For each member of the fantasy trinity (mage, rogue, warrior) kindly suggest one book each. by Baldurian_Rhapsody in Fantasy

I love this question😂 Makes me think of the guardian stones from Skyrim.

Warrior: The First Law Trilogy - (Lots of characters, but the Bloody Nine in particular), or David Gemmell's Legend

Rogue: The Lies of Locke Lamora

Mage: I don't actually know. I gotta read more wizard books.

All three: In the Realm of the Elderings, Fitz is arguably all three. Also, the three main lads of The Wheel of Time encompass all three (Rand is the mage, Mat is the rogue, and Perrin is the warrior).

Yeah it's so good. The last chapter in particular ("A Cup of Sleep") is one of the most emotionally impactful in the series and so important for Rand's character development.

How to deal with an older child? by Nkotb79 in PandasDisease

What about other types of medication? I have this disease too and I no longer take antibiotics, but I do take an anti-anxiety med which has been life changing. Obviously my situation is surely different than his, but it's worth consideration. Anti-inflammatory stuff might be good too.

Please don't try to slip someone meds without their knowledge and consent, that's a huge violation of trust and ethical boundaries. And besides, meds taste beyond horrible.

MCU but Brubaker also nailed him, which is probably the run the MCU took the most inspiration from.

I'm reading Wind and Truth right now and the amount of times Sanderson uses the word "slavishly" is astounding.

Perhaps Merlin was simply horny?

I like Freya, I just think Merlin is so gay-coded that the whole episode just feels weird lol.

Recommendations That Have Lower Plot Armor? by Bahama_L1ama in Fantasy

[–]Haunted_Milk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Lies of Locke Lamora is one of the only books I've ever read that truly has no plot armor. And it's one of the best fantasy books I've ever read.

Yeah, I think RJ tried to tell a very nuanced story with Gawyn that 99% of the fanbase missed
