That can be arranged. I figure it'd be a nice use of GPT4 too 🤔

Here you go, a full list of every book recommended mentioned in this thread as extracted by GPT 4.
https://controlc.com/c36e0ac3
I won't be doing that again though. Running this full thread through GPT 4 was way more expensive than what I expected lol (nothing too bad, worth the experiment)

About to start Sixteen Ways to Defend a Walled City by K.J. Parker 
The Blacktongue Thief turned out to be an amazing read, one of my favourite books this year, reminded me a bit of Patrick Rothfuss' Kingkiller Chronicles books. Fun and very well-written
