I started browsing here about two years ago, helped me transition from a bleeding heart liberal into a proper lefty...

Fugg. I just bought a bunch of books from amazon… I'll put it on my list of books to get to in the future though.

Thanks fam, I appreciate it.

As an FYI for everyone else, the ebook is just 3.99. I also set it up so you can share it with whoever you want without amazon spurging out.

tbh the blurb sounds terrible. How long is it?

What about it sounds terrible? I can always go back and fix it.

It's 477 pages long.

Also, I realized my tripcode was wrong, just fixed it

What went wrong

With Holla Forums?

I meant the story doesn't sound very interesting and nothing that stands out from regular genre fiction.

But for the blub, the last paragraph has too many elements that people can lose interest. Omit his arch-rival and mention more details about Praetorian Guard or Anarchists.

But I do admire your tenacity. I have given up on stories much much shorter than yours (129 pages). Plus I am somewhat bitter coz I too thought a story of a Strinerfag and his property roaming around a decaying Republic struggling with class warfare

So who is going to post the pdf

Nice, post pdf

CHI

Those aren't bad ideas, although his arch-rival is a big part of the story… he actually works with the head of the Praetorian guard though. Maybe I could mention the fact they are working together? There's also an aspect to it that the Praetorian guard are a big part of the class struggle, in that the industrialists use them to discipline the labor force, break up strikes, arrest labor organizers, and are the principle opposition to the anarchists.

And thanks. It took about 4 years to get this thing finished. The MC isn't really a stirnerfag although the anarchists have a sort of egoist bend to their ideology. I do have another story idea of a character inspired my Max who owns a haunted mansion and has to stop his sister from using spooks and an enchanted poker card from taking over the continental United States.

Tell ya what, if ya'll promise to give a nice star rating on amazon and goodreads, I'll post the PDF. Deal?

Yes that will make it stand out from the sea of 'Hero's Journey' genre fiction out there.

Sounds cool, I like alt history. Are you familiar with Red Star? It's basically a pre-fujoshi-bait Final Fantasy world which reached the modern age and Cold War.

Good job, OP

No I'm not but that sounds interesting. I'll take a look. Thanks.

I wanted something about the premise of the story to really stand out, and since I was taking Latin at the time, the image of an industrial ancient Rome with all the traditions and idiosyncrasies clashing with turn of the century technology really stood out to me. In hindsight, I can see that it colored a lot of the conflict in the book. As the Senate is split between an aristocratic faction and an industrialist faction, the aristocratic faction often uses the worker's frustrations and their demands as leverage against the industrialist faction.

Done and done
You already got 5 stars on both sites, from a bunch of reviewers.
So please post pdf.

We have a deal

Wait you mean before and after reading it? I can do both

I'd appreciate a written review after you read it, but stars for now would be appreciated.

I'll read it and get a fag I know to review it to a niche community of pseudo-intellectuals.

Alright here's the PDF

Oh yeah, I just remembered Age of Decandence. It doesn't involve gommies or anything, but are an unusual take on a Roman world. I've been told it's GOTYAYEY but I haven't tried it yet.

It was OK, but it took them fucking forever to release it and turn-based with only one character is shit tbh.

Fuck, thank you man. If possible, send me an email when he does that, reviews are super important in this business

Sent him a pdf and your address. He's not really big but he reaches people you probably wouldn't access from Holla Forums.

He recommended this to me a while back, you may want to give it a read, it seems kinda similar to what you wrote.

I'll give it a once over, looks interesting. Thanks fam.

Are any of your friend's reviews online, by any chance?

So this is kinda like what happens when Plato's Republic starts crumbling?

ps nice job OP, good to know this board has some talent besides memes.

Please epub, PDF sucks on phone and e-reader.

That's actually a pretty apt way to describe it.

Same deal with PDF. Rate it on goodreads/amazon and I'll hand it over.

Of course it's a fucking market "socialist" who tries using Holla Forums as an marketing platform.

he provided the .pdf already faglord

ok, so Holla Forums doesn't like epubs for some reason
does anyone know a platform that can temporarily host that sort of thing? Otherwise you can email me and I'll send it to you.

and since I just realized I forgot to link it in thread, here's the goodreads page

Sounds edgy

I try not to go overboard. You're welcome to check for yourself tho

OP, you are a pretty cool guy. Will read.

No user, you're a pretty cool guy.

Hey is it true that catgrill drawfag left the board because she became disgusted by it?
i can't blame her if that is true tbh

Nah, she's just been busy with work and deadlines and real life.

Bookzz.org is a large collection and they respond to takedown requests. Also one bigtorrent.org

Finished the prologue. So…magic and gods are real in this world? Didn't expect that.

Oh yeah, I might have forgotten to mention that. Magic's a big part and I sort of use it to set the tone and do some world building as every time a character uses magic they have to either tell a story or a poem. On a more meta level, if it weren't for magic in the story the liberal attempts to fix things would have ended much worse.
