    I have so many books saved up that I've only read bits and pieces of each one so far, but these are all really good ones that I've read so far. The first one is quite convoluted and requires multiple readings. The second one is also very good. I haven't finished the third one yet; I heard it gets a bit weak towards the end, but the beginning is really great. If you don't like it, you can just read the beginning. The protagonist in the fourth one is incredibly powerful. There's actually a second part, but the author updates too slowly, only one chapter a month, and I'm afraid everyone won't be able to wait.
