Can someone please explain the King in Yellow stuff? I liked this but am confused.

Gardnerposting is still going on? Didn't this guy and his discord friend burn out forcing this meme a month ago?

Please show some respect. He is one of the more inspiring, kind, and real of all the authors that lurk here.

It’s trippy. Enjoyed it overall. I’m probably going to read the others. Maybe the king and yellow too unless I can get answers here.

Reminder that all Gardner posting is Gardner shilling his own self published books which aren't even funny or a '4chan novel', just a redditor's pdf's full of typos

I normally don't like to leave negative reviews but this was pretty bad. i won't comment on the story itself but the abundance of spelling, punctuation and grammatical errors gives the impression that you're reading a hastily scribbled first draft. The formatting is equally sloppy. The writing itself is...not stellar. Put together these flaws leave you with very difficult reading experience, and not in a vood way. I purhased the series because I saw a thread on another site hyping it but now I'm beginning to suspect I've been had.

I just downloaded the ebook. Got it off amazon.

Read it then. But I haven’t read it either. I do know the general idea. Didn’t expect this to tie into The King in Yellow. Absolute mindfuck.

I like Horror's Call but I noticed this is a trope in it. Call of the Crocodile is really fucked up retelling of Dante's Divine Comedy just modern day. Arcade does the same thing but with Fast. I don't know why F Gardener does this so much but he obviously likes ties his books into classic literature. Using The King in Yellow is a really fucking bizarre choice though even for a series as strange as this.
