Yeah, amazing how a character who gets two scenes and two other mentions in one book becomes one of the greatest scoundrel/champions ever in his own series decades later... Believe I've read exactly half of the series (that's all I've been able to find used or below cover price on Kindle) - so far, favorite scene is when he interacts with Sherlock Holmes.
Flashman and the Tiger was an interesting book, and the Sherlock story was certainly glorious!
I had Scribd on an old phone but never updated it or brought it to either of the last two. Last time I checked, Amazon had all but one - but they were all like $11-18 USD for paperback or print (same price, if you could get enough to not pay shipping) - if I had the cash, I would have bought the paperbacks.
Bruh. You talk about the same thing in two threads. Get a room.
Eh but I'm bankrupt. Morally and really...
Mate, you made two threads on the same thing.
S'pose the sequel is a little milder. Yet they are close enough that many arguments are relevant to both topics.One is about fanfics, the other is about those who write them.
If both my threads were serious, I would argue with you on difference. HOWEVER, these are not serious threads. Enjoy the ride.
The matter is life or death! Without the genre known as fanfiction (which we can exclude from our searches), bad authors would flood the other genres more easily. How else would they expose themselves as bad at worldbuilding? I will fight tooth, claw, and nail for that genre to exist (so I can exclude it from searches).If both my threads were serious, I would argue with you on difference. HOWEVER, these are not serious threads. Enjoy the ride.
Based.
This is the singular best reason for it to exist.
Well, many, perhaps even most, of us, I suspect, began writing either "fan fiction" or "alternate ending" stories - but then most also grow out of that phase.
NECROMANCER!
QUICK KILL IT WITH FIRE!
Someone else started the ritual, I just tossed out the final lines... :D
