While I do enjoy a grimdark, I grew up with morally virtuous characters. There's something about the good guy actually being good and doing the right thing despite it not being the easiest thing that's very appealing. I think Brandon Sanderson does a very good job of this. He has characters who span the spectrum, so you get a nice mix within each book/series. I think that's a better approach than all characters being one way or the other.

I like this. Ok, lets talk Honer Harrington by David Weber. Rand Al'thore, Lan Mandragoran, Wheel of Time by Robert Jordan. Bolo books by Keith Luamer. Allanon, the Shannara series by Terry Brooks. Just to name a few. It's what made me have a hard time reading Game of Thrones. I hated that the one good leader was killed off right at the beginning. I know some of the characters went on to be amazing but damn it was hard for me. Great subject. Thanks for tickling my brain.

I agree about Streets of Laredo. It was Dark and Violent! And I just really did not enjoy it. However, You say Commanche Moon is okay? I skipped a little of video for fear of spoilers. So you recommend Commanche Moon? I'm going to read it anyway I just want to be assured it's not too dark and Too violent? Thank you for sharing. I enjoyed it. -James

@geauxreadbooks 2 месяца назад
@@Littlebiglibrary Thank you for you comment James. I don’t think my comments on Comanche Moon contained any spoilers. To be clear, all of the Lonesome Dove books were dark at points, with some being darker than others. I wouldn’t say that CM was any darker than Lonesome Dove. Streets of Laredo was just depressingly dark for me.

Martin's « A Song of Ice and Fire»), «The Prince of Nothing» Trilogy by R. Scott Bakker (Grimdark/Dark Epic Fantasy inspired by the Crusades, Silmarillion & Dune), «A Brightness Long Ago» by Guy Gavriel Kay (Historical Fantasy inspired by Renaissance Italy) and (maybe) the final two «Expanse» Novels by James S.A. Corey (Space Opera) by the end of this month.
