>>11368 Sure.

Tolkien won his points for ingenuity, obsession, and world building. Cook just plays a variation on a theme, combining grim&dark with classic fantasy. Fun stuff, my favorite of all the writers in that sub-genre so far, but it's still nothing outstanding.

It's crappy poetry time? Nice

like drunken fireflies
adrift in a knowing wind,
embers come to rest
on her open palms.

blinking into dulled hues
of orange, they float
away as ashen flakes,

leaving, like twisted
black ribbons,

drawings upon her skin.

Distribute my thoughts ill hand them out in boxes. No one will open them its okay they mostly are hoaxes. I try my best to tell people the truth that can float around in here. Insanity is all I can decipher for you to hear. So be like freud and analyze my ideas. Tell my who I wanna fuck and how I wanna fuck… FUCK IT

Take a hundred years its alright. As long as when you finally reach the end you get it right. I wanna make sure you see this. Hold on take a swig of this It will become a little more clear if your head is a little less clear. FUCK IT.

the world is one differential equation
order unknown
but we know it is solved by a power function
and kind of a special one too
see, its because the singular point
its somewhere in the middle
and the radius of convergence
its the size of one person
however you can list the atoms
as if there is a mind of god
and a list
so we take out the terms not in phase
n doesnt matter
its a dummy variable
and then we combine everything

It was pretty terrible. Exploiting familiar names for automatic recognition and cheap sales like that is shameless: be it a novel, comic book, or a movie.

The comics were pretty good actually and I don't really care about exploitation if it's entertaining enough but the film was just terrible.

Sage because I didn't mean to derail the thread.

any book on social engeering should be OK, although I only know Art of Deception by Kevin Mitnick

Are you talking about the novel Native Tongue by Suzette Haden Elgin or the non-fiction book Native Tongues by Charles Berlitz?

Choke, by Chuck Palahniuk. Lying, deceiving, sex and exploitation.

This is that guy who wrote a book composed completely of declarative statements, isn't it? We had a thread on this once before. I think there was an e-book posted here at one time... does that still exist? When I last tried to read it, my nervous tick started acting up and I began to hear a weird buzzing sound that kept getting louder with each page I read. Only made it through about half a chapter. I would really like another go at that book.

Marquis de Sade, anyone?

If a market exists, people will capitalize upon it. This seems like one of those genres that small publishers and new authors actually have a chance to establish themselves in because old and established publishers wouldn't touch the material at the risk of sullying their names. Sort of like when gay romance was first established as a genre.

>small publishers
City Lights Publishers sure fits the bill. Small publisher specializing in controversial fiction and radical political non-fiction. That seems to be their bread and butter. Nobody else was willing to publish Story of the Eye, at least not in The United States.

Don't know what you're talking about, but The Wasp Factory is a good book about a psycho. And just below this thread someone was recommending American Psycho.
