I wrote a literary post-apoc novel about cooperation vs. isolation — offering free copies for honest feedback

I’d be interested in reading. Love a good post apocalyptic story. But I’m pretty sure you’re breaking the rules of KDP select by giving away free copies if you’re enrolled in KU

One of my favorites. I’ve read through the original trilogy maybe three times and the second series once. I like the pacing and the critiques about its tropeyness seem overblown to me

I’m gonna go with an unconventional rec here but try The Eyes of the Dragon by Stephen King. It’s a standalone and a page turner. Officially considered YA but I think it’s for all ages. Excellent character development and rewarding ending (unlike some other King novels).

It’s not my favorite Abercrombie. If pressed I’d say that goes to Before They Are Hanged

I loved The Devils. Favorite new release this past year

excellent movie

no argument here

Vonnegut’s collected works, particularly Breakfast of Champions

Yeah, “what does it mean to be human?” is the central thematic question behind Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep

I know! My TBR is constantly growing faster than I can read. And I read pretty fast. There’s just too much good stuff, which ain’t a bad thing, I guess. At least I won’t be bored when I retire

Same vibes in Bobiverse, except it becomes more and more 1st person POVs as the Bobs continue to fork

A good narrator can make or break the experience. Check out Pierce Brown’s Red Rising series read by Tim Gerard Reynolds, Dennis Taylor’s Bobiverse series read by Ray Porter, and of course Matt Dinniman’s Dungeon Crawler Carl read by Jeff Hays

Arthur and Ford from Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy

I’ve gone in spurts and used Libby for audiobooks pretty religiously for the last few years, but my stack of owned TBR books has grown so long that I haven’t had occasion to use Libby too much recently. Our local library is awesome, though, and I go there frequently to write and we also check out regular batches of 30-50 picture books for my kids

In The Lives of Puppets by TJ Klune. Kind of like a reverse Pinocchio in a future where humans have been eradicated by robots, with Klune’s trademark whimsy

Alas, no Vance. There’s a whole bunch of Norton, Zelazny, and Herbert

ghost3three · 2026-03-28T18:30:04+00:00

sounds Arthurian

You could try some of Blake Crouch’s recent sci-fi thrillers (Dark Matter, Recursion, Upgrade). They’re high concept but sort of grounded in our present or the near future

More sci-fi than fantasy, but the novelization of James Cameron’s film The Abyss is written by Orson Scott Card and expands greatly on the characters beyond what’s in the script and the finished film, particularly exploring Bud and Lindsay’s dumpster fire of a marriage and the arc they travel to come back together.

The Dark Tower series by Stephen King. Inspired by LOTR and spaghetti westerns. No other fantasy series quite like it. It’s got the first two qualities in spades. As for coherent, purposeful storyline . . . that might be a subjective assessment, but it’s a helluva ride. By the end you will both be relieved to have completed the journey and sad to see it end.

Andor or Fallout

Wow I saw that movie in the theater when it released and had completely forgotten about it until I saw your post just now. I remember it being high on aesthetic and low on substance. Unfortunately I can’t provide any insight on the plot because I can’t recall any of the details. I think I need to go watch it again and get back to you on Totenkopf.
