I.E. SPANNING CHILDHOOD TO ADULTHOOD
NOT THE MILQUETOAST SHIT THE FEMME MFAs PUMP OUT THESE DAYS
yea, it was allegedly for young pepole, but older people would read it and find value and meaning in his words as well
my favorite YA (is it?) novel is Bradbury's Dandelion Wine
MFA's should all be beaten with a stick until they repay their absurd student loans
have either of you read it?
yea Dandelion Wine is YA usually, so is THe Halloween Tree
I've read it
YES BUT LIKE 25 YEARS AGO
AM A LARGE FAN OF THE MARTIAN CHRONICLES HOWEVER
I like the martian chronicles, but as far as space opera (would it be proper to call it space opera? /discuss) I prefer A Princess of Mars
haven't read it. my recent fav space opera is the Hyperion series - though mostly the first entry
NO, WOULD NOT CALL THE MARTIAN CHRONICLES SPACE OPERA
Hyperion? Was that the James S.A. Corey serise?
IT IS A TRAGEDY IN THE GREEK SENSE
no, the Dan Simmons one
TMC IS UNDERRATED AS LITERATURE IMHO
oh ok. yea i don't have those yet
TMC was very good. I love Bradbury and genuinly cried a little when he died. then I wanted to kick Neil Gaiman in the dick for being a smug cocksucker and bragging about how Bradbury consider him a son
and of course The Forever War. for me perhaps the best "space marines" book I've read. Personally found it more thoughtful than Startship Troopers
but maybe I didn't appreciate the finer aspects of the latter back when I read it
I liked TFW, but the ending is a total fucking cop out. He should have just let the female in the book die of old age, would have been more in line with what the book's ethos was about.
yes
agreed
ending was much to cheesy
MAKES ME WANT TO READ ENDER'S GAME
AND EXTERMINATE THE WEAK
And I also hate that TFW is the blueprint for every pathetic POS rip off Scalzi has ever produced
SCALZI = HIV = EXPEL ITALIANS (THEY'RE NIGGERS)
Old Man's War was entertaining enough
no
just no HFT
https://twitter.com/mikethernobich yeh serious lulz - sorry cataching up
haha
OMW was an abortion of a novel. nothing original, nothing well written, for fuck's sake Scalzi can't even say anything profound when he is stealing form a very profound book.
pure popcorn reading. Which is fine sometimes
yea i mean, i don't get into Monster Hunter for the philosophy, but at least Correia can write a good solid sentence.
ALLAHU ACKBAR!
SCALZI HAS A VERY SMALL PENIS
AND IS A TERRIBLE WRITER
