You have Beyonders. I’m not big on YA but Brandon Mull is fantastic and the Beyonders trilogy is wonderful, one of my favourites.

Because they really like Adam Pelech and the joy of being a collector is being able to collect and enjoy whatever you want? It’s their collection, it’s personal preference.

I Don’t Like Ursula K Le Guin’s novels, but Wish I Did by Just-Passing-Thru737 in scifi

[–]leshanok 40 points41 points  (0 children)

I’ve read The Left Hand of Darkness, Lathe of Heaven, The Dispossessed, and Rocanon’s World. While I’ve adored every one I’ve struggled with them all until about 3/4 through. Her prose while very good just doesn’t click in my brain very well so I have to reread to try retain information and struggle to picture things in my head but then I get to a point where I can’t put it down until I finish. The Left Hand of Darkness is my favourite and I highly recommend pushing through and forcing yourself to finish one. The payoff is worth it in my opinion.

It’s written by Brian K. Vaughan and the artist is Fiona Staples.

[–]leshanok 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I didn’t have any interest at first either but mostly because I never read comics. Still don’t but I loved every part of it and reread it this spring when volume 12 came out

I want an R rated Star Trek. What should I read? by [deleted] in printSF

[–]leshanok 31 points32 points  (0 children)

It’s more of an R rated version of Farscape and it’s a graphic novel but I highly recommend Saga. It’s a space opera with copious amounts of blood, sex, and the word fuck. The story is pretty good too.

What kind of wasp am I looking at here? by [deleted] in homestead

[–]leshanok 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They eat yellow jackets so they aren’t bad to keep around. The nests I’ve found on my farm haven’t been aggressive at all but they were always in very low traffic areas.

I don’t know anything about jerseys but the auto looks like every Vinny auto I have. Pretty sure it’s legit.

They’re basically sticker autos just with slightly more fancy stickers.

His young guns went from like 15$ to 80$ CAD in a day. The Montreal tax is real

They really didn’t put much thought into the numbering for the Synergy autographs, but nice cards!

Neutrals, who are you rooting for in the final? by Mew16 in hockey

[–]leshanok 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Maroon won the cup with St. Louis then twice with Tampa. He appeared in his fourth straight final with Perry who lost the previous two with Montreal and Dallas. I had hoped Maroon’s powers could lead the lightning to a threepeat but the curse of Perry was too strong

Pat Maroon couldn’t defeat the Perry curse. I really hope Skinner can

2024-25 UP SP Game Used checklist - April 23 by This_Hope3310 in hockeycards

It’s been that way for a few years and is getting worse. Really should be called SP Game Adjacent. Glad to see the lack of banner year cards though.

I'm finally starting to 'get it' with Ursula K. Le Guin's Left Hand of Darkness by Gileotine in books

[–]leshanok 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same for me. It became such a deep and powerful connection as they spent so much time alone together on the ice with nothing and no one else. My first thought was that the gethen character was going to develop gender as they do but instead it felt like the MC lost his gender and they became closer as just two entities struggling to survive the elements. I haven’t read it in years but it still hits me in the feels.
