Eugenically created Ubermensch leads an army of NotChristians on a crusade to reclaim the NotJerusalem from NotMuslims. There's also NotMordor and NotSaruman trying to summon god of desth who's actually just a living weapon of alien technology. Also everyone gets raped.

Worth noting that most of this shit is falseflagging. The series is talked about in the fantasy general quite a bit, which made people upset since they couldn't talk about sanderson or the latest chinese webnovel without getting mocked.

There has not been a series in /sffg/ for a long while that has had the same meme-potential as The Second Apocalypse series.

To be honest, it is hard to find any work of fantasy better than his in the last 10 years. It is no wonder he has gathered quite the fanbase in /lit/.

Fuck off posting yourself Bakker, your books are hilariously pretentious and the epitome of Reddit tier. Even your colleagues call them children's books
