>If it weren't for the meme it wouldn't get a fraction of the exposure it does.
I had it in my chart years ago, and it was in the OP years ago too. I recommended it when called for. All you fags are doing is reducing a modern classic to a meme. Especially when someone ask for something specific, e.g sword and sorcery and you lot recommend BoTNS because Severian carries around terminus and has a glowing blue claw, or they ask for books with giant killing and you rec BoTNS because of Ms River so Green, or they ask for GRI and you rec BoTNS because of "muh granny" and "muh forced boat excursion".

21.

I've read some books before, but nothing that sustained the pleasure I now have for reading.

I blame older people that recommended me certain books that were nowhere near enjoyable for me. We are all different and each of us has distinct tastes.

Ignore /lit/ when they say you should start with the classics. You should start with whatever you enjoy, even if it's trash according to most of us.

You'll eventually progress into other topics but ,with all honestly, read stuff that you know you'll probably enjoy. Whether it's "A Song of Ice and Fire" or "Da Vinci's code".

I used to play video games just like you until they didn't fill the gap anymore and became the same old repetitive shit. I've started reading since then. Best choice I've made.

Read my chart thoroughly anon, don't just look at two books them start shit posting about my "bad tastes", I have no problem with wolfe. Did you ever see me shit on wolfe?

It trash like conan and lankhmar I shit on, and only because (was probably baited each time) the anon who started the dinosaur trend ONLY suggested those books, sometimes what you asked for as a recommendation was less than a paragraph in Conan... the fucking anon would suggest you the whole book, as if the book was built around the what you were asking for.

The original dinosaur has disdain for anything new, he refuses to read them, while touting his same tired books, like a 10 dolla hooker showing you her flabby, saggy tits, and saying the are the pinnacle of fantasy because they were around so long. FUCK. THAT. SHIT.

Please look at my whole chart then talk to me.

A few on here are like that.

>>8176404
Some people like shit, but not everyone likes shit.

You guys shit on my tastes constantly, I don't see how me not liking one of your books is some great crime, not when you lot hate almost all of mine.

You don't see me splerging when you guys shit on Sanderson, Weeks, and Sullivan... yet, when I say Conan a shit and fag mouser a shit, you cunts blow up and get butt blasted.

I find it funny you all getting mad at being called dinosaurs. When you guys shitpost I just go and read.

>the person who accuses everyone of not liking the new stuff because it's new is the only one around doing that
Shows what you faggot, I'm not the only one that call you guys out on the old books, I may have started using fossil fuels and dinosaurs, but I'm not the only one who uses it.

Also look at my list you faggot, I read new and old, it's the dinosaurs that say: "older books have withstood the tests of time, and are therefore better, nothing new is of literary value". They then go on to suggest Conan, Grey Mouser, etc.
Maybe you guys are trolling, and trying to waste people's time by suggesting old boring books, then samefagging about how great it was.

I see many people post how shit those books were, you all assume anyone calling your precious mold inspiring books is me and I just laugh.

Gfy, then kys.

>newfag asking newfag questions
Time for the list.

I would like to add Hull 3 Zero to the recommendation, maybe Iron Dragon's Daughter, it has a strong start and flow and had me hooked, but certain parts had my enjoyment needle dropping. Well see if I will fully endorse.

Pol what are you even doing here? Why are you even reading?
Is it to get books that justify your world view?
Is your mind so weak that any book you read immediately changes your perspective?

Back to other lit with you.
