Re: Star Wars - last jedi
..., i have no interest in some of the big names in the genre. The Star Wars expanded universe isn't all that bad. It got me reading english books when I was young - translation took more than a year per book and I just couldn't wait so I ordered an english book. Had the nice side effect of providi...

Re: Star Wars - last jedi
The last few star trek movies also took a different route than previous series or books, but they at least tried to reason that this new star trek is in a parallel universe and so things might be a bit different. Star Wars just throws nice special effects at us and expects a rain of gold as a result...

Re: Retribution, chapter 3, (spoilers)
They have some idea - but have they internalized the information and processed it... followed up by implementing SOPs to deal with such firepower? They will certainly have done so by the time the next fleet arrives. That is months or even years away and the lack of any more intel will certainly get...

Re: Retribution, chapter 3, (spoilers)
As far as the syndicate is aware of, for one of their super ships to be destroyed is prolonged bombardment and firepower. So while they might take damage, their heavy armament can take out the enemy ships. Oh? I don't remember any mention of how those super ships were destroyed in their home galaxy...

Re: Retribution, chapter 3, (spoilers)
While the syndicate could be aware of the abilities of the kArrine ships, they won't realise the true scale of their ability of unleashing destruction against their ships. It is unprecedented to them that ships so small could be such a viable threat to ships so big and armed/armored. They would be ...

Re: Retribution, chapter 3, (spoilers)
I like the Oye trees because they are giant magical trees, that apparently give really delicious fruit. How can you not? I really like elephants! They are intelligent, have feelings and just look amazing. So far, everybody tells me to just go to the zoo to look at an elephant and otherwise just buy...

Re: Retribution, chapter 3, (spoilers)
Jason [...], he might be able to convince the Oye trees to grow on more worlds, not necessarily forests of them but at minimum a single giant tree. Oh, please, dear tree seed, grow on this world. I'll leave tomorrow one way or another but i think you'll like growing into a big tree all alone among ...

Re: Retribution, chapter 3, (spoilers)
I don't see Jason as the type to simply contemplate the universe and do nothing for centuries, he is a more active individual. I could see him exploring the cosmos, using other telepathic races as beacons in the darkness to locate life accross the stars. Imagine if he planted an Oye tree on every s...

Re: Retribution, chapter 3, (spoilers)
Does this mean that Jason will be directing whoever the current Duke or Duchess of house Karinne from the ascended plane? That house Karinne will become the intergalactic police, directed by a by those who have followed Jason to a higher plane of existence? With no secret plans safe from those who ...

Re: Retribution, chapter 3, (spoilers)
the Ancients from Star Gate (except hopefully not as arrogant or stupid). While they weren't exactly the good guys and often were given as a reason why everything the SG Teams did was so complicated and difficult when the Ancients could have just snipped their fingers and puff, gone would be the pr...

Re: Good Books (Scifi)
http://morfs.nowhere2go.org The site hasn't been updated in over a year but most of the stories are complete. It did sound like it might make an interesting story, but as far as I can see, there are dozens of stories there and your quoted blurb is a general baseline on which all follow up stories a...

Royalroad is royalroadl.com I believe. It started out as a fanfic site for Royal Road (a Korean? comic/manga) So it has a lot of game based original fiction now. royalroadl.com started out as a translation of "The Moonlight Sculptor", a korean light novel about a poor korean player playin...

...because the Consortium has shown that they will throw their ethics out the window in the name of survival (aka the attack on Karis) and so would like to use the Dreamers themselves...

Re: Conviction chapter 13
What I find strange is, they find the super ship with that massive hole and a few months later they are putting those kinds of holes in super ships. The first super ships where destroyed a long time ago. It's hard to fathom two species on the same technological path. Could there be a strange versio...
