Welcome back after the holidays! Hope you had a good time, and your new year is starting well!

I didn't get much time to read, so still reading The Hero of Ages by Brandon Sanderson. Third and final book the of Mistborn series (first era).

What about all of you? What have you been reading or listening to lately?

I have always heard about African slave trades, not much about slave trades in Eastern Europe. Should look up something on the topic.

There's also a lot of other materiel written about Roman and Southern European slave trade during roman times and after the post-roman collapse in the so called dark ages.

Humans have been kinda the worst for most of history, pretty much everywhere.
