Re: Citadel Online, Chapter 10.

Really like CO and great to see it’s continuing. Is this really a short story now?

Re: Need some new author recommendations!

I started reading Daedalus and absolutely flew through the 121 available chapters in about 2 days. Military sci-fi focused around exo-suit and mecha. So far there is very little actual live combat, but the plot starts with a 9-year-old protagonist with a goal to start at military academy. There is a...

Re: Lets take a poll

I'm a patient person so I'd love anything, but I've always wanted to see where things in the "Kit" Kitstrom universe would go. I'd certainly like an update from Kit, though Fel would need to come up with some kind of new conflict or contention in Kit's universe to make it compelling. Othe...

Re: Retribution, Chapter 9.

Excellent chapter, though was a bit peeved at the loose "science" around the exploding super ship Fel described in this chapter. Fel is usually great at making the space magic plausible, but shockwaves in space can't happen, unless you make it more science fiction-y. Blast shockwaves requi...

Re: Updatish.

We're good as long as Fel doesn't get into modded minecraft. If he starts something like Skyblock or Direwolf20 mod pack, we might not get a chapter for months.

I would be more interested in knowing if Fel had any run-ins with the infamous Florida Man:

Re: Feel and the My Little Pony Movie

Took my daughters to see the MLP movie, I have one right in the middle of the target demographic. It was about as good and had a similar plot line to most of the MLP season closer two part episodes, just twice as long.

Re: Audiobooks

I prefer function over style when it comes to Audiobooks. One hour commutes twice a day are so much better with books read out loud. For general usage, an app I think was suggested somewhere on this site works great for me. Voice Dream. Just throw any kind of text / book file at it and it will read ...

Re: Conviction, chapter 13.

Argh, we were spoiled by 2 chapter releases only days apart. Now I'm refreshing the forum page multiple times per hour it seems. More than half done is better than nothing I guess. As long as lawns/pokemon/WoW/MLP do not get too much in the way, it shouldn't be too much longer now.

Re: A possible return to Kit

Although I'm not a big fan of it usually, Fel could write it as a time skip. Get into day-to-day of 2016 of Kit's life, and maybe bring up the significant events of 2008-16 in his life as back story in the continuation.

Re: Fiction like Kit

I would go for Nathan Lowell's Trader's Tales series starting with Quarter Share for a similar feel to Kit. It is sci-fi though so it's more of a slice of space life, but really focuses on a guy making his way in the galaxy. No aliens, desperate struggles for the fate of the universe, and only a tou...

Re: So, now that that's nearly over...

Just re-read Kit and this post reminded me of a passage in it: He leaned his head back against the velvet-covered wall behind him, watching a riding mower roll back and forth across the football field-sized front lawn, part of the meticulous grooming the entire manor underwent on a weekly basis. Eve...

Re: Good Books (Scifi)

I am looking for novels online or otherwise that are similar to the Subjugation Universe and Star force series by Ayr-ki Jyr in the regards to empire building in a science fiction setting.

Disney Zootopia?

Looks like Disney just stole Fel's entire premise from his Kit Vulpan stories.

Re: Yeah, so....

I think subjugation was halted at a good place. I do want to see more of that world, but I'd want another epic story that is up to par with what has been written to date. On the other hand, I would like to see more of Kit in the near future. Though Fox and the Hawk is a nice story too, just feels a ...
