Lots of pink and teal and spots and sparkles….then that brownish spider. Spiders are awesome, but that one feels a little more redcap fey than tinkerbell fairy.

I’m disappointed I didn’t see a piracy parody of this before seeing this. Come on internet.

Nice! I read another of her’s without realizing it: The Loom saga. I enjoyed it and would read more. It seemed a lot less YA, though. So if it lines up to get it again, I’ll see how she handles that audience.

And perfect timing, it’s been a few since I checked on Lemmy.

One of my nephews asks about these sorts of things all the time. It’s a delight that he’s frequently interested in the answer. Usually I have to abstract it by a bit, but he’s smart and will often bring up my answers later.

There ARE people in the world who say, “it’s awful that the only way to make x happen involves suffering. I’ll be respectful of that suffering and try to eventually remove it and minimize other suffering in the process too.”

We just also need to remember that there are also people who say, “If we wanted to be seen as good, we wouldn’t do x in the first place. The fact that y and z causes suffering too is negligible.”

Another thing to remember is that capitalism self-selects for the second type.

This is basically the plot of Sodom and Gamora.

Sounds very little like Shadow and Bone, but good try ChatGPT. Especially after the edit, so might have been an even better try initially.

It sounds like the world of Cinder Spires meets Shadow and Bone with a hint of Golden Compass, but not enough like any of them to remotely be a match.

How was that series? I almost picked it up via Audible sale, but I wasn’t sure at the time. It looked like it could have hit a few different levels of quality.

If you don’t like spiders, he at least makes it hard to hate them.
