and read and we will have a Black History Month Book Club Night on the 28th at 6pm EST where I will do an academic breakdown of The Crown's Silence: The Hidden History of the British Monarchy and Slavery in the Americas as a treat. All are welcome.

March we will start reading another series and the options are:

  • ELRIC!! (lol)

  • The Indian Lake Trilogy by Stephen Graham Jones

  • The Burning Kingdoms by Tasha Siri

  • The Golden Compass by Phillip Pullman

  • The Liveship Traders by Robin Hobb

  • The Inheritance Trilogy by N. K. Jemisin

  • Dune by Frank Herbert

As always, book club meetings are held on the discord. A new thread is opened every month in the #bookclub channel for each book club pick. You can discuss the book as you read here if you like (while using spoiler tags when appropriate)

poopee doodee

My heart longs to re-read The Inheritance Trilogy

e.lonnrot

okay, which series are you pulling for?

Keegan Sullivan

I'm the reason Elric has lol next to it haha

e.lonnrot

What’s the pitch for Elric? I’ve heard of Moorcock, but not for any of his works specifically.

Keegan Sullivan

So it came up specifically during the Witcher book club because a lot was inspired by Elric (including reusing the nickname the White Wolf) in that series. But specifically Elric was one of the major inspiration for modern dark fantasy. It kind of pioneered many of the tropes and was paid homage to in several modern works including A Song of Ice and Fire for some of the Targaryen history (like the dragon riding), The Legacy of Kain video game series with a champion of balance wielding a soul draining sword, I'm told Stormlight by Brandon Sanderson draws elements from Elric, several D&D magical weapons and the Hexblade Warlock subclass are direct inspirations, etc. etc. So it has played a large role in constructing the fantasy genre but has faded further from public discourse unlike say the Lord of the Rings has.

e.lonnrot

That’s really interesting! Like you said, I wasn’t aware of these connections. Although I just skimmed GR, and it seems there are anywhere from 9 to 13 books in this series?! 😭😭

Keegan Sullivan

Yeah but they're pulps and only like 200 pages tops so they are blessedly really quick reads :)

e.lonnrot

okay, okay, just psychologically, my motivation to start a new series nosedives when it extends past 5-6 books.

Keegan Sullivan

I totally get that, I'm typically similar in that regard. The whole series has been printed into 3 big compilation books now. Which are basically normal sized books haha

e.lonnrot

Will keep all this in mind the next time the poll goes up. After all, what are book clubs good for, but to push one pick up series that one otherwise wouldn’t?
