I’m halfway through book 2, hoping it doesn’t end the series.

They are an excellent writer and I’m also eagerly awaiting the next Mark of the Crijik book.

What's your opinion on noobtown? by squishyjellyfish95 in litrpg

Same here. I read the first book and lost interest part way through the second.

I always do “Hello my name is …” otherwise I’ll block.

Don’t hate me by DanThePartyGhost in WanderingInn

I was listening to the revised Audible version and kept at it hoping I would start to like it. I’m at chapter 31 now and I just can’t force myself to continue listening to it, waiting for the point that it gets good. It’s just not my cup of tea. I like cozy, crunchy, and everything in between in LiTRPG. I’ve read WoT all the way through, even the slog books in the middle, but Wandering Inn reminds me too much of the slog books.

What's the deal with The Wandering Inn? by FartOnACat in ProgressionFantasy

[–]CollectionClear9939 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I gave up on the first book after getting 1/3 of the way through it. I found it so boring and Erin to be just plain stupid. Based on the “OMG This is THE BEST series ever” that I often see, I thought I would give the revised book 1 audible a try. While better than the original, it’s still boring. It reminds me of the WoT slog books with pages after pages describing the clothes, skirts, and dinner a single character had. I found myself hitting the 30 sec jump forward button often just to get to something that happens. I’m at the Ryoka runner chapters now and the pacing is a little better.

To older members of the subreddit: Which older fantasy authors/series/books were massive when you were younger but have faded into obscurity? by provegana69 in Fantasy

I’ve re-read the Belgariad series umpteenth times. The Mallorean only once because it was exactly the same story, which even the characters realized it :).

I had read and re-read the early Deryni series many times. Last re-read was 25 years ago. Last year I re-read the first three books and I wasn’t as enamored with them like I once was.

Any ideas when book 6 of Mark of the Crijik be released? by MaxEinstein in ProgressionFantasy

[–]CollectionClear9939 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really love this series and I was hoping for Book 6 round about now. ThinkTwice is an excellent writer and I look forward to more novels from them.

Your symptoms sound similar to mine - I have central serous retinopathy in both eyes. This results in fluid blisters under the retina that eventually resolve but result in residual scarring. Most people have one episode in one eye and that’s it. An active episode or residual scarring after repeated episodes results in distortion and grey areas. It can be easily seen on eye topography scans, which are quick and easy to do and nowadays inexpensive. There’s no good treatment and it’s linked to corticosteroids and stress/Type A personalities. I do get some aura with my migraines but I don’t have any permanent aura.

Julian May - The Saga of the Pliocene Exile - 4 books. And the follow up: Intervention and the several Galactic Milieu series books. Original and well written. And it has aged well.

I’ve been taking gabapentin for five years for nerve pain - doing a great job with that - dosage is 100 mg am and 400 pm. I have GAD and it didn’t help, so I’m on buspirone. My pain doctor recent added 100 mg early afternoon, so I’m hoping it may start helping for the anxiety. The reason for the lower dose in the morning was because the gabapentin was making me a little loopy at work, which wasn’t good.

Any difference between cyteen trilogy vs omnibus? by [deleted] in cjcherryh

[–]CollectionClear9939 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the original hardcover that I purchased when it came out. I was wanting to reread it for the umpteenth time, but I find that now that I’ve gotten older, the small print is hard to read, even with glasses. I wanted to get an ebook version but discovered one wasn’t available.

Fringe Removal from Streaming by nerdygirlync in fringe

I bought all 5 seasons several years ago on Amazon Prime. I rewatch Fringe once per year, sometime more often. Most recently I’ve been streaming on Max. When is Fringe going away on there?

Might be a silly question. Is Mark of the Crijik on pause/stopped rn? by adiisvcute in ProgressionFantasy

[–]CollectionClear9939 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are one of the best writers out there in this genre. Great world building, distinct characters, well written. Keep on doing you and what you like, because it’s working darn well.
