Your time is valuable. Why waste it reading slop?

This thing is the length of the entire Lord of the Rings trilogy and it's only one book in a series of equally appallingly long books. I hate fantasy authors and their addiction to page count.

>>25171638
They are books for women and fags anon almost like harry potter, lots of words and bullshit just to keep their minds occupied for a while

These ultra long, lore heavy sci epics are boring af

"Danerion Danerion pulled back Bleabox's Thorfag who had creeped too close to the edge of the cliff (insert memory of herding some goat adjacent creature on a small planet circling the star Phraxis III He will spend 6 fucking pages reminiscing about some bullshit nostalgia)
"Ah Ha!" Bleabox chortled out of two of his five mouths "A great catch!" He spoke from the other three with a lisp Danerion Danerion could only imagine was from an ancient dialectic of Galaxiar Oog spoken by only low members of the high kings court of Gleeblag Seven. Not Nine of course, Gleeblag Nine would make no sense to his Lerivengian trained ears. The Lerivengian knew their tongues too well
etc. etc."
Who gives a FUCK about any of this shit?!
I hate Epic Fantasy adjacent Sci Fi so fucking much.
