Looking for book recommendations similar to Planescape Torment.
The setting of the game really interests me as a fantasy world that, instead of being wondrous, is filled with danger and disgust.
I know this is a /v/ styled request, but I was told people here, especially in this were knowledgable in this.

Oberon, Titania, and the Faery Court took a prank too far and now they're on the run through space and time. They find refugees from the rebellion of Taira no Masakado on a planet that's being reborn as a world of mankind and decide the best way to hide is to settle here and act like they're humans.
In late Heian Japan, an abbess and a pirate did something, betrayal probably, that's going to send their karma to pound town till they've spent a gazillion reincarnations as bugs. Oberon's creditors hire them as spies, on the promise they can trick karma and get their sins blotted out. They need to cross the underworld to the place where Oberon is, pose as nobles, and ingratiate their way to his inner court, so the creditors can get their sweet revenge.
They pick up the narrator, a literate shrine priestess, to pad out their fake family and hopefully marry her off to improve their position, and also because they'll need all the spiritual help they can get crossing the underworld. She gains status having poetry competitions with the fairy city's other inhabitants, some of whom are Romantic poets reincarnated as fantastical creatures, in a vast convoluted tournament that involves trading binding certificates for favors, with the goal of challenging Titania herself.
Hoping to bring up themes of the fake becoming real and of redemption acting on those who think themselves irredeemable. I want to write some really Romanticist-inspired scenes of being overcome by nature, I think it'll mix well with mono no aware, and also have space for cute girls doing cute things.
The connection I made was for the fake parents to be working for Oberon's enemies, before that they were a glorified plot device to take our narrator places. Working title is The Jewel That Smashes The Hammer.

Last Dragon by JM McDermott
Prince of Nothing
I'm reading WoT now. First book took me two years to read it was so boring, second took me two weeks. I'm really invested now -- all the new characters and dynamics introduced are interesting and/or likeable, except Selene because Rand turns into a drooling tard around her. When does it get shit like I hear?

>Merry Gentry
That looks pretty cool. I know there was a bunch of Seelie Court stuff in Dresden Files as well, haven't read any of those though.
>>8206283
>That looks pretty cool.
It had a cool premise, and did well for like the first book. But being written by a woman she let her cunny get in the way.
You have to wade through pages of erotica to get plot and characters. Merry's vagina is versatile she can fuck large red caps(the dip their caps on the blood of their fallen enemies) and walk away afterwards. She even fucked chutulu's bastard love child and like the literal bitch she isshe was able to bear multiple children at once and they all have different fathers... sometimes 2 fathers made one child... and then she goes back to stuffing her vagina
I advise you not to read it, i read shit like these so you guys don't have to.
> wake up
> Dark Matter not out
>>8206261
Don't know, I'm at book 7 and it's still going strong.
Also you should figure out pretty quickly who "Selene" actually is.
>>8206322
Criminy. Any other howlers for us?
Will Stormlight Archives be the next big thing?
>>8206334I assume she's a darkfriend. Possibly Liandrin, with her powers of suggestion and a magic disguise?
>>8206349
They already are? Words of Radiance is the highest rated book on goodreads, from what I've seen
What are some good books with thief guilds and/or assassins that aren't YA trash?
what's good 'modern' works based on the Arthurian stuff? Or at least stuff that is influenced by it.
>>8206355
You don't hear about it in a wider circle, I guess. And it doesn't have enough sex to make it at HBO, so no GoT-tier fame for it.
>HBO forced to adapt Stormlight anyway
>Shallan and Jasnah nipslip all the time
>OC gay relationship in Bridge 4
>Shoehorned erotic flashbacks
>>8206352No man, Liandrin is Red Ajah, which means she fucking hates men and especially men who can channel so she wouldn't put the moves on Rand. I won't spoil it tho.
The only complaint I have is that Nynaeve and Elayne get progressively worse and worse, ever more bossy, bitchy and overall obnoxious.
>>8206373
No it'll be Studio Pierrot.
>>8206372
Warlord Trilogy by Cornwell is bretty good. A realistic take on what would Arthur really be like as a 7th century England warlord.

Are you the guy who threw a fit about me posting about White Sand a whopping two times?I've done it once more since then.:-)
>>8206434
No, not the comic book , rhe game was named dark something, and he was really indecisive.
So just finished book three on this and I'm asking myself, why the fuck am I still reading this? Is the fourth one any better or is Abraham just a flash-in-the-pan author who got famous because of The Expanse?
>>8206451

>>8206418
Don't judge a book by it's cover.
I need a good audibook for a road trip friends. Fantasy is generally my favorite to listen to on a long trip.
What are some trashy fantasy books I can read on my morning trainride? I don't mean complete dreck but something that's simple and feels like an old D&D adventure and doesn't require much thought.

