My reading list

I read different book series and a specialist book at the same time. When choosing my next book, I always wanted an overview. This page was created out of this wish. Here you will find books from both the private sector (mainly fantasy and thrillers) and professional environments.

Shadow elf -The weeping city (volume 5)

The fifth book concludes the series. All the story threads are brought together conclusively—at least. However, this happens in a finale in the last 50 pages that, for my taste, is too brief. Before that, the narrative delves into many details and slows down the pace to make the finale all the more spectacular. I wish Bernhard had devoted more time and pages to the many heroes and their roles at the end, so I could learn what the outcomes mean for them.

Dead Dungeon - Dungeon Master (Volume 6)

Volume 6 shows why delegation and trust as a dungeon master are a double-edged sword. The story is used to unexpected twists. In addition, there is the steady development of the protagonist, which surprises readers just as much as the hero. The story is continued at an incredible pace, giving me a lot of fun while reading.

Dead Dungeon - Dungeon Assault (Volume 5)

In volume 5, the dungeon is attacked by alien forces, and the Dungeon Master must wage a determined defensive battle with all his resources and allies, driving character and world development. The series remains true to the LitRPG genre: there are system elements, level progression, and tactical challenges in the fight against the invaders.

The ranger way part 18

As the title suggests, the situation in the kingdom is escalating. A great battle for supremacy is raging. At the same time, the Panthers are searching for the legendary weapons. This time, not as a team, but individually, they must play to their strengths. Urvi describes this in his thrilling and romanticized way—an excellent continuation of the story.

Review "Rapt: Attention and the Focused Life"

In Rapt, Winifred Gallagher demonstrates the crucial role our attention plays in achieving happiness and a high quality of life. Instead of being dictated by external factors, we can consciously choose what we focus on—and thus actively shape our lives. A book full of everyday insights that makes it clear: Those who control their attention shape their reality.
Is attention the second superpower? I claim that storytelling and attention are the most effective soft skills.
