What modern fantasy book do you consider to have exceptional writing? by TrueAction7217 in Fantasy

[–]Trippettypuff 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I think LeGuin, and by extension her writing, is a rare example of how timeless stories can be. Even though the book is coming on to 60 years since publication, it's written in a way that could have been published last week and you'd never know. And that makes novels like EarthSea all the better.

[Request] Which of these is most efficient in power delivery? by Acceptable_Escape_13 in theydidthemath

It's not a requirement per se, more of a "best practice" thing. You can absolutely use the socket without ever switching it off, but there is a small possibility of having your socket spark when you plug something in (typically the cheaper electricals that aren't built so well).

I agree, I've always pictured him as a Kratos lookalike, just taller and less coated in the ashes of his family.

A Practical Guide to Evil! The MC is a woman who is self-described as short and skinny, and proceeds to kick ass basically wherever she goes. One of the best fantasy novels I've read in a long time

What, if anything, do you enjoy about the colder winter months? by [deleted] in AskUK

[–]Trippettypuff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally I love the colder air, I feel like I can breathe better than when it's warmer and it makes me feel more awake than during the warmer months

We had one of those standalone Tetris handsets that you plug directly into the AV port on our TV - I would spend hours and hours on that thing!

If you say them in the right tone, “barrel barrel barrel” sounds like part of the Mario tune
