The hero narrative is done really well here and it is exciting to watch the characters evolve. I highly recommend The Well of Ascension to those that enjoyed Mistborn. Next up: Book Three: The Hero of Ages! 

I was extremely impressed with the Sony A7iv. The continuous autofocus was super fast and accurate. It felt like the best autofocus I’ve ever used, even compared to the Canon R8 and R5, which have impressive autofocus. Also, having 33 megapixels was great and allowed for cropping more than would be possible with a camera with 24 megapixels. The dynamic range and lack of noise were also notable in all the photos I took. The photography quality was top-notch, and I highly recommend it for photography.

I went on a backpacking trip to the Twin Lakes in the Mt. Hood National Forest! Check out this video and photos.

I highly recommend Dungeon Crawler Carl for anyone who enjoys clever sci-fi and fantasy-style stories based on role-playing game mechanics. It has violence, humor, and suspense, and was a breeze to read through. I found myself finding it hard to put it down. Check it out!

I tried out the Sony A7IV and here are my first impressions and first photos!

The Final Empire is ruled by an immortal dictator known as The Lord Ruler. Before the Lord Ruler took power centuries before the events of this book the continent was ruled by a multitude of rulers who were constantly at war and as they fought each other the realm was in danger of being destroyed by a mysterious force known as the deepness. We don't fully understand what the deepness was but the world needed a hero to save it from impending doom. Somehow the Lord Ruler gained supernatural powers that made him invincible and over time brought all people together under one empire, The Final Empire, or is it? 

Tender is the Flesh is not for the easily disturbed as it paints graphic depictions of how humans could be treated if powerful people wanted it to be different. If powerful people wanted to make meat out of humans. Meat with names. 

He's out for justice, if he can have it. He learns the hard way that things don't always go as planned and sometimes the one seeking justice can end up on the wrong side of a noose but through it all he doesn't lose his way. He stays true blue and gains the respect of good men. He is a true Western hero. Guns of the Vigilantes is a fun and exciting Western tale with unexpected turns and real grit. 

I recommend this book to anyone that enjoys westerns and wants an easy read.
