Supreme Leader has opened a new library for minions to peruse and keep up with all recs off the podcast 🚨 🚨

those chonky and/or intimidating Fantasy/Sci-fi books you really want to read but are too scared to start! let's hype each other up to finally dive into those books we just KNOW will be a 5 ⭐️

all books that have been adapted to another medium. mostly film and TV but other adaptations might get mixed in.

All the fantasy and horror with Gritty, Grimdark worldbuilding, settings, and characters who are far to corrupt to just be considered "morally grey". 18+ gritty realism in speculative fiction. "Hell is empty; all the devils are here."

Period Crime Fiction & Grimdark Fantasy🖤⚔️ Heists, gangs, speakeasies, schemes and dark alleyways. Stories that center around characters from a criminal underworld. For fans of Pirates of the Carribean, GoT and Arcane.

Books most likely to be recommended to you by a BookTok Bro.

Books that feature dragons because there is never enough dragons

Dragons, Wyrms and all those other fire-breathing creepy crawlies! Even if not all the dragons in these books breathe fire in the first place (only the first book of a series is added to this list)

Books which have been spoofed / had characters in them played by the Muppets, in movies or TV. (Yes, I have counted movie book adaptation spoofs). (No, I have no regrets).

Subverting expectations and getting meta in the genre sandbox! Books that play with genre, subvert the traditional, switch things up with language and form, offer a new angle for a retelling, or mash and mix things up before spitting out a brand new tale. Includes works that are mainstream now but were considered a subversion of the familiar in the time period in which they were published. Suggestions always welcome!

Urgently seeking suggestions, any and all input is welcome! A list for men in sci-fi/fantasy who are pathetic, reminiscent of kicked dogs, described as poor little meow meows, drowning in their own emptiness, and/or generally have an intense aura of being a sad loser with no life. Having a capacity to be fixed is entirely optional. If you want to demonstrate why a man is a loser, feel free to do so at great length in the comments so that we all may further our studies in male patheticology.

Just a fun little list of books that have inspired songs. Please list the book and the song with the artist in your suggestions, or if it's a concept album based on a book, just include the book and the album with the artist. I will not be including any books by JKR, Neil Gaiman, or Orson Scott Card, or songs by Iced Earth. Will not be adding musicals based on books, songs written for films based on books, or songs that are classic poems to music.

books that received video game adaptations/inspired games
