The Heroes by Joe Abercrombie

Flawless storytelling in Lord Grimdark’s fifth entry of his fantasy epic, just superbly well done and crucial to the overall development of the series - I wish I had read these in order.

Seeing Like a State by James C. Scott

This historical treatise has a lot of notoriety but I found it unnecessarily dense, and ultimately flawed, in that its focus on states and state power ignores a related discussion of capitalist power, such that altho there is a useful perspective to glean here about how a drive for social legibility can transform a society, I wouldn't recommend the book overall.
