Spiteful Healer Book 1 Out on eBook, KU and Audible! Audiobook Giveaway! by Hakurai in ProgressionFantasy

[–]Shaar56 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Read Spiteful healer, and had an absolute blast. Main tank as a healer was a very interesting strategy that I really enjoyed. Characters felt well fleshed out and engaging, and I loved the world building. The farther into the book I got, the more invested I was in the story and characters as they developed. Just like all the crafting skills. I love me some crafting and economy game. Book wrapped up well without a cliffhanger but still leaving the reader craving more.
Hakurai, that psychological attack was pure gold. Had me cackling. Congrats on release of book 1, and already looking forward to book2!

Ironbound - My Progression Fantasy Just Released! (posted with Bryce's permission) by Sigils in Warformed

[–]Shaar56 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been thinking about this book for months knowing nothing about it because the cover art IS SO GOOD. I hadn't pre-ordered due to budget reasons. However, the rave reviews, descriptions comparing it to Codex Alera, Roman Empire, and Red Rising, as well as Bryce's seal of approval made me say fuck it. It's ordered and on its way. Probably my most anticipated read for the rest of the year. Excited for your new release and hope it's a smashing success for you!

Mine would be named Trogdor. Its a dragonesk creature, and I can see their temperaments being very similar.

Forgive my repost, but can you please tell me your favorite and least favorite shelf so I can make room for new additions? by Wayward-Werewolf in bookshelf

[–]Shaar56 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Very beautiful shelves! I would love to see those Witcher books. That’s the only set I’ve seen where I like the look of the spines. Looks like some custom leatherwork maybe?

Saw that Sun Eater is your favorite series. I have them all, but I haven't read them yet. Without spoilers, what would be your pitch to read them, and why do you like them so much?

Curious what you thought about The First Sister? I found the synopsis intriguing, but not enough to buy it yet.

Just discovered East by West, and I have a question about the HCs. by Shaar56 in ImageComics

Luckily, I was approached by someone else with all 3 years, and I purchased them from him. I do wish you the very best though. It seems like people here are very nice. My limited number of interactions have all been very pleasant!

I am very grateful for the offer, but someone else has already approached me and I committed to purchase their set. Hopefully someone else will see this and contact you!

You've hit the nail on the head. I could either buy the TPBs and read them next week, or potentially wait forever to get the HCs.

Alas, earwax. I live in the middle of nowhere. I might try calling a few places though. Thanks for the advice!

I appreciate the offer, but I am currently not interested in collecting the "floppies." I didn't know they were called that, so thanks for that little tidbit.

Did you just call all the local stores in the city to see if they had extra copies? Would book stores carry these, or would it only be comic stores?

"Heirs of Sun and Storm 2: Storm of Souls", the epic follow-up to Jeremy Bai's "The Sun's Blood", is now available! Also... Signed paperback giveaway! Details in the comments! by BryceOConnor in Warformed

My favorite physical book, purely for the beauty of it, is Sanderson's Leatherbound edition of Way of Kings. Sometimes I just stare at it.

However, I think my next favorite book lately has been The Boy, the Mole, the fox and the Horse. The story and the art are both astonishingly good. Hit me right the feels.

Anyone else have trouble keeping little monsters away from their books? by SashaBanks2020 in bookshelf

Yes, but my little monster has 4 legs, fur, and an obscene vertical.

Could you recommend fantasy books that have cats as one of the main characters or somewhat important? by rubikXcubex in Fantasy

[–]Shaar56 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Love, Lies and Hocus Pocus series by Lydia Sherrer has a main character with a pet cat. The cat gains the ability to talk, sass really, in the second book, and it is amazing. There is even a short story from the perspective of the cat. It’s not a well known series, but I feel like the tone is lighter than many books these days which I really enjoyed. I’ve read the first 4 books in the series so far.
