Our rules have been updated and given
their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!
Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it,
follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.

Because let me tell you about Matthew Reilly.
adored
it
it blew my mind
I couldn't figure out why they didn't make us read it in school
I got it for people as a gift
The Magic Kingdom Of Landover series
For the longest time I thought they were written by Terry Goodkind and I was ashamed
now I know it's Terry Brooks
slightly less ashamed
I can still remember the creeping revelation as I realized sword of shannara was completely shamelessly playing mad libs with lord of the rings

Hatchet
I fuckin' loved Hatchet
what do you mean, when we were younger
What do you mean "younger"
I read Scarecrow and the Army of Thieves like 3 months ago
Google+
Hatchet had the semi-sequel that was like what if he didn't make it out before winter? and I was like YOU CAN DO THAT?
Google+
I'm surprised I didn't become a crazy survivalist
That still counts as younger!
I say this, being someone who reads Hovercar Racer regularly.
I never caught that since I read LOTR years later.
But I really liked Allanon.
edit:
The look on my Mom's face when she saw that book.
Steam: cristke
i will never understand how the dude was able to get away with writing like a hundred of them
like, why the publisher didn't take one look at them and go, "yeah, your young adult fiction is about the magical power women's underwear exerts over the minds of men, maybe stop thinking about that for a while"
I think he wrote a bunch more, actually
I remember one where he goes back out there with a journalist and oh no the journalist gets sick so he has to take care of him AND SURVIVE
And then there was the version of Hatchet he wrote that took place in outer space!
Did your head explode like a watermelon?

mind you i read every single one of them
i read quite a few of them
remember how a lady shifted between ugly + smart and pretty + stupid

OH FUCK YES SOMEONE ELSE READ THE TRANSALL SAGA
THANK YOU
Google+
I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE
Looks like it
Hatchet, The River, Brian's Winter, Brian's Return, and Brian's Hunt
I only read Hatchet and BW though
Google+
That book threw middle school GG for a fucking loop
Google+
He would later change his name to Les Stroud and make my favorite series.
I still own them, actually
I spent summers up in country like that, reading them takes me back there
wow and it's only just now i realized how that was the worst thing in the world
I fucking hated that bittersweet ending when I was younger because NOOOOOOO
