What book are you reading...

Just started the Mistborn - The final Empire from the Cosmere series by Brandon Sanderson. Not too bad so far.

You're in for a treat, IMO. It took me two goes to get into it but then I was hooked. Loved the trilogy. The second trilogy is excellent too.

Is there a particular order to read the Cosmere books? I read they are all interconnected despite being separate?
 
I'm about 75% the way through Sherlock Holmes and the Servants of Hell and though I expected some silly half baked horror, it's really well written and pulls in characters from the first 4 hellraiser movies in a really grounded, well as grounded as this material can be, fashion.

If there is an order I'm not aware of it. TBH, the Cosmere is such a huge undertaking that I just read the various series as I fancy and smile if I find an Easter egg link.

I think the only Strugatsky book I read was one with some guy time travelling to the renaissance, or similar? Edit: hang on, I think he was dropped off on a primitive planet which was in the renaissance, rather than time travelling?

Sounds like "Hard to be a God". He's a member of a superior race, tasked with observing, but not interfering, with a war-like inferior race on another planet. But he finds it impossible to keep aloof as his mission requires.
