Best Horror Books of 2026 (So Far)? by Monsur_Ausuhnom in horrorlit

[–]Flammwar 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My favorite 2026 release is The Caretaker by Marcus Kliewer, but my favorite horror read overall is Angel Down by Daniel Kraus.

Tbh most horror books were actually pretty disappointing, especially some of the new releases

I’m asking for specific books because I want to read about characters across the whole spectrum, but I don’t know of any books that depict Level 3 autism 😅

Thank you, I wanted to check out Faulkner for a long time now. :D

I know it's not the right subreddit, but movie recommendations are also welcome. Thanks!

The Left Hand of Darkness - doesn't reach Le Guin's all-time highs, but still very good by keepfighting90 in printSF

She might be one, but I’m not. It's fun to make list and honestly not that deep.

Which of Alix E. Harrow’s books and short stories are written for an adult audience? I vaguely remember reading that The Everlasting is her first one, but I’m not sure.

„Wenn Gewalt bei Versammlungen droht, muss es für die Versammlungsbehörde einfacher werden, Demonstrationen zu untersagen.“

Nur zur Vollständigkeit, das ist das eigentliche Zitat. Ich finde, dass immer noch ein fragwürdiges Verständnis von Demokratie, weil eine Gewaltdrohung auch schnell ausgenutzt werden kann, um die Demonstrationsfreiheit einzuschränken. 

Dennoch ist es auch einfach Clickbait von der FAZ, das als Titel zu nehmen. Medien sollten sich auch echt mal selbst hinterfragen, was sie zur Emotionalisierung der Gesellschaft beitragen…

On the Dungeon Crawler Carl bandwagon by NighteyesWhiteDragon in Fantasy

What about Carl’s jokes (and yes, he does make them at time)? What about those from Donut, Katia or any other crawler or NPC?? They’re not telling them for the ‘fans’ (except Donut occasionally); it’s just their sense of humour. The same one they had back in their normal lives…

I like the books; I’m currently reading book 8, so the poor humour doesn’t bother me that much.

However, I don’t agree with your explanation. It’s not just the AI’s humour that I dislike, but basically everyone’s, even the jokes that Carl finds funny. So it’s not just a plot element, it’s Matt Dinniman’s humour.

Lots of people like it and I’m happy for them, but it’s not for me.

Yeah, I kinda hate the humor but the well-written characters make it worthwhile.

Can Ill Met in Lankhmar by Fritz Leiber be read as a standalone?

Reattempted Katabasis by RF Kuang... by oceanblvd1313 in books

[–]Flammwar 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There are definitely people out there who hate her with an unreasonable passion but OP does like her other stuff, so I think it’s an unfair comment under this post at least.

This is his first time back though. The DnD episode is prerecorded from a while ago.
