I never read them but that PCP lecture on it was pretty cool.

>comfy
I remember them getting pretty batshit towards the end, like that one book that's just a character getting tortured for the duration. Or how it ends with the protag committing genocide and getting away with it.

Aside from the 3 long novels, they're pretty cringe to read as an adult and even those are pushing it.
As a 9 year old tho they fukkin RIPPED.

I never read LotR as a kid. Tried to read the Hobbit at 19 and hated it. Never going to express Tolkien. But at least I read Asoiaf at 15, and that was the best experience ever.

When I was a kid I loved this series and actually prayed at night to be able to turn into a hawk like Tobias or really any animals but unfortunately as an adult now that I've turned into an actual animal I pray not to be :/

There was the one where a new kid found the cube but was such a dangerous asshole the rest of the crew trapped him in a rat's body and abandoned him on an outcropping of rocks in the middle of the ocean.

That one fucked me up.
