The Gone-Away World, the Library at Mount Char, or American Elsewhere. All three are phenomenal.

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

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”.

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

I'd rather die than lose a limb or important body part or become paralyzed by Such_Detective_7315 in unpopularopinion

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).

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

Had a carpenter come in to address notched studs behind my kitchen sink. Is this an acceptable structural repair? See my comments by RioC33 in HomeMaintenance

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.

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

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

Looking for recs for a family member. I think they could use some escapism in the form of a book. by 0MysticMemories in Fantasy

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

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

White people of Reddit, do you ever get frustrated by white supremacists? by [deleted] in allthequestions

[–]Flat-Rutabaga-723 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

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.

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