Best asian mythology books according to redditors

EY recently published a light novel, A Girl Corrupted by the Internet is the Summoned Hero?! Short but fun.

The Naruto rationalist fic The Waves Arisen may have been written by EY under a pseudonym. It's similar to HPMOR in style, though again it's much shorter.

His prior novel for sale on Amazon was A Girl Corrupted by the Internet is the Summoned Hero?!.

Here is the Gumroad version.

Here is the first four out of thirteen chapters for free on his website.

I am unaware of any other novels on sale by him other than Rationality: From AI to Zombies (and that one's free unless you feel like donating some money to him).

If you happen to be Dutch, you can probably buy it here. It's made by two Dutch artists, but apparently was also translated to English under the name "Gnomes", which you can find here . Hopefully this is what you were looking for! I loved those books as a kid, and I still browse them sometimes.

He published this almost a year ago: A Girl Corrupted by the Internet is the Summoned Hero?!

It looks like Dark Lord's Answer was written first, but not published first because it wasn't up to Eliezer's standards, but he decided to publish it anyway.

It's an Italian TV show (very poorly dubbed into english, mine adult ears now tell me), based off of an [awesome book] (http://www.amazon.com/Gnomes-Deluxe-Collectors-Edition-Huygen/dp/0810998467 ) originally published in The Netherlands. I think it aired on Nickelodeon during the 80's but it's on Amazon Prime now, woo!

I believe it's in this one which is the re-print of the one I had as a kid.

just read yudkowsky's erotic isekai

e: oh no it's on libgen. is anyone brave enough to read it and report back?

Yup, there it is. Guess I should have googled more thoroughly.

The LN is licensed, its currently at volume 11

Accelarator's manga is al licensed

What do I read first the manga or LN

This reminds me of one of Rien Poortvliet’s illustrations in the 1970s “Gnomes” book.link

More on the fantasy lane, but who doesn't like gnomes? If you haven't read or browsed this classic, you're missing out. It's beautifully illustrated with intricate and often hidden details and reads like a field guide to the hidden world of gnomes, trolls, and other fantastical creatures.

Fucking hell, Wizard alt-right. That is fucking terrifying. You're amazing. Is the "Rookie War" something your timeline has happening currently?

I know you said in another post that you've considered writing a book but that you find it easier to write history and backstories rather than action and adventure. Have you considered writing it as a history textbook?

Or maybe a coffee table book. Something similar to Gnomes by Wil Huygen and illustrated by Rien Poortvliet, but doing it as a history of the magical world instead of an anthropological look at Gnome culture.

Just collecting the posts you've made here would be about 75% of the writing.

I really enjoyed Dragon Sword and Wind Child by Noriko Ogiwara. It may slant YA, but I read it as an adult and liked it.

There is this short novel. Same premise, brilliant execution:

Not scifi by a long way, but Brian Froud & Alan Lee's book Faeries (google images) is one of the most beautiful compilations of art I've ever seen - think "history of Irish folklore" done in the style of the Dark Crystal and The Labyrinth. Myths from around the world are illustrated in fantastic style.
Similarly, Brian Froud's Gnomes is an absolutely gorgeous book presenting itself as a documentary of the lives of gnomes from around the "old-world" (Ireland across to Siberia), and how they work with & around woodland animals. If you grew up with access to woods or forests, this is basically a beautifully-illustrated love story to that magic.

Going slightly more towards scifi now with Terry Pratchett's The Last Hero illustrated by Paul Kidby. More a comicbook than anything else, but does have amusing technically-illustrated-descriptions of vehicles, characters, animals and scenes that you don't normally get from the novels.

Nice! It was this book that made me love gnomes. Welcome to RAOA!

Seriously. Do none of you people remember that there's an entire guide to Gnomes out there?

The dictionary.

I changed my mind. This was very Anglo-centric of me, and wouldn't get very much about our world across. Instead I choose... Gnomes.
