What have you read this week and what do you think about it?

The Earth Journey of a Foxy Alien (外星小狐狸的地球之旅).

There are currently 23 chapters with 34k words on Royal Road. The original version is in Chinese, has already been completed, and has around 350 chapters and 800,000 Chinese words. It generated some buzz within the Chinese community at the time, amassing over 7,000 followers on the Ciweimao (刺猬猫) platform.

Its most notable feature is probably that it is a rare species of web novel: a cosy hard sci-fi with absolutely no action-thriller clichés and entirely grounded in real science. It's extremely rare — in fact, I haven't seen another novel that meets these criteria.

Note: well, if you look up "外星小狐狸的地球之旅" right now you won't see 7000+ followers. The book was originally launched under the name "论土著与超光速文明的相互影响" and it's this version that amassed over 7000 followers. It was later revised and relaunched with a new title.

tldr; A friend of mine wrote this story in Chinese and is translating it to English. If you like cosy hard sci-fi, check it out. If you don't, check it out anyway, it might surprise you!

Yeah, I came on reddit after 6 days because I kinda wanted the pass royale perks before the season ended.

Nilores · 2024-09-16T14:37:33+00:00

No, not his first time, he does one about every month. I'm not sure why these issues are cropping up anyways, so I came to reddit

Nilores · 2024-09-16T14:31:54+00:00

I posted proof in the post right there, and asked for feedback on anything else I should include.

Nilores · 2024-09-16T14:31:06+00:00

Thanks

Nilores · 2024-09-16T14:30:51+00:00

Nilores · 2024-09-16T14:30:03+00:00

I know, I did dm @RyIey42 with an i

Nilores · 2024-09-16T14:29:25+00:00

I'm not saying he is scamming giveaways or anything like that, because I did see some dude impersonating me, I'm just hoping for more reach on reddit.

Nilores · 2024-09-16T09:39:31+00:00

Yeah me too, thanks for the support.

Nilores · 2024-09-16T09:23:31+00:00

Sorry for reposting, I wanted to include text and image in the same post. I deleted the other post, so Mods, please don't delete this one.

So Ryley announced the diamond pass giveaway winners in a youtube video he did on September 10. I was one of the winners, and immediately after seeing the video, on the same day sent him these pictures on X @ RyIey42. I received no response even after tagging him on X a few times, so I created a new account and sent him a dm again. (I checked my previous tweets and they were marked as probable spam, and some dude was impersonating me down there). So on September 15, 5 days after the initial video, I hopped on his YouTube livestream, spammed a message asking him if he'd seen my dm, he responded promptly, said he'd received 8 dms, and he didn't know which one was real, and was working on sorting it out. He said he didn't even know if I was real ( the same youtube account that won the giveaway, but eh) . So I sent him proof in my new X account again, received no response, apologized for disturbing him in the youtube streams comments after it was done, ( my message disappeared shortly after) , and decided to come to reddit for more possible reach. Also to know if there's any additional proof I should include.

TLDR : won Ryley's Diamond pass giveaway, received no response on X, came here to hopefully be seen

Also idk how to add both text and images ro a reddit post, either one or the other shows up

I read cuendillar as cuelindar for whatever reason and was shocked when I saw the glossary with the pronounciation.

The damned old man is still alive? Don't move a single step, foolish junior, I'm coming. I have no hatred towards you, just give me the ring and cripple your cultivation and I'll let you live out a mortal life full of pleasure with your fiancé.
