I read every book they cover and have submitted dumb sentences for almost every episode

best book they've covered: Eye of Argon - short, paints a sympathetic picture of the author as a nerdy teenager who's really bad at writing, greatest closing sentence in all of english literature

worst book they've covered: Shadow Moon - long and dull, sequel to a movie that's not even good (Willow), often feels like a generic fantasy novel that's just had Willow stuff inserted for franchise opportunities

John Scalzi has definitely written some better stuff than that. I think the Kline conspiracy theory is only around because everyone's trying to imitate that style, given how popular it was.

I've always hoped 372 would do The Starlight Barking (sequel to 101 Dalmatians).

hey guess what the next book is

Isn’t Dogstar the name of Keanu’s band?

Also please don’t correct me because I choose to believe that it is now.

Edit: holy poo poo it is. Why would this knowledge be floating around in my brain?

Edit Edit: okay I’ve already completely forgotten the name of this book and it thought it was named something to do with “Dogstar”

There is a Dog Star in the book. I'm about 1/3 through and haven't seen it yet.

When I looked at the patreon poll earlier today, Teen Archaeologists was winning with a healthy margin, but all 3 books were at 30-something%. I hope they get to all three of these at some point. Really good choices.

The characters were 15 and 13, the author was like 30. Gross!

Get ready for everything to be framed in terms of Sword Art Online.

They probably haven't heard of that either but I think it's Cline's newest reference.

He explicitly referenced it in Ready Player Two.

Yeah, I think I misunderstood your post.

Anyway, I'm reading the Bat City book and it SUCKS!
