I am about to finish Will Wight’s Waybound, and it’s just an adrenaline fueled blast of a conclusion to a series that I was not prepared to enjoy as much as I have.

I’d love some suggestions for progression fantasy series like Cradle, so if you have any please let me know!

    I don’t have suggestion, but Cradle series is just so good! I just finished Waybound yesterday and I am sad that the series ended.

    Yeah, they were a good ride! I found Arcane Ascension by Andrew Rowe to be kinda similar.

    Will Wight also has a few other series, and I think some of them are set in the same universe (though there isn’t really any crossover).

    His other books don’t have that same sense of progression though (though they’re pretty good in their own right).

      Thanks, added them all to my list!

      Why do you think the MC in Mage Errant and Mother of Learning put people off? If it’s a slow start thing, I don’t really mind - I’ve read through most huge fantasy series and the ones I’ve loved most seem to be those that take time to develop.

    The Noumena (soon to be) trilogy by Lindsay Ellis is pretty good so far. Bit more on the science fiction side though
