Mehso-so

More of a high so-so for me. For whatever reason, I found this harder to get through than the more « flip-through » books such as Xanathar‘s Guide and Tasha‘s Cauldron. I did like the cool dragonborn ranger, though, and recorded the info for future use.

Tales from the Loop | Simon St�lenhag

Every Thursday I will be posting about a book, or short story, I love that I have either never posted about or have not posted about in a long time. For my first entry for #ThorsDayRec is Stålenhag's sui generis work Tales From The Loop. I have seen this categorized under: Graphic Novel, Sci-Fi, Art Books, Fiction. Set in the 80s, TFL tells of a town with both decommissioned & sentient machines. There's a meandering narrative woven into (cont)

vivastory incredible artwork. TFL is like Stranger Things meets Dark. I def plan on checking out Stålenhag's other work!
(PS: If you have recommendations, please post!)

BarbaraBB Sounds pretty obscure and I like that 2w
Bette His book, Electric State has been getting buzz since Netflix, sounds like the book is preferable. 2w
vivastory @BarbaraBB There's been a board game & a tv show of his work but it seems like his books are the lesser known when you Google him 2w
vivastory @Bette I've heard a lot of mixed reviews on the adaptations. Seems like most of the Netflix book adaptation lately have been misses 2w

An interesting read, with funny asides between Volo and Elminster. Some really creepy illustrations; well done!

I‘m pretty sure that last sentence should say “the most INSULATED level of the pyramid” rather than “the most insulted” 🤣

Great story of D&Ds history and hownit has evolved over the years to become one of the most widely played tabletop games. Woth a good bit of lived experience from the author sprinkled throughout.

This was a fun collection of bits and bobs. I found a bunch of neat spells that of COURSE my current character (a Cleric) can‘t actually use 😂 Also liked Xanathar‘s asides and the disclaimer on the copyright page.

It‘s neat to read this now that I have the 2024 ruleset to see what made it into the new rules. The chapter on « group patrons » was cool too for presenting ways to bring the party together rather than just meeting in a tavern ?

I found the cutest board book for my grandbaby today. The artwork is incredible. And maybe I am trying to indoctrinate her a little. 😏

DogMomIrene Not sure where I found it, but there‘s a picture book called The Literary RPG, which is an alphabet book that‘s super cute. I sent it to my nieces and nephews, so no photos to share😔 5mo
bookishbitch @DogMomIrene oh thanks! I'll look for that one too! 5mo
