A silly list of characters that inspired or influenced Cole's creation. Left Side:

RE4 Merchant: Represents video game merchants who are in odd corners of the world to sell you things.

John Bender: An outcast who puts up a tough exterior to cover a pathetic life of loneliness.

Link: A Fantasy Adventurer who has a million things in his belt. Zelda and the Final Fantasy games were my gateway to the fantasy genre where weird bullshit would be there and everyone is either cool with it, or don't pay it that much mind. Right Side:

The Spirit: I like the two-fisted slug fests and the down to earth characters, both good and bad. Avoid the movie, though.

Captain Bluebear: He recalls the weird places of the weirder world that he's travel to in his many lives.

Raccoon Mario: Favorite Power-Up in Mario 3! The Tanuki Suit is better overall, but it was rarer. Still, it was a nice flight power up without making going through a level completely free like Mario World's Cape.

This is when someone tells me that they read a book about magical crystal fish in a kingdom of candy floss and it was an epic work of xenofiction with profound effects on their own creative output.

#captain bluebear probably had something to that effect in it #fucking bizarre book #like tbqh often boring because it was just a bunch of dream imagery thrown together #compelling overall though

The Big-Footed Bertts were organizing a protest march down Ilstatna Boulevard. Participants, who were invited to suggest what the protest should be about, would be provided with plenty of blank placards and banners to write on. - Walter Moers, The 13 1/2 Lives of Captain Bluebear

Oh my god. Are you serious?? You're a Walter Moers fan? For real?? 😭😍

i think "fan" undersells the fundamental influence the zamonia series had and has on my my life. my dad used to read captain bluebear to us when we were little and had to stop in the middle of the book when he switched jobs. i, and this is not a joke, taught myself how to read to finish it, making it the first book i ever read. it has shaped my humor and my storytelling so much that you could probably reverse engineer my entire character from it. it is, and i cannot stress this enough, THE book of all time.

i would say to this day roughly every 100th sentence i say is in one way or another a reference to captain bluebear from the overt (knowledge is night) to the more subtle (you dance i go with the hat) to the nearly unrecognizable (let's compare clocks) to referencing books within the book (it was quiet, too quiet as prince kaltbluth would say) or myths within the book (as we all know, witches always stand between briches) to just the outright absurd (i am a pearl of sweat...) but the thing that i quote the most, the absolute most is the ending, because it genuinely shaped my life philosophy, and led to many of the insane decisions i have made so far:

it smelled like a hint of cinnamon, and fire burning in the distance. to make it short, it smelled like adventure. you have to give fate a chance, he thought.

life philosophy right there. and YOU should read The 13½ Lives of Captain Bluebear by Walter Moers. give fate a chance!!!

#walter moers #i love that book so so so so so so much the whole series please it is my life...#anon send me your favourite chapter so we can rehash the memories...#sorry i probs butchered the quote trandlating it and from memory and everything

I have two questions!

1 - Have you read all ASOIAF books? If yes, which is your favorite?

2 - What are your favorites books and why?

Thanks in advance ☺️❤️

I have! I think the third one was my favorite.

Some of my favorites books are:

Catch-22 by Joseph Heller

The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald

Dead Souls by Nikolai Gogol

To the Lighthouse by Virginia Woolf

Fathers and Sons by Ivan Turgenev

Oblomov by Ivan Goncharov

Pale Fire by Vladimir Nabokov

The Manuscript Found in Saragossa by Jan Potocki

The Epic of Gilgamesh

Invisible Man by Ralph Ellison

True Grit by Charles Portis

The Castle by Franz Kafka

The Narrative of the Life of Fredrick Douglass by Fredrick Douglass

Darkness at Noon by Arthur Koestler

Don Quixote by Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra

Sundiata by D. T. Niane

Paradise Lost by John Milton

Orlando Furioso by Ludovico Ariosto

Moby Dick by Herman Melville

At this point I'm just copying stuff down from a book review site I used to have. I used to read a whooooooooole lot, but I haven't much recently. :( Maybe I'll get back to it some day. My favorite author is Virginia Woolf. There's nothing more enjoyable than reading something by her—anything. When it comes to a put-together book, though, I think To the Lighthouse is her best. The others I've read are a joy to read, but the end, they don't necessarily come together as well as a book, if that makes sense. Now I haven't read them all. I've read To the Lighthouse, Mrs. Dalloway, Jacob's Room, and Orlando. If I were to recommend a second one, it would be Orlando, which is a real adventure to read. But her writing is unlike any other. I adore her work.

Lately I've been rereading some of my favorites aloud to my daughter after school. We read The 13 1/2 Lives of Captain Bluebear by Walter Moers, and we've now gone through four books by Tove Jansson: The Moomins and the Great Flood, Comet in Moominland, Finn Family Moomintroll, and Moominpappa's Memoirs. Next up is Moominsummer Madness before things get dark. lol But she's been enjoying them. I love Tove Jansson. She refused to write anything other than what she felt. (One of the reasons Finn Family Moomintroll was so odd. She felt a million eyes on her for perhaps the first time, and she was nervous. She settled back in after that.) There's also random things in there. In Moominpappa's Memoirs there's a drawing she did that's a send-up of Picasso's Guernica when Edward the Booble saves them at the end. I should put a picture of it, because I'm not sure anyone noticed... At least I can't find anything on the internet (probably searching wrong).

