I have fond memories of Sphere from back in the day, though I haven't touched a Crichton book in a few decades now. For a long time, my pulp guilt pleasure was Robert B Parker, but the last few times I've wanted pulp, I've gone for Elizabeth Moon's Paksenarrion books for pulp fantasy specifically. Haven't been so much into non-genre pulp in a bit.
I've not tried to get into any fantasy pulp fiction, but I have been on a big fantasy kick overall this year so I may have to check this out - thanks!
Oh, the deed of paksenarrion is a great choice if you're looking for a good, easy-reading fantasy trilogy with a very satisfying arc. It basically reads like a very well made d&d campaign.
Whelp, as someone who is currently on a Baldur's Gate binge, you've sold me - will add to my TBR!
oh yeah, you're gonna like it then :D glad to share, it's not high literature but it's been one of my favourite comfort reads for many years.
