>>9217082
he shouldve spent more time working out his BRAIN in the LIBRARY and not his ARMS in the gay GYM then maybe his writing would be decent

It's a shop. Look at the clock

>>9217089
too late nerd you did

that's nice, huge arms, but Embassyville is still a book purchase i wish i could take back. it's .. not very good.

What's his deal anyway?

Insecurity, He knows he lacks originality and after 4 failed book releases he's now doubting his staying power as a successful author.

He is the same as Paolini

Tried to copy Peake's style but only divolved into tropes and purple prose.

Devolve I meant

He also straight up ripped off Jack Vance with The City and the City, and This Census-Taker.

>>9217082
this is a dumb meme, and an old one at that, but his books are alright. his stories are inventive.

>>9217636
That's wrong though - Paolini just ripped off the plot of Star Wars with the aesthetic of LotR.

Perhaps, but his intellect is tiny. His critique of nationalism is edgy 14 yo tier

How can we blame Israel for this.

I own Perdido Street Station, is it good?

WTF he's not chinese??

He's Mievillian

You mean Embassytown? Seriously? I loved everything about it: Far-future setting, the complexities of communication, the nature of language and spoken truth. It was beautiful. Sorry to hear you didn't get much out of it.

What would you do /lit/

>>9218313

Yes. The Scar is even better. It's all downhill after that though.

>>9219127
say, "damn! nice arms bro!"

Can't spell Mieville without EVIL.

>>9219095
embassything, yes. i find the almost complete lack of visual references detracts from the work, almost as if it had been dictated by someone blind from birth.

Imagine if he did more than just bicep curls - he'd be an unstoppable literary force.
