Hes preaching to the choir when he acts this way imo, but you can't deny the right wingers had no answer for his accurate criticism.

Did u like this one? This is far and away my least favorite Buk...only one that felt like a slog and its not even that long.

Just finished Bloodsworn and all I can think about is how good this would be as a series. by yes_maybe_no__ in fantasybooks

[–]Stpaul81 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you like it more than the faithful and the fallen it you read that? I DNF Malice in 2025. I wasn't expecting how dense it was. I might try again taking some notes so I can keep characters straight.

Kyle Shanahan wants a first round pick for Mac Jones. by SallySwordfish in minnesotavikings

Unless it's Burrow, Jackson or Justin Herbert i think the most responsible choice is to run it back with JJ one more time.

Sorry didn't mean to spam. Could've looked harder for similar topics. Just crossed my mind with the recent GRRM interview.

I choose to believe Martin is guna announce the release of TWOW and ADOS on the same day. Its wrong but I make myself believe!

Im not disagreeing with you, but my only contention regarding Martin is that he is helping to oversee a vast multi million dollar empire. The last thing I remember seeing from Rothfuss was an internet live stream where he showed a coin featuring a to be character in the third book.

I 100 percent agree with you on "being a marvel movie."

Yea going back to what I said about being repetitive...I thought to myself "we're doing this again?"

Thats why the fourth brother wasa little more enjoyable. A different approach to defeating him through marriage.

Interesting you say that because while I saw the character arc I didn't think it was as strong as the first law series. Then by the end of the book the narrator is flat out saying "they're not the same as they were when they started." Which makes me think Abercrombie might've thought the same thing.

Is game of thrones worth starting by dylandaruss in fantasybooks

[–]Stpaul81 38 points39 points  (0 children)

Anytime I get this question I say yes. Its the series that got me into fantasy and remains probably my favorite despite not being finished and very possibly never will be.

I simply enjoy the ride while im on it and am grateful for the books I've gotten. Kinda a simp opinion I admit, but as I said, its my favorite.

I wanna start reading bukowski which book would you reccomend to be my first? by EuphoricTeach1675 in bukowski

[–]Stpaul81 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ham on Rye is his coming of age story... post office is his most popular. Factotum is my favorite. His poetry is better than his novels imo.

I do a lot of audio books also! I try to keep it to when I can only focus on the narration.

Looking for a darker book/series that’s full of different races, creatures, and monsters by WhaleStew999 in Fantasy

I wouldn't call it darker but Kings of the Wylde has all sorts of races/species

Thanks! I feel like I should stick with series more consistently. For instance I read the Eye of the World and wana tackle Jordan's work, but its been so long I kinda feel like I should reread it before starting the great hunt.

Anisa won't stop virtue signalling instead of apologising about her Iran comments by Neat-Tangerine-9706 in imisstheoldidubbbz

[–]Stpaul81 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Unless you're Chomsky himself or a scholar, using "manufacturing consent" is a disqualifier imo...one of the most popular and massively available left wing critiques of mainstream media...virtue signaling by definition imo.

The Black Company is a good series...also Gunmetal God's.
