@Varyk How short a time are we talking?

This one might be a bit of a cheat, but: The 7½ Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle by Stuart Turton. Technically everything happens within a day.

Checked out Silent Hill Ascension last night and yeah, was not impressed and doubt I’ll look at it again.

@Adderbox76 @Mothra Love the Death Gate Cycle, would also recommend it. It feels a bit like the prototype for Brandon Sanderson’s Cosmere.

@Aviandelight @Mothra This is a great series. I recently did a re-read and it still holds up.

@GunnarRunnar oh then yeah, don’t ask questions you don’t want the answer to.

@GunnarRunnar to be fair, the OP is not the one that asked for an explanation.

@scratch There is a translate feature built in, but it requires that your instance have configured it, since it utilizes a a third-party service for the translation. You reach out to your instance admin to ask about it.

@RxBrad @flameguy21
I think they were more comparing the userbase of Mastodon against its corporate-owned alternatives, not to other fediverse apps.

@kiddblur Kinda, yeah.

And if you’re interested, you can pick up Assassin’s Apprentice, Royal Assassin, and Assassin’s Quest audiobooks on Chirp Books for $4 or less each.

@jay91 Group support appears to be in the works. In the mean-time, people on Mastodon can still follow group accounts and those group accounts will boost posts into their followers’ feeds. For example, that’s how I saw this post to reply to.

@MayonnaiseArch There are extensions which make it easier to interact with remote instances, like Roam With Mastodon. https://fo.llow.social/roam

@teft

I basically agree with this.

@steal_your_face
Not Mastodon, but supposedly built on ActivityPub and plans to open federation some time in the future.

@BricksDont
Death Gate Cycle is a classic, dragonlance-like fantasy. It takes itself noticeably less serious than WoT. But it’s pretty fun, good cast of characters.

It’s the first fantasy series I ever read so it holds a special place for me, even if WoT is my favorite.

@TimTheEnchanter
I’ve read most of the Wheel of Time books more than anything else.

I recently did a reread of the Death Gate Cycle. Kinda felt like the prototype to the cosmere.

And recently reread the Memory, Sorrow and Thorn trilogy from Tad Williams

Same experience.

@SeverianWolf @literature

@mmasnick any interest in getting one of the beehaw.org admins on the podcast or something?

@ArtVandelay

Oh that’s interesting. Maybe because I’m posting from my Mastodon account. I feel like I’ve had replies from Lemmy though. 🤔

@Los Howbee y’all
