Maybe eggs? Or corn in some sort of sticky sauce?

Oh, i thought the title was clickbait, but it really is not. Poor sunfish, but i guess such is life if you're not an apex predator.

They still do, at least where i live (western europe). Source: went to the cinema last sunday

Might also be a partial rollout to check reception and / or technical issues. I personally try to avoid any site that does this

Never heard of it, i'll check it out, thank you!

I've read the first three so far, taking a break now.

Honestly, i found the first book the hardest and, at least in my view, it is the least "consistent". The second and third book actually seem to repeat important information more often, which gave me the confidence to just keep reading without worrying too much about missing stuff. I'm sure i missed some points and details, but i could follow the story fine.

Actually in some cases i was sure i missed something, took a note to look it up after finishing the book, then upon looking it up online i found that no, there really wasn't that much more to it or it'll get explained in later books :)

Edit: I read Dune years ago and can't really remember how difficult it was, sorry. I think i found the worldbuilding in Dune to be kind of lacking? That is not a problem with the Malazan books. I haven't read The Road

Yeah, not only does Adobe provide a DRM solution, seems like their reader doesn't even properly work.

Another reason to dislike Adobe: I'm using Linux and reading on an old Kindle Paperwhite i recently put KOReader on. Since i don't want to support amazon anyway I'm trying to buy books directly from authors, or if that doesn't work, from other book stores. The problem? Most ship the books using "Adobe DRM", meaning you get a *.acsm file, supposed to be opened with some Adobe tool to download the book you bought. This tool is of course not available on Linux, and even if it were, why not just provide the file directly?

There is acsmdownloader which works fine, but again, i have to jump through hoops to download my bought book (my bad for actually wanting to support authors i guess...). Sadly, this format of ebook delivery seems to have become the standard nowadays. Thank you Adobe...

Thank you to Tor Books for actually providing their files without DRM, though! At least one publisher seems to be doing it right.

Thank you, always love posts like these :) Bunderkin especially looks interesting and fun

It does, thanks!

Searching for Yokai gives me this result: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Y%C5%8Dkai

Or is this something different?

Look around panicked, half jump / half fall off, run a few meters in the garden like crazy then act like nothing happened

Rail Route does not tick all the boxes and is higher level, but the signalling and shared track mechanisms are done quite well.