Why would I?
Also is it a good leftie sffg authors or general, because one would have maybe 15 and the other like 70.
>>8206596
Didn't we just discuss this last thread?
You can't really escape SJW/Leftist authors in /sffg/.
>>8206665
It's easy to escape or rather avoid sjw tier authors because they produce only trash. It's like marxist utopian fiction.
>>8206582
I wish there was a minority author that went on twitter spouting shit straight from /pol/, that would make my day.
>>8206688
You can become a /pol/ writer yourself anon.
>>8206688
And then never get published again and blacklisted from the entire industry.
>>8206721
If they got to that point I think they'd just open a patreon and startself publishing
>>8206768
What do you mean "If they got to that point"?
We're way past that point already.
>>8206378
Figured she might trick him because she hates men, but it was a random thought I had before posting, didn't think it through much.
I quite like how bossy Nynaeve is, partially because it separates her from Egwene, who is more girlish even if she does have an attitude sometimes. I don't want them to become shit, I like them both and always look forward to their chapters. I get to learn more about Aes Sedai AND I get to leave boring Rand, what's not to love?
>>8206804
>likes the Aes Sedai
>thinks Rand is boring
You say that now, but come back to us when you're on book 8 or 9 and see if your opinions haven't reversed.
>>8206781
Are you referring to the publishing industry? I was talking about the individual.
>>8206576
Did you even read the book?
It's touted as scifi but I see no scifi elements other than the fucking laser prisms and the double moon. It's just a book the author used to spread his nasty fetishes to the world. All they do in that book is fuck man/woman/animals, drink, do drugs and vandalize property. Everyone is worshipping a self admitted rapist, who wants to "give it to them gud", and everyone wants a "big buck" to work them over. It's just a clean version of Hogg.
Unless you are going to say it has parallels to society at the time, and seeing that you are a fucking e/lit/ist you probably go around asserting that everything written has meaning, and you look for and attribute meanings to things that don't deserve none.
Please kys.
>>8206830
I assume thatnow that he has been outed as the Dragon Reborn to the world and has no choice but to accept ithe will become more interesting, but up till now he's just reacted like any regular person would. Which I guess most people like in a main character, but I don't, I like someone with a bit of character. Not someone totally wacky, mind you, just someone with a small amount of flavor, like Perrin. The quality of his chapters have mainly depended on who he's with. Loial, Hurin, Lan? Great. Mat? FUCK no. By himself? Time for a nap.
>>8206607
That's a pretty neat trick, doing pull ups and typing with your feet at the same time? You sir deserve an award.
Will this get better in the later books?
>He waited for a long moment before speaking

>>8207131
We are suppose to know which book you are speaking of?
"Hood's breath" makes me think Malazan, but I'm not sure.
Recommend some good, dark, serious and moody Sci-Fi books.
>>8206486
Yeah I'm fine with the story being limited on the magic and "epic" nature, but it just feels so bipolar. Is it trying to be a adventure series with Wester, or is it trying to do politics with the bank girl and Lord Regent Autism of Neckbeardia?
I mean I like the basic ideas, low fantasy setting, multiple different races, hints of the stuff about the ancient dragon empire, etc, but it's all just so bipolar and boring. It's like somebody aping GoT for their D&D campaign.

>>8206261
Things slow down in 7 and 8, and 9 and 10 are just downright terrible, though 9 still has an excellent ending. 11 brings the series pretty damn close back to the quality of its peak, and 12-14 are fantastic. Stick with it, it's a phenomenal series if you're willing to put the time into it.

>>8206853
Rand and Mat quickly become the most interesting only to be surpassed by the occasional darkfriend chapters.
The only reason I listen to Egwene or Nyneave chapters is because I don't want to miss plot.
The author made them insufferable cunts on purpose (I assume, since his book tends to point out the strengths and weaknesses of the genders), so I can't fault him for achieving its desired effect.
However, there is likely a better way to do it.
>>8208262
>Rendezvous with Rama
Nigga, the name is as far as the hindu inspiration goes.Unless the spiders, crabs and shit are somehow hindu-based.
That being said, i'm close to finishing it, and after being worried that i won't like it because it's "Nothing Happens: The Book", i actually enjoyed it quite a bit.
But in that strange way that i do with Clarke novels, where i'm left with mixed feelings at the end.

Isn't that an extremely capitalistic future? Unless i'm missing a joke there.
>>8208416
That is the joke. However, it's more libertarian/anarcho-capitalist
It basically elucidates a few problems that would arise from a strictly libertarian society (however, it does ignore how self defense would be handled on the bank's part)
>>8207802

Any recommendations on books that I can use to research 'the wizarding world'?
I'm trying to plot a wizard community (amongest other things) and want it to be as believable as possible. I'm getting stuck trying to move away from Potter things though.

I hate this book but Name of the Wind has a University which teaches different disciplines of magic. It's essentially Harry Potter but the magic is explained and the characters have no depth. It also takes him half the story to get there, though it continues for the first half of the sequel.

I recently finished the First Law trilogy and I have to say that Glokta is by far the most memorable character of the whole lot, right after Bayaz.
Also, read Sabriel, can't say I really expected to enjoy it as much as I did, here's hoping the other two books I have (Lirael and Abhorsen) are just as good or better.

