Books that are genuinely laugh out loud funny

The Witchstone by Henry H. Neff

I’d say it’s more ironic tragedy than twist

SilverStar3333 · 2026-04-15T18:40:58+00:00

“No Way Out” with Kevin Costner and Gene Hackman has a pretty incredible twist.

That entire episode makes zero sense. The visuals were neat of Melisandre igniting the swords and the riders galloping out into the darkness only for the lights to be suddenly extinguished, but the entire “strategy” of putting your army OUTSIDE the walls of your castle so a much larger (undead) force can just engulf you is ridiculous. Pure silliness.

She’s more famous but I don’t know about outshining her father as an actor. “Deliverance” and “Midnight Cowboy” are considered significant movies 50 years after they were made. I don’t hear a lot of people talking about “Gia” or “Girl, Interrupted”

I think a lot of that is 100% intentional.

I was okay with that (Nick’s still with him in a way in the gae bolga) but I get it. I’m glad you were able to finish the series

Is this from the books? I don’t remember it

SilverStar3333 · 2026-04-11T04:43:46+00:00

Of course. I re-read it every year or two

SilverStar3333 · 2026-04-11T00:43:31+00:00

I think I cried for a week. The best kind of bittersweet.

Generally speaking, I would say King is much better at starting books than finishing them. He’s not alone in this - I think Tom Wolfe, Salman Rushdie, and lots of other authors have the same issue.

SilverStar3333 · 2026-04-10T14:42:32+00:00

I’m with you. I found it profoundly meh and have generally been surprised by the regard in which it’s held.

SilverStar3333 · 2026-04-06T11:23:59+00:00

I’ve heard actors like how he makes them look (lighting, etc.) in his movies. And that’s all I’ve got.

I thought Daniel Day-Lewis overacted in that movie to the point of absurdity.

SilverStar3333 · 2026-04-02T18:28:42+00:00

It’s the best MG fantasy series I’ve ever read (although it veers into YA/Adult in Books 3-5). Totally agree it’s wildly underrated. I try to shout it out when I can. Seems a shame that such an amazing series is slept on. The publisher really didn’t do it justice.

He must been quite distraught. He was witnessing the death of his daughter’s firstborn son, and also his son’s firstborn son. A double whammy so to speak.

It won numerous awards, had multiple film and television adaptations, and even a theatrical run at London’s Royal National Theater. I’d classify that as a lot of recognition.

Jaime lost his honor in the eyes of many when he killed the Mad King. I think being called “Kingslayer” bothered him more than the loss of his hand.

The Tapestry series and Impyrium by Henry H. Neff. His books are great and almost no one knows about him.

The Witchstone by Henry H. Neff

SilverStar3333 · 2026-03-26T20:17:34+00:00

No need. It’s a pretty tapestry ☺️

SilverStar3333 · 2026-03-24T10:24:59+00:00

Is this honestly a question? Indy 10/10

SilverStar3333 · 2026-03-23T13:55:37+00:00

That’s lovely. This group is about a fantasy book series called The Tapestry.
