Borne is a 2017 novel by American writer Jeff VanderMeer. It concerns a post-apocalyptic city …
Just like Annihilation, it's beautiful and weird.
This one focuses more on characters however, rather than just environment. It's weird and even more confusing, but I love it.
I love Borne so much. What a little guy. Mischievous fellow.
The King in Yellow is a collection of various short stories.
The first few start off amazingly, detailing the madness and strangeness of the King in Yellow. However, after that, the stories don't really focus on it as much. There is still strangeness, and skilled writing of course, but I just didn't enjoy them quite as much.
Overall, they're great stories though, and I'd recommend reading at least the first few.

I greatly enjoyed the movie, but loved the book even more. While the movie does a great job of visually portraying everything, it just can't compare to the books and your imagination. The book also seems to put a bit more focus on the characters conflicts with each other, and what happens between them.
It goes into such detail of the weird things happening in Area X, and all the strange happenings. I found it less scary, and more beautiful.
Not only is everything amazingly and skillfully written, but just the goings on are beautiful as well, in my opinion.
From his Books of Blood to The Damnation Game, Weaveworld, and The Great and Secret …
The Hellbound Heart is a wonderfully written horrifying novel.
I read it after I saw the Hellraiser movie however. I love the imagery in the movie, but the book is great too.
It's very well written, and never really gets boring or slow. It is a bit strange in parts, but I like that.
For centuries, mystical creatures of all description were gathered to a hidden refuge called Fablehaven …
I think I can confidently say this is one of the best series I've read. It's incredibly captivating & entertaining. I'd highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys fantasy stories & mythology/fables.

An amazing book, showcasing lot's of historical and logical examples for why anarchism would & has worked, and disputes many common criticisms or anarchism. A good first read for people wanting to learn more about anarchism.