>>8209515
Most dinosaur books are where they belong (the dark ages), you will not find electronic copies of them.

Keep reading, House of Chains shouldn't disappoint you in this respect. House of Chains is overall a pretty good book.

>>8210697

He might be, but damn if Keely isn't one of the snootiest reviewers on all of Goodreads.
>Peter isn't just cucked, he is megacucked
Wow this bizzare novel is well bizzare
>>8210697
Yes there are a lot of good criticisms there but as usual Keely needs to wank over his honourable, virtuous leftism. One of the redeeming qualities of WoT is its realistic portrayal of women and what would happen in a world largely ruled by women. Technology stagnates and nothing gets done while the women bicker amongst themselves, until Rand comes along and sorts everything out.

>implying
They all wanted Bernie Sanders to win the nomination, they're shitting in their pants about Brexit, and they hate christianity while tolerating the fuck out of islam
>>8211101
All of them? Every single person on every single subreddit? Jesus Christ, you /pol/ kids really do get dumber and dumber with every year.
>>8211101
They literally had to rewrite the algorithm for the subreddit that shows the most popular posts in the page because it was getting flooded with shit from the Trump subreddit. I don't know where the hell people tolerate Islam on reddit, at least on the defaults. The news and worldnews comments read like Stormfront for anything involving the refugees or terrorist
So, how hard is the science in Blindsight? I'm usually not a fan of hard scifi but this novel sounds really interesting from what I've heard about it (leaning into horror etc).
>>8211101
Please stop arguing with them, they believe anything right of Marxism is far-right.

Fuck yeah. What are the book equivalents of a Miyazaki movie?

What to expect?
>>8211294
Isn't like every Miyazaki film adapted from a book? anyway the guy loves French writers.
But realistically what your looking for is "The King of Elfland's Daughter"
>>8211272
No, I believe literally calling for the deportation of all muslims and a belief in the objective superiority of western culture is far right, both of which are common opinions on reddit's news subs

Take your gaslighting back to /leftypol/.

You don't need to know the industry to publish short stories, it's almost all open submissions.

At the bottom is a list of professional magazines like Analog and Asimov's.

That was EVERY SINGLE FUCKING DAY during the refugee crisis
>>8211347
I don't see how that is a bad thing.
>>8211347
>a belief in the objective superiority of western culture is far right
Nobody disbelieves in that. Those that claim to still call on the West to fix everything, prefer living in Western cultures, blame the West for poor decisions made by others, etc.
>>8211379
While I don't agree with either view I'm not arguing whether they're bad or not, I'm arguing whether they're far right or not

You forgot to blame Walmart for this.
>>8211395
That I don't agree with your extreme of the spectrum doesn't mean I'm on the other extreme, anon. People can have views that aren't radical. In fact, that's most people.
>>8211398
Guess were we've heard this argument before.
>>8211403
I don't know what's dumber, that you save a screenshot of a random reddit argument for when you call people communists, or that you think I'm a communist because I don't think all muslims should be immediately kicked out from Western nations

>>8211146
Most, anon. It's hyperbole.
>>8211148
Well maybe I'm just not as familiar with reddit as the rest of my pals here on /lit/ :^D
They are all frothing at the mouth about Brexit, and Bernie was enormously popular there. The mods on r/europe were so banhappy about "islamophobes" that users had to create r/european if they wanted to discuss news involving muslims. Yes I know it turned into r/pol but that's not the point. A lot of r/worldnews threads get locked when people break speech codes. I don't know about the donald subreddit, probably an inevitable reaction to the overwhelming liberalism of the other subs.
>>8211272
It's just an observable fact that reddit leans left. 4chan leans right but that doesn't mean there aren't socialists and sjws on here. I don't know why people are giving me grief over this.
>>8211347
>a belief in the objective superiority of western culture is far right
mate. . .
>>8211534
That means the mods are left-leaning, not reddit in general. That people make alternative subs as a reaction, which then turn immensely popular, should tell you enough. There's people whose job description practically is "reddit mod", they mod up to several hundreds, often including several defaults.
>>8211542
No you fucking tard, it's called an argument. Believe it or not, people who honestly disagree with you exist. They should have taught you that at kindergarten.
>>8211542
There would have to be a wide ranging conspiracy to remove or downvote conservative opinions and upvote liberal opinions. The idea that the majority of redditors are conservatives is just patently ridiculous.
>>8211547
Sounds like a good way to get paid to sit around and masturbate all day. I couldn't handle the cognitive dissonance though.
>>8211554

>conservatives
Britbong eh? how's that BNP nest called r/unitedkingdom theses days.
>>8211554
Reddit attracts that kind of people. A guy who once was very popular due to answering questions about biology became ostracized once it was known he kept a shit ton of accounts in order to upvote himself for a headstart and downvote people he disagreed with even AFTER he became by far the most popular Reddit user. He also did more convoluted shit like make submissions only to downvote them with his alts right before upvoting the one he actually wanted to be popular
This was right after a bunch of people harassed some teen for hours for correcting him in something about crows
