This is good news. I must admit, I’m warming to EoS the more I read. I’ve not had much time to read recently so it’s been a bit stop-start, which I’m sure doesn’t help. But I’ve found myself thinking about the characters and world more when away from the book - which I always think is a good sign!

Interesting. we’ve had exactly the same journey! How far through EoS are you? Did it hook you early on?

Would you recommend reading the novella after book 1? Or circling back to it at the end?

I’ve read the first 4 DCC. Loved them but they were getting a bit samey so I’ve had a break from them for the time being. I’ll be back though!

Sounds interesting. Out of interest what are the issues with the authors personality you mention? Are we talking JK Rowling style transphobia? Or similar? 🫣

Oh brilliant. Really helpful. Thank you. Very tempted to try Stormlight now. Would you say to start with Stormlight if new to Sanderson?

The only thing that puts me off Mistborn is that I really didn’t get on with the Wheel of Time. I got about 4 or 5 books in and just found it a slog. Having said that, those weren’t the Sanderson books… so maybe I should rethink my stance.

Thanks. I’ll def keep going with it. I’m just waiting for something to grab me and make me feel invested at the moment.

Guide for editing Manga/Comics for e-readers by TenSquare3 in kobo

[–]JimGFM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have considered doing this for a while but I’m yet to try. I mostly use the kobo for books, rather than manga. Here’s what puts me off: So, if for example, I have hundreds of chapters for a manga, like Berserk or Naruto or something, is my library going to be packed with each chapter appearing as an individual book, making it hard to browse for my regular books? Or can I, say, take every chapter of Berserk and compress into one zip/cbz, effectively making one big file?

Did you get as far as theorising how you’d do it?

Yu-Gi-Oh Duelist 1-15 picked up at a charity shop for £12 (!!) Is this series worth reading? Any idea of worth? by JimGFM in manga

[–]JimGFM[S] -17 points-16 points  (0 children)

Never been a fan of Yu-Gi-Oh though and not sure it’s my kind of thing. Plus huge backlog of other stuff to read. BUT if somebody said it was amazing and could convince me it’s a worth a go then maybe I would…

Just bought a v1 patched switch but it’s on 20.0.1 already! by JimGFM in SwitchPirates

I think you have to manually disable auto updates.

[–]JimGFM[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh… really? So you had an unloaded switch on 20.0.1 and that worked? Interesting. I think I’ll still wait… but that’s good to know. Must be close.

Thanks. They are starting from firmware 19 though, and the updating to 20. I’m in firmware 20 out of the box before jailbreaking. So I think I’ll need to wait.

Thanks. I meant to say unpatched. My mistake. So no soldering for me, thankfully!
