Day 3 – Your favorite series

Gotta be aberwyn's Deverry Cycle. Fantasy novels in which there is an internally consistent magical system, and in which we see the (realistic) material means by which Fantastical Adventuring takes place in a technologically less-advanced society -- and see that society develop socially in response to technological advances and human(/elf/&c.) migration? Oh yes please. Also all those 'it's a good story/ies' and 'I like things that fit together in a well-woven non-linear fashion' sorts of reasons, but mostly, I'm just a huge sucker for consistency.

Speaking of which, a special mention for a special sort of non-consistency that also works magical wonders has to go to the series/book-in-4-parts The Knot-Shop Man, by David Whiteland, who is also responsible for the best thing on the internet.

In other news, I have been in utter despair feeling sad about a number of Big Important Things going on in the world, like this and this and these (and reactions thereto). But I guess talking about books I like has made me feel a little better? So maybe I should get off the internet and go bury my head in the sand A Game of Thrones? Guess so. Also on the agenda for tonight: sleep!
