I feel that. I listened to all of Stormlight on Audible, and I didn't start caring about the story or the characters until about halfway through The Way of Kings. Once you make it through the first half, though, you'll fly through the rest of the series. You have an internet stranger's word that it'll be worth it.

Definitely not a quick or casual read - I've been reading it for like three years tbh. There's ~100 pages of appendices, footnotes that span multiple pages, footnotes that redirect you to chapters, sideways/upside-down text. Reading for extended periods of time can drive you a little crazy. My copy is full of post-its.

Interesting. Probably just a coincidence, but that paragraph is basically the whole plot of House of Leaves. I'd like to think Danielewski read this, decided to take it literally, then sat down to write this banger.

This will definitely be in my next library haul. Have you read Team of Rivals? Highly recommend if not!

Android user here. Not sure if the web version exists yet, but I'd love to test it out when it's ready!

Fellow allomancer, here! I don't think there's a Cosmere channel yet, but I imagine it's inevitable. Might be too niche for now. I've read a decent amount of Sanderson and similar fantasy, so I've been on the lookout for a SciFi/Fantasy channel. I'm still not quite sure how to earn enough warps to create one.

I modified the Dogmeat deck, and it's fun to play! I don't love the "Universes Beyond" concept in general as it feels gimmicky, but I can't really complain about the execution.

Eldritch Horror is fun! Especially if you're familiar with Lovecraft & the Cthulhu Mythos.

Any Destination/Project Fear fans here? 🐤 I don't have any wild paranormal stories to share, but I love watching investigation shows. Used to watch Ghost Adventures religiously, but I can't stomach the cringe anymore.

I do this for my partner all the time. Spent weeks optimizing her Sisay deck + a few others. Now I get jealous when she stomps me with them. 🫠 We share our collection tho, so I can test drive em whenever. My advice? Cook up some spicy mole god shenanigans in your Cauldron to warm your belly and ease the pain. 😈

I know I can still use the old cards/decks to play one of the 17 new constructed formats they've invented since 2021, but I'm a cardboard addict and my goblin brain likes cracking packs and playing with the new shiny things 🫠

gm nerds I mean... wizards? planeswalkers?? Question for those familiar w/ the current standard meta: I'm diving back into Arena for the first time since M21 & obviously all my old decks are illegal, so I'm just grinding & curious if any particular set(s) dominate the meta right now? What packs should I be crackin?

I’d vote for It in a (final) heartbeat. As the saying goes, better the Eldritchian horror you know

Same! My play group is super stoked on Thunder Junction, but I'm just not feeling it tbh. Slapping cowboy hats on random characters seems like a silly novelty. I love all things spooky so Duskmourn tops my list, but Bloomburrow is a close second. Excited to return to Lorwyn/Shadowmoor next year, too.
