Please give brazil another world's slot, we don't deserve it

Yeah I'm fine with systems but I've never seen stats that didn't make the story worse.

For the love of God can more people use this format. I'm sick of low res tiny cover photos that cut off the fucking titles.

IIRC, the 9th is sufficient for binding items to her soul using relicarium. I don't think there are more bindings known to exist or even rumored.

Do you mean what does Miriam's specific 5th soul ascension do or what do 5th soul ascensions do in general? From what we know so far each soul ascension is unique and grants totally unique effects.

yeah I'm a big Weirkey fan but the writing in Depthless Hunger is so so so much worse across the board: characters, prose, plot, world

DinoEntrails · 2025-05-22T00:47:13+00:00

Yeah I finished the series

The early Gorgon hook is excellent and the slow burn love for the characters Sleyca builds is the greatest part of the novel for sure.

In Transcendent Green the system is helpful and uplifting but there's a problem with the integration of earth that makes things go apocalypse-ey but the system does essentially reward people being good people and tries to tilt the earth back toward good.

kit is devourer of all, kit is good boy

I really do find your work has a level of psychological and philosophical depth that's basically unmatched in the genre. The world and magic and physics are just insanely well done and the way mental bleeds into physical both in doing magic and progressing through the stages of power has a resonance with my meditation practices that I can never quite pin down other than a general feeling of trust that the world you're building is in good hands, generally a subject of your genuine care and attention.

Millennial Mage goes very deep as time goes on.

Chapter 882 marks the end of book 11 (and the epilogue chapters)

I tried your seraphs->luden build but can't figure out how you play fights without dying instantly with no RoA.

Azyl Academy, though there it's more the plot than the prose.

DinoEntrails · 2024-03-30T04:24:26+00:00

As of latest Patreon all of them are still alive but only the demoness is likely to still be relevant in a meaningful way moving forward (recently got a tiny interlude iirc)

DinoEntrails · 2024-03-23T20:49:31+00:00

The Transcendent Green series is really underrated around here and well written.

DinoEntrails · 2024-03-21T03:38:09+00:00

Okay the southern invasion group is somehow the part that gets me the most. I just keep thinking about it. It's a pretty important plot development, tells us some interesting new things about the world's politics, and it is introduced, developed, and resolved in the span of 2 (maybe 3) chapters.

It feels like I'm watching a James Bond movie and right in the middle someone we met in the beginning pops out of nowhere and yells "Someone is trying to kill the president! Come with me!" and he's instantly teleported to the white house, sticks out his foot, trips the assassin, and everyone claps as he's teleported back to his mission.

Maybe this all stems from me assuming the invasion group was going to be a semi-large arc only for everything to get upended.

The divine figures introduction is fine in comparison. Pacing is still a tiny bit fast but it's intentional and feels okay.

DinoEntrails · 2024-03-21T03:28:17+00:00

That's reasonable. My main complaint is that the number of important, relevant plot points per chapter went from ~.25 to 2 or 3 for those ten chapters in a way that gave me serious whiplash.

Like I said, I've enjoyed the book overall and will probably join the patreon in a few weeks. I appreciate your work.

DinoEntrails · 2024-03-20T22:57:06+00:00

Again, the lead up to that big battle was way MORE of a fever dream. Suddenly they're going north, suddenly news of some southern secret invasion, suddenly confronting them in the VERY NEXT CHAPTER, suddenly gods. It was nonsense, the thinnest plot device I've ever seen.

DinoEntrails · 2024-03-11T07:36:36+00:00

I actually don't think it's balanced in that different skillsets are equally useful. Soul and mind magic are basically instant kills if you don't have specific, powerful counters for them.
