I didnt know what this was and just looked up some gameplay…is this for real? It looks absolutely terrible and like it was made 30 years ago. Is that like part of the theme somehow?

For real, this was 85% of the reason I caved lmao. The other 15% was that I was presented with the opportunity to purchase one at a time when that was rare so I said fuck it

YES! Maybe I should read it again for nostalgia’s sake. I can’t imagine it’s very long since little me got through it. I think it was my first modern sci-fi book which was a very different vibe from things like John Carter of Mars

Man I forgot about Colfer. He wrote some one-off sci-fi book I read as a sheltered kid and it blew my mind. Cant remember what it was called but it had something to do with energy-based creatures that you could only see if you had nearly died. It was kind of a cyberpunk-lite novel for kids

Indeed it is. He is definitely an atypical writer

I just finished “The Shadow of the Torturer” by Gene Wolfe, first book in the “The Book of the New Sun” series. Very interesting book, excited for the rest of the series. Not the easiest read though
