I am not at all confident that anyone, least of all these two chuckleheads, are capable of adapting this series faithfully. IMO this is a story best kept to the page, at least for now.

I’m expecting original Dune (1984) levels bad.

Whelp, as someone who is currently on a Baldur’s Gate binge, you’ve sold me - will add to my TBR!

I’ve not tried to get into any fantasy pulp fiction, but I have been on a big fantasy kick overall this year so I may have to check this out - thanks!

Oh wow OK you win the thread! Those magazines are wonderful, what fun items to have in your collection.

I think it can sometimes be difficult to consume media from periods where the common belief systems were just so antithetical to today’s way of thinking (especially older pulp) but it sounds like you have a fair way of handing the dated ideologies 😊

Is Prey the one with the nanobots?

Yes that’s correct! It left quite an impression on me and I am low key weary of the idea of nanobots to this day.

Thank you for these suggestions! I’ve heard of these authors but not actually read any of their work. They may be good to keep in mind the next time I hit a reading block, because techno thrillers just work for me.

Another member of the “this may be inappropriate for my age” club - nice! I’d agree, I think Palahniuk definitely falls into this category.

I’m very excited for Dead Club City by Nothing But Thieves - I’m a sucker for a concept album and I’ve really enjoyed their backlist.

Never Ending Song by Conan Gray

It’s a complete ear worm for me!
