Oh, awesome. Time to read a bunch of things! One thing I'll just quickly note about Shadow -- I'm holding off on the ebook until the sequel is ready to go as well (early-mid 2024, hopefully.) Just if people were waiting for that.

A couple more from the self-publishing thread. I have been quite impressed by the quality of self-published goon books. Vampire on the Orient Express by freebooter aka Shane Carrow. My review: "This is one of those wonderful "Snakes on a Plane" things where you get exactly what it says on the tin. There is a vampire on the Orient Express, and our intrepid heroes must defeat it. Both the vampire and the Orient Express are vividly described, so reading the book feels like taking an exotic vacation in your mind, with added vampire action. Unlike another reviewer, I liked how the protagonists encounter the vampire almost immediately after boarding the train. It would be pointless to drag out the reveal when the reader has already seen the title." Same author: Werewolf on the Western Front The Heart of the Mummy End Times: The Complete Series  Ebb Tide: A Post-Zombie Apocalypse Thriller (The Southwind Saga Book 1) by jazzyjay aka Jase Kovacs. A young women survived the zombie apocalypse by being on a boat, so now she must scavenge for supplies to keep her boat running while fighting zombies with an M4 and monologuing about technical details of boating. One of the things I like about self-published fiction is when it allows the author to really nerd out about a technical interest of theirs that trad publishers would consider of too narrow interest. I don't own a boat, but this made me want to, so I can sail into the sunset when the apocalypse happens. Unfortunately, the book suffers from a lack of editing and a multitude of grammatical errors, which prevents me from recommending it unconditionally. If you are willing to forgive that, the prose itself is quite good. Same author: Slack Water (Southwind Saga 2) Flood Tide (Southwind Saga 3) The Silent Circus: A Dark Fable A Dirty Peace SimonChris posted:

Added both lists! I reserve the right to condense some of the authors' works down a little, because I foolishly did not reserve the second and third posts, so I may bump up against post size limits. We'll see. Or I'll create a google sheet and link it, or something, idk.

I wrote this, all readable on the website. It's about a schizophrenic women recovering from a psychotic episode. Goons have said things ranging from it being surprisingly "excellent" and, to paraphrase, "It's hard to believe an internet friend wrote something this good." http://whatisharmony.com/

I have some from a the self-publishing thread that I had in my wishlist, some of these are older books from years ago, most I had to search that thread to find the goon handles. I didn't save any of the erotic book info/books from that thread and a lot of it was deleted when people were doxxed. I think some of these authors just wrote one book and stopped but the first one wrote a lot of military science fiction DogForge by Casey Calouette aka Yooper Sundered Heavens (The Prophetess Saga Book 1) by Omar Mukhtar aka Fuego Fish Tainted: An Astin Fell Novel by H.C. Cavall (Author) aka Chokes McGee The Secret of the Summer Sweetheart: A Cozy Detective Agency Novel by Gregory RE Gallagher aka feedmyleg Synthesis by Kyle Harris I could not figure out this person's handle but they wrote this and a sequel novella I am 100% positive I missed a few but they blended in with the other kindle stuff I bought in that period

So I had the thought that while it would be easy enough to figure it out, maybe just include the real name without a 1:1 assignment to their forums name. That way at least while people could creep on them it won't get sucked up by an automatic indexer and show up on google for the next 50 years. But to add to the list, if you wan't to include long form graphic novels under the book umbrella you've got Tom Bloom / Tom Parkinson-Morgan doing K6BD As for books, qntm is a goon author - https://www.goodreads.com/author/list/8352974.qntm, although he took his real name off his books either for privacy or because having the author be a cryptic phrase sold better.

I obviously am happy to remove anyone's username if they'd like, but I'm not altogether sure if that should be the default. Also happy to hear other opinions, of course. ...fwiw, I haven't been posting "adding these" to every post but I generally am caught up within a day or so of any posts in the thread.
