Fairy Tale is so good. Also recommend Eyes of the Dragon if you haven’t read that. Another fantasy style book in the Dark Tower universe.

I’ve read the Foundation series 4 or 5 times, but it’s been years since my last reread. It’s definitely dry, but solid. Railsea is fantastic, so unique.

I’m in my reread year: Hobbit and LotR (this makes 15-16 times), Dark Tower, Foundation, and the SM Stirling series Dies the Fire.

I recently finished both Foundation (again) and the Dark Tower series. If you have it, I’d try either Railsea or Kraken by Mieville. You can never go wrong with Scalzi. You could also try Salt or Cod since you have Omnivore’s Dilemma.

Cascadia was a runaway hit, and now it’s back with a standalone version. Cascadia: Alpine Lakes from @flatoutgames.bsky.social adds stacking, lakes, new animals, and all new scoring options. Check out Andy’s review

Builders of Baldur's Gate from WizKids trades sword and sorcery for city planning; a euro game that teases strategic depth but doesn’t fully deliver.
