Petrik LeoHi everyone! Today's video is a Reading Guide and my personal ranking of each book in The Sun Eater series by Christopher Ruocchio. The reading order of the main books in The Sun Eater by Christopher Ruocchio @SunEaterBooks is pretty straightforward. But if you are a completionist, you might have realized there are many companion titles and collections of short stories in the series. So, the question is, do you have to read them all to enrich your experience of the main books? Not really. I hope this video will be useful for you first-timer to The Sun Eater! :)

As I said before, this is not a professional vlog video. It's my first-ever attempt at a vlog, so bear with me here. Enjoy! :)

Today's video is a special edition review; an ASMR unboxing and flip-through review of the limited Suntup Press edition of Boy's Life by Robert McCammon. Boy's Life is one of my favorite books of all time. It is my favorite non-SFF standalone novel. Despite that, before the arrival of this edition, I did not own any physical copies of Robert McCammon's books. For years, I heard great things about @suntupeditions books, and after hearing they're going to produce this in January, I knew I had to own it. And here it is!
The cover art, endpaper, and 6 fully-colored interior illustrations are all done in an oil painting by David Palumbo. Suntup Press made the right choice choosing @dvpalumbo as the artist for this edition. The color palette and tone of every art are immaculate and on-point. I will let the video and his artworks speak for themselves. This limited edition is sold out now.
Let me know whether you acquired a copy of this edition, and what you think about it!

Today's video is about 10 underrated and underhyped fantasy books we've read. In this video, together with @libraryofaviking, we will talk about 10 fantasy books or series that we think deserve a higher readership than it currently has. Especially on Booktube. Let me know what you think about these books if you've read them! This is one of three videos from my UK trip. The other two will be vlog videos! :)
I need to emphasize that these are opinions, not facts. Just because a book is underrated or underhyped doesn't immediately mean that it's horrible, or that we're wrong for liking it. As usual, it all just means we have different reading tastes.
We also talked about overhyped books here on Johan's channel youtu.be/3rXi58dt80o

Here it is. It's been a while since I posted a book review here. After four years of having The Pillars of the Earth in my to-read pile, I finally read this book. This is the first book in the Kingsbridge series by Ken Follet, a highly acclaimed historical fiction series, and here's my spoiler-free review of The Pillars of the Earth. If you've read The Pillars of the Earth or the Kingsbridge series, let me know your thoughts on them. Which one is your favorite book in the series?

#thepillarsoftheearth #kenfollett #kingsbridge #historicalfiction #booktube #booktubesff #bookreviewTop 4 Hardest Bosses in Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree (Solo, Blind Playthrough)Petrik Leo2024-07-18 | Hi everyone! This is a VERY different video on the channel. But as mentioned, this will be a one-time thing just for fun. This is my fight against (in my opinion) the top 4 hardest bosses in Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree DLC. Essentially, these are the bosses where I died more than 10 times. All bosses are fought solo with no guide. I like punishing myself a bit when I'm playing these games. If you play Elden Ring, let me know who are the most difficult bosses you fought.
(The next video will be back to the usual bookish content!)

And not gonna lie, it hasn't always been easy keeping the channel running. Thank you so much for continuously watching my channel and supporting me. As I said, today's video will be about the five best books I've read from April until the end of June 2024. There will be no reread included in the top 5 list.
But at the end of the video, I will let you know what's the most disappointing and best book I have read this year. This includes all the books I read since January 2024. Enjoy, and do let me know what you think about the books I mentioned in the video. What are the best books you've read this year so far?

Today's video is about 10 amazing short fantasy books you can read in a day or two. Despite how much I love reading big fantasy books, short fantasy books are necessities as a palate cleanser and more. It is harder, for me, to find them. But they exist. Today, I will recommend 10 of them.
No novellas will be mentioned. All the books here are the first book of a series or a standalone novel. Let me know your recommendation on this topic! And your thoughts on these books!

#booktube #booktubesff #bookreview #may #wrapupA Conversation with Curious King!Petrik Leo2024-06-06 | Hi everyone! Today's video is different than usual. Instead of the usual conversation with authors, today's video will be a conversation with Anthony Kaye, the owner of Curious King. I have mentioned several times how much I'm a fan of Curious King production. Curious King specializes in limited-run publishing for SFF books. Their Blade Itself and Fifth Season production completely blew my mind, and today, I will be chatting with Anthony to learn about the art of bookmaking, what got him into this business, the future plans for Curious King, and many more. I hope you'll enjoy the chat!

Jemisin, Curious King Standard Amethyst Edition | A Special Edition ReviewPetrik Leo2024-05-31 | Hi everyone. Today's video is a special edition review; an unboxing and flip-through review of the limited Curious King edition of The Fifth Season by N.K. Jemisin! This is the first book in The Broken Earth trilogy. This edition is my fourth-ever letterpress special edition, and once again, I am simply flabbergasted by how incredible the quality is. Ever since owning a Curious King edition of The Blade Itself, I knew about the top-notch quality of Curious King production. And still Curious King managed to exceed my expectations.
The cover art, endpaper, and the 8 fully-colored interior illustrations are all illustrated by John Anthony Di Giovanni, an incredibly skillful artist and one of my favorite artists in the fantasy genre. I'll let the video and his artworks speak for themselves. This limited edition is sold out now, and I have permission from the publisher to spotlight all the interior illustrations!
Anyway, let me know your thoughts on this limited edition. Did you buy a copy of this edition? It is most likely the most beautiful and stunning book I own right now. Yes, at least on part with The Blade Itself. Even though I do love the cover art and thickness of The Blade Itself more. Thank you so much to the Curious King for sending me this amazing limited letterpress edition! And if you are a fan of super-high production value books, you cannot go wrong with choosing them. I cannot believe this is only their second publication. Totally magical.

Hi everyone! Today, I had the opportunity to chat with Christopher Ruuocchio, the author of the Sun Eater series, about the renewed success of the series. From revealing a new art piece of The Broken Binding Edition and also discussing Diamond and Anderida Edition, and of course about the state of the series itself, I hope you fellow Sun Eater fans will have a great time watching this chat.

Today's video will be about 7 amazing series worth reading beyond the first book. Epic grimdark fantasy, urban fantasy, science fiction, and historical fiction. For these 7 series I will talk about today, I have received many questions asking me whether it is worth persevering through the slow start of the relatively weaker first installment. I am happy to say yes. Sometimes there are some series that require reading past the first book before you can reap all the greatness of it. But how long should you stay or be patient with a series before quitting it? That is the main purpose of this video. To help you fully decide whether to continue or when to stop reading the series.
