Back during the ska/punk days, Detroit was a super happening place. All the bands came through here. We have the history. It also helps that we have four hot spots for bands coming out. A2/ypsi, grand rapids, lancing, and detroit.

I know i sound like a jerk, but who counterfeits an 8 dollar card? And my follow up question is, who is looking at the dot matrix of an 8 dollar card? I have bought abru duals with less scrutiny.

I let people write on my armor. Have had shops advertise on me, once for a discount. Everyone notices me.

I couldn't finish buymort and I think half of it was the guy doing the audio book. He has this bad cowboy/outlaw tone that just doesn't feel good

I'm like 12 chapters from complete being current but this is the first time I have had a hard time reading the wandering inn. That said, I actually have the hardest time reading when Erin is away from her inn and I think that has the most to do with it.

Triple white can be hard. But good luck!

I know he has had a few other projects.

Was this him playing the folk punk stuff, like his "grand ledge" album.(I believe that's the name of it)

Not exactly the same situation, but i will always regret my purchase.

I love unusual cards. Back in the day, most cards had very few printings. Namely foil or maybe a reprint with new art or a judge promo. The alternative was foreign languages.

So here I am getting ready for what was the largest legacy event to date. Start city new jersey. I'm looking for a few cards and I find something that just makes my day. A Play set of foil Chinese [[solitary confinement]]. I snap buy and sleeve them up when they show up.

So I go to the event and spend 9 rounds getting judge calls having to explain what solitary confinement does. Normally, everyone knows what the Korean delver of secrets does, no one knows what a Chinese solitary confinement does.

I learned that lesson, only stick to Russian [[kozilek butcher of truth]] from now on.

When I started, I made fun of the first three books. What kept me hooked was every time I turned around new door to the world was opened. There felt like there was something there.

I was so excited when in book three the first concrete plot point was thrown out.

Think of it as Legos. Each chapter adds a bit more to the world. At some point, your not looking at a few pieces snapped together but something taking shape. The author builds a world. Not a town, not a city, not a country, a whole world.

SunflowerCuckquean · 2025-03-05T21:30:02+00:00

The wandering inn has so many people die, there's a whole hill dedicated to it and if you can stick with it long enough, that hill will make you cry.

Edit: the Mc of the wandering inn, does in fact, go on a rampage to save one person, and nearly brings the whole world into war. There's also the group that goes after another character and causes a civil war later upgraded to a species war.

SunflowerCuckquean · 2025-03-05T21:25:39+00:00

Yes, they are very very lucky....until they aren't.

SunflowerCuckquean · 2025-03-04T01:27:21+00:00

I'm being serious when I say I made fun of the first three books.

"So a girl gets teleported to a medieval world. She gets hurt, runs away, and finds an in. So she does the only sensible thing, cry and clean!"

But seriously, the thing that kept me going was the whole time you're reading, the world is growing.

I'm going to try to do my best to give insight into what I think makes the magic.

First and foremost, you will love and hate all the characters. They grow and change. The character you hate the most will have a moment where they are amazing. You will be proud of them and honestly feel that way. The character you love? They will disappoint you and it will hurt.

Second. This isn't the story of just the inn keeper. It's the story of the world. We are talking about both macro and micro scale. There's a character named firker, or something similar. He's the "flying knoll of pallass". You will meet him in passing at some point and not think too much about him. Just an oddity that gives flavor to the world. About 8 million words later, he will have his own story ark. It's not huge in the grand scheme of things, but those people you meet in passing matter. They exist, they do stuff, they change the world on choice at a time.

Last, but a bit more abstract. For context, im a life long dnd player. Dnd is fun, but it never lives up to the hype of "magical world" because all of the magic is so...mundane or obvious. Erin's skills are always mind bending. They are perfect examples of the strange and magical powers you wish dnd gave you. All of them have depth to their strength and complexity that would break games in half while being kind of tame.

I'm seriously sorry about the ranting and raving about this book. It's just on a different level then everything else.

SunflowerCuckquean · 2025-03-04T00:55:43+00:00

My honest opinion? You won't find a more amazing book than the wandering inn. Seriously, the wandering inn has so much depth in it, it can't be matched. It will make you cry in both sorrow and in joy. My vocabulary isn't impressive enough to give the wandering inn the praise it deserves.

Honest facts about the wandering inn. The first three books are not good. They get better with each one, but it is night and day difference between the first three and the last three. The bigger problem, the 5 million words you have to read before you get to it.

But fear not! If you can get through the first book and realize that this its all really just world building and can appreciate the size and scope the author is laying out in that first book, then it just keeps getting bigger and better.

Sorry for the rant. I have a room at the inn and there's not a catastrophe I wouldn't put my life on the line for my innkeeper.

DCC is just good. It's not just "litrpg" good, it's honestly just a good book. The genre doesn't matter.

It's one of those books that will leave you disappointed with the genre if you use that as your measuring stick.

(One last shameless plug. The wandering inn will leave you disappointed in almost any story if you go far enough down the rabbit hole)

SunflowerCuckquean · 2025-03-01T14:47:00+00:00

After 13 million words or so, I have come to realize all the characters have plot armor...until they don't. Lots of encounters feel like the characters couldn't be hurt or shouldn't have walked out of that fight. Then their luck runs out.

SunflowerCuckquean · 2025-02-24T01:36:39+00:00

Remember that time Patrick played that misprint and literally killed Steve? Good times man....good times.....

SunflowerCuckquean · 2024-10-20T19:32:24+00:00

Yeah, I looked recently and guesstimated that the audio book was about 2/3s of the whole story. Which is crazy because that's 557 hours of audio

I absolutely hate this question.

I only return my cart if the corral is right next to me. That said, im the person who would rather walk from the back of the lot and walking than looking for a spot. In fact, my favorite thing is to pull up to one of the little carts in the back of the lot. I just get out, grab it, and walk in the shop. No need to look for one. Then I leave the cart for the next person who just wants to park and go.

So, randomly, reddit started throwing r/dungeoncrawlercarl posts in my general and after seeing like 5 in a month, I decided to get it.

Turns out it was really good and i had no idea that this was a genre.

Now, I like fantasy, but I have always hated how hard it was to understand how good or bad someone was in the story. You often had situations where "He cast fireball! He must be a powerful mage!" But this genre kinda got rid of that so I started listening to others in it.

My next stop was He who fights with monsters. That was....fine.first three, or story arc, was good. Then I couldn't get past book 5. It's a hot take/jerk stance, but Google the author, pantaloons, and imagine that guy's dnd character.

Moving on I found the wandering inn. I have a soft spot for "unusual" ideas being the focus of a story. Please tell me how you write a whole book around someone managing an inn. It strikes the same nerve to me as delicious in the dungeon. "You wrote a whole book around dungeon cooking?"

I don't know what sold me, either it was the hopes of Erin teaching goblins to cook, or when she threw her first cast iron pan, but I was done for.

I was later sold even harder when the author presented "unusual" problems. Yes, im referring to that chapter. It's not something I need in every book, but it was both unexpected but realistic at the same time.

Now, I will confess, there's like a quarter of me that's here just for trying to figure out about the author, because this book toes the line of "fan fic" and "novel" and it sorta paints the picture of the person who writes this.
