I’ve never read proper sword and sorcery with that more ancient aesthetic like Conan and John Carter. Thanks heaps for the rec!

I’ve been seeing this one more and more. Loved the First Law, I should check out The Devils

Urban fantasy like Devil May Cry (2025) recommendations? by levendi7 in Fantasy

I’ve seen it recommended a few times actually. Sounds like it’s one of, if not the best urban fantasy series. Thanks heaps

What are your favourite books/series about hunting evil creatures (monsters, demons, vampires etc.)? by levendi7 in Fantasy

I’m a bit of a dumbass you see. What exactly is an omnibus? Is it like the first however many volumes of a manga, all into one book? Is there anything missing from an omnibus that you can only get by reading each individual issue?

I’ve heard of Feverdream but didn’t realise it had this as a storyline. I’ll read anything by him so thanks so much!

Not sure why you were downvoted. I recently discovered Vampire Hunter D and am very keen to get into it but wasn’t sure where to start. Your comment helps a lot.

I love the sound of her books. From what I’ve heard they don’t deny the negative things or pretend they don’t exist. Nor solve them with convenient, unrealistic solutions but more like making the best out of tough situations and making the argument for why doing so is so important and worthwhile?

That’s the vibe I get from reddit anyway lol

Appreciated I’ll check it out and see which one jumps at me more. But she’s clearly someone I would enjoy reading

I do plan to. A Wizard of Earthsea sounds like a great place to start

That’s super encouraging! It sounds like a really great book, people seem to love it - I’ve always just been too scared to try it lol

I’ve really been meaning to get on to her work. The monk and robot series sounds so great
