Dingydang166 posted... Nah. Video games rendered books obsolete in the same way computers rendered typewriters obsolete. No reason to go backwards.Those are literally two completely different mediums. And generally speaking, the writing of books is vastly superior to that found in the games industry. --- Official Fujin of the Mortal Kombat 11 board.

FortuneCookie posted... They're a time commitmentSame. Im a slow reader. I blame the fact that I basically never read anything we were required to read during at least high school. I just wasnt interested and didnt have the discipline to force myself. Now that I actually want to read, Im slow and ineffective. --- The burden of proof is on those who argue that authority and domination are necessary. Libertarian socialist. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Evening_Dragon posted... I've read it. Prose is strong, but also dry, which I liked and my sister hated. The attention to consistency of magic is a highlight. She doesn't kill the mystery by turning it into shonen phleb, but it's clear that there are logical underpinnings and metaphysical ties. That sounds like it could be a fun read. --- "Reality is that which, when you stop believing in it, still exists." ... Copied to Clipboard!
