The 4chan Express Airship has arrived at /lit/, which is a very peculiar board. If you want something to read this is the place to look, you might even get more than you bargained for. The sticky is quite useful if I may say so myself.

>>	/ad/v// tourist Fri Jan 21 22:35:15 2011 No.1480594 I've been dying to read some more books. I just got around to reading Harry Potter. Even though its considered a teen book or whatever, the themes for it are really dark. I like it. >inb4 criticism.

>>	Anonymous Fri Jan 21 22:35:15 2011 No.1480593 Hello 4chan Express Airship. Welcome to /lit/. For books with airships in them, I recommend SM Stirling's Peshawar Lancers. It's fun!

To be honest, although I enjoyed his books when I read them, I've never had a very high opinion of a writer. I generally find him kind of cliched and annoying & I definitely think there's a ton of better fantasy out there. But you know NO HATING.

>>1480630
basically it started off as a train at /x/ which has been travelling through all the boards. we tragically lost our conductor at /po/ (i believe the cause of death was cancer contracted at /soc/), so we were stuck there for a while until temporary conductor took over, and here we are.

>>	/vp/ tourist Fri Jan 21 22:43:15 2011 No.1480644 >>1480630 We had a 4chan express train from /x/ to /po/, then our conductor vanished. We had Temporary Conductor from /n/ to /lit/ and now he has to leave. So we need a new conductor to keep going!
