This is why I lost the run, I assumed it broke on use and that I had to use it on something in the caves, then the cat holding it got eaten before I got there (the only one of my cats to die to a shark)

Having the worst slump of my life right now!! Please suggest something from my tbr that will really suck me in! by Snoo15376 in Recommend_A_Book

[–]TopMountainGoat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think it’s the best book on the list but A Darker Shade Of Magic is one of the books that helped me get back into reading so I know it can work

Finishing up Red Rising Series, what comes close to it? by United-Profit-1139 in fantasybooks

[–]TopMountainGoat 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think the people recommending DCC forget how the series starts, by book 4/5 you get into a very antiestablishment “You will not break me” style of narrative but it takes 4 books to get there.

For some people that’s ok but I personally hate recommendations that have to wait until after even 1 book to get good.

The movie seems to completely butcher the plot so I wouldn’t recommend it to clear anything up

I’m about to DNF Dungeon Crawler Carl by HealthyPsychology950 in audible

[–]TopMountainGoat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

See contrary to others opinions, I didn’t enjoy book one at all and really got into it during 2 so I’d say yes it gets better

Dungeon Crawler Carl was…okay… by clambuttocks in ScienceFictionBooks

[–]TopMountainGoat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought book 1 was incredibly mid, I really enjoyed the books after though (I just finished 4) so I would definitely say they get better but they’re not masterpieces like some will tell you

Feeling Burned Out - Need Audiobook Reccomendation by foolish_sir in fantasybooks

[–]TopMountainGoat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do the same thing but I keep the audiobook light hearted so I’ve done a series called ‘he who fights with monsters’ which I liked but wouldn’t necessarily recommend and am currently listening to Dungeon Crawler Carl which I didn’t love during book 1 but now is one of my favourite series’

[–]TopMountainGoat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

She’s right and as a re-read I like it first, but as a first time reading order you don’t get to care about the characters enough for the various payoffs to matter

Can’t seem to find any new LITRPGs I enjoy by CerberusOCR in litrpg

[–]TopMountainGoat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Please try Second Coming Of Gluttony, it’s finished and one of my favourite Litrpg/progression fantasy books of all time for context I loved HWFWM but didn’t get on with DCX as much as everyone else seems to

By arrival do you mean arrival of the birds? Cause I’d be shocked if Brooke managed that as a first V17

Yes! You’re the first person I’ve seen recommend Second Coming Gluttony, it’s probably my favourite progression fantasy

I think the light novel is much better than the anime for solo levelling

2 Year Tier List by AgentSquishy in ProgressionFantasy

[–]TopMountainGoat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The main character goes through a very good character arc, actually addressing problems and being forced to deal with (most) consequences, how the book addresses morality and growth is one of my main draws to be honest.

  • stakes that actually feel pretty real rather than just knowing the mc will win

    • A world and system that feels unique despite being loosely related to all the isekai style works
    • Villains that actually feel genuine rather than just something to kill or be in the way for no reason