Anyway, that's some stuff.

1. Switches gears between "hilarious" and "profound" and "jaw on the floor because of how emotionally loaded this silly story has just become" with little effort

2. Will name characters after anything

3. Will refer to things from our world, sometimes very subtly, sometimes as unsubtly as getting slapped in the face is subtle

4. "what if this classic storytelling fantasy thing but different"

5. What if WORLDBUILDING, but thought through to it's logical conclusion.

6. Fiction books that contain a surprising level of practical life advice

7. CITIES. Big capital cities that should not WORK. But they DO.

8. Bonus points if I close the book and think "what the fuck have I just read"

So yeah anyways this is me seamlessly going from reading Discworld again to reading Zamonia again, thinking about who would win in a fight between Ankh-Morpork and Atlantis.

((Honestly my money is on Ankh-Morpork. They're meaner. And also Atlantis literally fucked off into space. Which counts for disqualification.))

Anyways, if you're interested in this sort of shenanigans, please read a Zamonia novel.

And by shenanigans I mean that there's a writer mentioned in Labyrinth of Dreaming Books by the name of Eiderich Fishnertz

And I'm here like thinking who is that? (Because of anagram shenanigans)

And then it's Friedrich Nietzsche.

That sort of shenanigans.

My favorite is The city of dreaming books but the 13½ Lives of Captain Bluebear is also great, or Rumo, or ANY ONE OF THEM I promise they're so neat!

hey hey may you please infodump about your favorite book(s) please ? I want to hear a detailed poetic explaintion about eeevery single thing you like because you're cool and i like reading what you write

I am BEYOND amazed by this ask, I - I can't comprehend. Is this real?

My favourite books - that's a though ask because I have many books I thoroughly enjoy, many tied to my special interests.

Oh gosh, I am sorry in advance, this will be long...

I have not talked about it much on here, but besides Jupiter Jim I am a huge fan of Star Wars & I'm owning over 160 books + the begin of a comic collection. Autistic much, mhmmmmm?

My favourite Star Wars book series is the Republic Commando Series by Karen Traviss. It's a masterpiece.

The way she gives the clone soldiers individual lives & personalities is amazing & it truly mirrors the conflicts that arise with the use of clones for an army. I am also fascinated by Mandalorian Culture, which the clones are raised in by their DNA giver Jango Fett & a few mandalorian warriors he chose for that task.

Karen Traviss created Mando'a, the language of this culture (which I have NOT learned, no, never /s).

I also want to add that the clones are NOT stormtroopers!

I'd also recommend reading the High Republic Series, which is BEYOND amazing & has become my favourite Star Wars Era next to the Prequel Era.

Even if you are not a fan of Star Wars, the High Republic is worth a read as a standalone series. You don't need to know anything about Star Wars to understand it.

Star Wars has a very big library of books & comics - every era has great stories. Here are some of my favourites beyond the ones I already mentioned:

Darth Plagueis (Prequel era to beginning of the Empire)

Alphabet Squadron Trilogy (New Empire era)

Death Star (Original Trilogy)

Brotherhood & also Master & Apprentice (Prequel Trilogy)

The Padmé Trilogy (Prequel Trilogy)

The Lando Calrissian Trilogy (takes place years before the Original Trilogy)

Everything by Timothy Zahn (he's famous for creating Thrawn)

You see how I am unable to choose???

Apart from my quite big Star Wars literature obsession I love reading other science fiction works & also thriller/ horror stories.

Ethan Cross with his absolutely amazing serial killer Francis Ackermann Junior is my favourite thriller author, but I do enjoy Stephen King as well

Of course, Jules Verne & his works are worth mentioning too, his work is impressive considering what he had come up with back in his time!

A Walk Between Stars by Tyler. R. Parsons is a great novel, truly recommend it - a human is stuck in outer space & gets rescued by strange aliens

As a huge Five Nights at Freddy's fan, I (of course) own the novels as well & THEY ARE SO WORTH IT

Occasionally I like fantasy as well.

The Dune Universe by Frank Herbert is what I've started reading & I do like the idea, but I don't enjoy the main character - so I've stopped after the first book. I do want to try to read the whole series someday!

Walter Moers is my favourite fantasy author, his work is absolutely stunning & I treasure every single one. My favourite work would be the 13 1/2 Lives of Captain Bluebear, which was the first novel I've read by him

Lord of the Rings & the Hobbit by J. R. R. Tolkien. No words needed!

The Never Ending Story by Michael Ende (trust me, it's exceptional)

Momo by Michael Ende (teaches you a lot about compassion)

I like reading the nerdy books about astrophysics & quantum physics, but I haven't included them since - it would've been boring to read for you. My newest interest is neuroscience & I want to obtain the scientific books about that field as well!

There you have it, a general overview about my favourite books! (Finally over)

I was seriously touched by this ask.

Even if you just asked to comfort me, it still means so much to me.

People actually care for me.

Thank you.
