Goodreads is a better please to gather reviews. Amazon is filled with bible thumpers and gri turns them away instantly.

>English isn't my first language
Are you sure you should be tackling a big book like the stand? If you are ESL it might be hard for you.
Btw read = past tense and present tense.

>not sure what any of this means...

>it's fairly low key fantasy
>village hiring a party of warrior to help them kill a Demon cliche
>draws a little too heavily from Wheel of Time
>half of the first book got a bit bogged down
>Wheel of Time
You are not shilling this properly at all anon. I don't even want to read the blurb, much less the book.
How is the GRI APPROVAL?

>Pardon the ignorance, but what is GRI
It's SFFG's crowning achievement award, for books of great quality.

Some books might get a honourable mention, but few receive the full seal of approval.

>not knowing about the holy trinity of a book's worth

It depends on how much of the 3 are present. The ratio between G-R-I must be equal and present in a work. Some have GR, GI, IR, but few have GRI in one swoop.

You don't sound like you belong here friend. SFFG was built on GRI APPROVAL.

And incest.

>Brown also noted, "Several of the main characters in the next one will be gay. Darrow's heteronormative outlook has been changing after leaving the mines. He began embracing sexual fluidity and gay characters like Tactus."[3] He discussed the popularity of his novels among the LGBT community, adding "It's amazing that they have found a home in these books
And dropped. I liked that Tactus was fucked up because of all the GRI with his older brother, but I'm not reading a book with buzz words like heteronormative and sexual fluidity. I really hope you're trolling, and Brown hasn't thrown away a great series and 70% of his readers for a vocal 5% minority.

>I love erotica with a female lead that gets into non-consensual sexual scenarios too.

>I am also a huge fan of those.

Any recommendations?

Where is the GRI APPROVED charts?
We have a seal of approval, where is the chart? Anyone ever stamped a book with the GRI seal?

>>9618557
I was shilled the book with it fulfilling those requirements. It did not deliver. Also the other shit I said stands.

Get back to your containment board. I think we should adopt /a/ attitudes and report any mention of anime in this general, like how /a/ reported naruto threads.

I made that chart.
There is supposed to be a comma after gay. They are all separate, but sometimes they all happen at once Red Rising Trilogy comes to mind.

>not knowing one of the corner stones that kept the sffg community together all these years

Hello newfriend. Welcome to our general. Please enjoy yourself. All forms of genre fiction is allowed here. Please keep your reddite(if you are from there) sensibilities and morals to yourself.
Memeing is strictly encouraged once it's on topic and sffg related.

Hence why isn't in GRI??
You aren't supposed to care about the characters, you are supposed to care about the rape.
I see sffg isn't for you.
