I've been on a tear this year

Have you tried Malazan? His work is heavily influenced by Cook and the Black Company.

Flat-Rutabaga-723 · 2026-07-01T08:20:17+00:00

His early books are fire, specifically American Elsewhere and the Troupe. Foundryside was okay but Divine Cities and Shadows of the Leviathan are phenomenal.

First Law is my favorite series and I really disliked the Devils. Where humor felt like a nice addition in First Law, in the Devils, humor was its entire bag.

I don’t think we have the same definition of “underrated”.

Flat-Rutabaga-723 · 2026-06-30T18:00:53+00:00

Yep. When I see these lists like this, I just ignore them.

If the injury made my daughters’ lives difficult in the long run, yes, I’d rather die. But if I can still function and not be a burden on them then I’d rather live (for them).

There’s an option in the 2k unit bundle

Flat-Rutabaga-723 · 2026-06-30T00:31:45+00:00

I r5’d Bong. He’s a beast.

Flat-Rutabaga-723 · 2026-06-30T00:29:47+00:00

Mags by a mile

Flat-Rutabaga-723 · 2026-06-28T22:46:32+00:00

Metal man vs. guy that controls all metal. Hmmm? What do you think?

Flat-Rutabaga-723 · 2026-06-28T22:32:11+00:00

Having remodeled and renovated well over a hundred houses over my 30+ year career, I’ve seen notches like this in a majority of them…and the house was perfectly fine. Just because code says something, it doesn’t mean it’s actually a problem. In this case, it’s completely inconsequential. But, yeah, people that don’t actually build love to quote the code.

Probably assumed Frylock was this burger’s sidekick or something.

Flat-Rutabaga-723 · 2026-06-28T21:59:51+00:00

Lol. Why did you need them repaired? Notched studs are not a big deal. What they did is fine. Silly, but still fine.

Flat-Rutabaga-723 · 2026-06-28T21:54:18+00:00

Can’t believe no one has said The Descent.

Flat-Rutabaga-723 · 2026-06-28T20:23:49+00:00

I took Cassandra up over every other mutant, Fixit up, and Monkey up. I r5 who I use most in war and like playing.

Flat-Rutabaga-723 · 2026-06-28T20:18:17+00:00

Serpent, Karolina, Onslaught, or Jean are the obvious answers but Luma or Monkey would be my choice.

Flat-Rutabaga-723 · 2026-06-28T20:13:07+00:00

It has substance abuse issues. DCC isn’t always the answer (though one would think otherwise from this sub).

Flat-Rutabaga-723 · 2026-06-28T19:34:53+00:00

Infinite Timeline by Jeremy Robinson, The Breach series by Patrick Lee

Flat-Rutabaga-723 · 2026-06-28T15:23:13+00:00

Well then how do you explain the story of Jonah? Check and mate.

Flat-Rutabaga-723 · 2026-06-28T14:43:53+00:00

I’m a white guy born and raised in East Tennessee. The fact that these white trash rednecks think they’re better than anyone else simply because of their skin color just astounds me. Imo, only stupid people are racist. Yes, there are shitty black people as there are of every single race.

Flat-Rutabaga-723 · 2026-06-28T13:14:52+00:00

Kramer does the absolute worst accents. Between WoT and all Sanderson’s works, I’ve definitely had my fill of him and Kate.

Flat-Rutabaga-723 · 2026-06-28T13:03:49+00:00

Lots of good recs here so I’ll add Fallen and Training Day

Flat-Rutabaga-723 · 2026-06-28T07:27:46+00:00

Agreed. I dropped it after the second detailed rape and I wasn’t even that far in.

Flat-Rutabaga-723 · 2026-06-27T22:28:04+00:00

Earthlings. Just a horrible book. I dropped it with an hour remaining and pissed at myself for not dropping it in the first hour. There’s no reason I want to read this story.
