I know this is probably a really uncommon take, but I think 3-5 and 2-4 really are the best in the trilogy. Meanwhile I'm really sorry to say that 2-3 is the worst one. I hope you guys can understand even if it probably isn't something you've heard before
Personally I can see Oda ending up the 4th or 3rd best-selling author of all time. I can't imagine that his sales will surpass Shakespeare or Christie though, simply because their numbers are so incredibly high already and their works still continue to sell very well
Compared to many other authors on this list Oda has a big advantage because he is still creating new works as well as appealing much more to younger readers than most of the people here. On the flip side, the declining sales of books in the current day could hold Oda back. One Piece also has the weird dinstinction of being an extremely long, extremely seralized series. It's not like one of Agatha Christie's novels where you can simply buy any one at any time.
Obviously number of sales doesn't really matter. I just thought it's interesting to think about
Hey guys, what are some of the best fantasy series or novels with a naval setting. So it can be about pirates, sailors, traders, the navy or anything like that. So long as the setting really leans into naval travel and being on the ocean.
Obviously Liveship Traders is the most famous one of these and I love it, it is the best trilogy Hobb has made imo. But if I didn't say no Liveship Traders every post would just be Liveship Traders lmao. I wanna hear about some lesser known series like this!
Nolan will save this sub by allowing us to finally shitpost about British People instead
Thanks in advance! Always felt my eyes make me look angry for some reason
I'm in the early stages of my decomp (2 months in) and I was thinking of going with a different surgeon. My main reason why is mostly just that I'd like to speak to a surgeon in my area that does implants along with the usual double jaw surgery. For those people who DID switch surgeons midway through, how was it? Was your ortho accomodating to the idea of you wanting to make a change? I'm worried that it will be very awkward or that my ortho will flat out refuse the change in surgeon.
In typical Tad fashion one book has become two. He lists it up on his website here:

So it seems as many people expected Splintered Sun will actually be a duology. Exciting stuff. Maybe if we're lucky Tad will accidentally make the second book too long as well lmao
