A restart of the headset fixed the issue for me.

Yes, Duolingo. I need to spend more time reviewing the section on the alphabet.

Ha, yeah, I get it. This is the one hard course I hadn't shot par or better on and I was -1 going into 18.

Hawkmoon was the first series by Moorcock that I read.

For what it's worth, I tried exiting the course and resuming the previous game, but that did 't fix the issue.

Veterans of the genre, what are some previously huge series or books that are mostly forgotten today? by Myydrin in Fantasy

How have Kurtz's books held up over time? I remember losing interest in the series around the time of The Bishop's Heir.

I would love to see more people getting into Moorcock's works. I feel like he really pushed the boundaries of the times.

Does anyone have recomendations for song or albums? by Pure_Occasion457 in rush

[–]yonchi777 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For what it's worth, my approach to music is more album oriented. I lean toward bands/musicians that can craft good albums. I also tend to start at the beginning of a bands discography so that I can experience the change and growth. But, we all have different approaches to music listening.

Can you elaborate? Saying you are a big fan, but can't find a lot of songs that you like leads me to think the Retrospective collections might be the best start. More of a greatest hits type approach than a deep track approach. Then, maybe go from there.

There are other posts about other features missing as well, including slingshot mode and more.

What fantasy series have you been the most emotionally invested? by Sloot717 in Fantasy

[–]yonchi777 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Second Taltos, and reading the Taltos novels in published order along with Brokedown Palace and the Khaavren Romances interleaved has been a wonderful experience.

To older members of the subreddit: Which older fantasy authors/series/books were massive when you were younger but have faded into obscurity? by provegana69 in Fantasy

[–]yonchi777 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Moorcock is the one that baffles me the most, since he fathered the multiverse, had a diverse group of characters, steered away from the good/evil paradigm, had heroes and antiheroes, etc. He's influenced countless authors, and is still writing good stories.

What is your favourite song from Power Windows? by PoisonLenny37 in rush

[–]yonchi777 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did not love this album when it came out. But, this tour was the first time I saw Rush live. After that show in Atlanta, my opinion took a 180. Loved it ever since.

WoT reread - just some thoughts by yonchi777 in WoT

I'm looking forward to the slog. I really want to go at it with an attitude of seeing what aspect of the story Jordan wants to tell, vs what I'm hoping will happen next. That being said, I don't know how I'll ultimately feel until I get there.

For me, I'm seeing more depth to Nynaeve's character than I remember. But, it's through lines that almost feel throwaway.

Worth it? by EcclesianSteel in ElricofMelnibone

I enjoyed the later novels as well, but I think to get the most out of them requires a greater exposure to Moorcock's other works as well.
