@srguenther321 @Jeanmaire444 @elrondthinker There's a book by Douglas Charles Kane, Arda Reconstructed, that attempts to source each paragraph of the published Silmarillion in HoMe. Of course, Christopher had his issues with some things that Kane put down as "editorial changes" saying that those were his father's changes/1

@ThedaBarracuda @morolianlament @midnight_pals What is Dean Koontz' reputation that midnight_pals characterizes him this way? I've only read Odd Thomas, and I don't remember seeing any news about him that would explain it. 🙂

@KySfrom Anne Rice (esp. Cry to Heaven), Terry Prachett, Neil Gaiman, John DeChancie, Sweet Valley and Sidney Sheldon just because my cousin had loads of them, Louis Sachar, Melanie Rawn's Dragon Prince series, Anne McCaffrey and my favorite: Vinegar Pancakes and Vanishing Cream! /2

@NosyDr @DailyRoP @whitecachalot I tried reading the book about five times. I could never get past Chapter One, I thought the writing was atrocious. After each attempt I'd have to go back to Tad Williams' Shadowmarch or Melanie Rawn's Dragon Prince for a palate cleanser. 🤣

Catherine, Called Birdy (starring Bella Ramsey from GoT) was a great adaptation of the Karen Cushman YA book! I've read some of the interviews, and apparently Lena Dunham asked permission to change the ending, which I guess was fine? As the imdb goofs page says, though, it just/1

@InDeepGeek Shadowmarch by Tad Williams Otherland by Tad Williams The Dark Is Rising by Susan Cooper (the movie doesn't count because it was set in the present and they were American(!) for godsakes)
