Good day everyone!

I’ve noticed on the net just how split the community is regarding the quality of the spin-off. From what I can tell, it seems like the veteran readers absolutely hate it, while the newer fans love it—but I could be completely wrong.

Let’s put this theory to the test. Please drop a comment answering two things:

1. How long have you been reading ToG?
2. What are your honest thoughts on the spin-off?

Please keep your answers succinct and clear. I’ll tally up the comments in a week and post the final results to see if the divide is real.

Personally, I hated the spin-off. While I'm not quite a Day 1 reader, I've been actively reading the series for about 8 years now.

Don't forget to upvote this post so it reaches as many people as possible—the more data we get, the better!

Hey everyone,

Just wanted to drop a quick shout-out post and ask for some recommendations. I recently finished The Umbral Storm and Sanguine Sands by Alec Hutson and absolutely loved them. Honestly, I think Hutson needs to be talked about way more on here than he is—the world-building and the progression elements in those books are top-tier.

If any of you have read them, what did you think? What were your favorite parts?

Right now, I’m about to dive into Donnie Dust’s Wild Wisdom (switching it up with some cool real-world primitive skills/survival stuff), but once I'm done, I want to jump right back into a great fantasy book.

To give you a jumping-off point for what I like:

• Huge Fan: Cradle by Will Wight (love a good progression system) and the Cosmere by Brandon Sanderson (epic scope, hard magic).
• Not For Me: I absolutely hated The Kingkiller Chronicle (Kvothe just wasn't it for me).

If anyone has some solid recs that fit that vibe, let me know!

(And hey, if Alec Hutson by some rare chance actually browses this sub: man, your work is highly appreciated and awesome. If you see this, which of your other series should I dive into next?)

Thanks for reading!
