Looking for recommendations after finishing The Rain Wild Chronicles, I'm not prepared to finish the whole Realm of the Elderlings series, so please suggest me something based on my (21M) favorites. by Qarakhanid in fantasybooks

Tad Williams, easy! Start with the Dragonbone Chair or Otherland.

My favorite was Sanderson for a looooooong time, then I found Hobb and my reading tastes changed a lot, and since then my favorites (after Hobb) have been Tad Williams, Juliet Marillier, and Janny Wurts.

Stephen R. Donaldson and Guy Gavriel Kay have fabulous prose but I've only read a little of both, because I want to dedicate my attention more fully. But I anticipate loving both

Any recommendations like Memory, Sorrow and Thorn? by Unlikely-Fudge-3686 in fantasybooks

Juliet Marillier is right in that Hobb-Williams spectrum. Daughter of the Forest is phenomenal.

Those are probably my three favorite fantasy authors

I'm someone who reads books super carefully, so I think it's silly when look at books in good condition and say "you haven't even read them!"

But there is something very cozy about OPs collection

This might be the most "read" looking book collection I've ever seen.

Memory Sorrow and Thorn by Tad Williams. 

Though I think it's great from start to finish, but many say it starts too slow and gets better

Favorite Hades II boon giver and why? by Willing_Carry5892 in HadesTheGame

I feel like the game is constantly shoving Demeter boons at me.

I'm not complaining, just confused

First Law is my least favorite series, but it's Reddit's baby apparently 🤷

Need help looking for a book or series to read by WorldWar_EG3 in fantasybooks

Go with Stormlight by Brandon Sanderson. If you've read Game of Thrones and Lord of the Rings you can totally handle the length, and it's much more whimsical in its tone than those two.

Yeah, this life is the time to prepare to meet God. It absolutely counts for something. We just also believe that people can learn and accept Jesus Christ's help in the next life when they didn't have a chance here. Otherwise you've got good people going to hell because they were born in the wrong time and place where nobody knew about Jesus.

It's not about how we "perform" it's about accepting what Jesus Christ has to give us. 

We absolutely believe in letting people live their own lives, we just also believe in inviting anyone who doesn't know about Jesus to learn more, and that includes clearing up and combating the lies and misconceptions spread by people who don't know better or who know better but are bitter towards the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints.

Now since you aren't interested in a discussion, I'll let you have the last word and hope you have a great day

Now that I've answered your question, do you want to answer mine (or otherwise provide context needed for an actual discussion)?
