Preferably something scifi or fantasy or mystery or some mashup of those that has at least 3 books. I need something episodic I can download for all the upcoming travel.

I’m reading Mira Grant “Parasite” now. It’s good.
Caught up on Real Mira Grant’s “Incryptid” series. Always satifying Did you read “Book of Koli” trilogy by M. R. Carey? Very, very good scifi trilogy. M. R. Carey is really good. He has an early 4 or 5 book series under “Mike Carey” that is Urban Fantasy. His “The Girl with All The Gifts” was outstanding if you haven’t tried him. The Koli books are very different in that it is waaaaaay post-apocalyptic and I did *not* want to commit suicide at the end of the trilogy. I read a few of the “The Girl Who Could Move Shit with Her Mind”. Entertaining enough, but the protag is kinda whiny. I read Garth Nix’s original trilogy + the prequel and the final sequel. Very entertaining, but not new. Did you read the Malazan Book of the Dead series? They have many offshoot trilogies that are quite good, too. Neal Asher has a lot of trilogies set in The Polity universe. Space Opera! Christopher Fowler’s “Peculiar Crimes Unit” starting with “Full Dark House”. London crime! Weirdness! Humor! A shit-ton of books in the series. “The Coroner’s Lunch” Colin Cotterill. A series of mysteries set in Laos in 1978. Very genteel, very well-written, some magic realism. These are the opposite of the Scandinavian Crime set. Many books in the series Oh! Ak-Ak Macaque trilogy by Gareth Powell. Just go with it. It is 3.8 Metric Tonnes of Fun. Not for G-Man, Hater of All Things Fun. H says: Rita Mae Brown’s “Mrs. Murphy” series. Sandman Slim series: Kadrey is good, the series improves as it goes.

There are many reasons I love you, but this is one of them. So many options, so many th8ngs I haven’t read yet! (The only one in there I’ve already compled is the Incryptid series.) I’m pretty sure I’ve read Mike Carey before, but i’ll have to look it up. THANK YOU.

Looks like Ak-Ak Author has a real good Space Opera trilogy, too. Scalzi praises it. Also, re: Ak-Ak was tied for Best New Book with Lecke’s Ancillary Justice. That is one *angry* monkey.
