Online Reading (webnovels and so on)

[Galeigh 284]

I have devoted a disgusting amount time to reading this type of stuff. There is some really good stuff there and some really, really bad stuff. But half the fun for me is trying to dig up stuff I wouldn't normally give a second look at. 

 

If you're curious my go to sites are Wuxiaworld.com and Royalroadl.com

 

WW focuses mostly on Chinese translations, but has recently branched into Korean and a few original works. I recommend Martial World as a starter. DO NOT read Martial God Asura that shit is pure trash.  

 

RR is 99% original content. I recommend Threadbare as a solid starting point.

For a while I was reading this really good one called UNSONG, which is it's whole own genre. Set in an alternate present; Kabbalah is real, and corporations have begun Digital Rights Management of them. People are employed to work in cubicles while computers present them with random strings that could be magic words (Names of God). They recite these words to see if anything happens. If you discover one, the corporation owns it and licenses it to consumers. Demi-religious Hacker groups exist who insist that these are Names of God, and should not be owned. It also goes into mad shit like the alternate "Moon Landing" where Neil Armstrong was the first person to go to the other side of the firmament around Earth, and what all the Angels are up to.

 

I never got around to finishing it, (It's long!) but it's pretty great. Would advise for fans of Pratchett, William Gibson, and Garth Ennis.
