>>13885158I believe it has two spin-off series that came out recently but I haven't watched either of them. I'm not saying it applies here because I don't know, but overstaying its welcome is the worst thing a good piece of media can do...
>plus, something like that has to be done really well and fit the narrative, otherwise it can just come across as being lazy.Yes but I think it works so well when it's done right. It also adds more value to the book as it encourages subsequent readings. With multiple interpretations it's like getting multiple books for the price of one.
>it turns out he was a huge fan of william hope hodgson by the mid 1930sOh that's interesting. Fantasy and science-fiction became popular around that time if I'm correct, so it makes sense that a number of these writers would be aware of each other's work.
>no puberty and a more adult setting should catalyze some kind of personal change.You're right about that, to me it felt like a transition period. I was learning to live on my own, albeit still with some financial help... I don't know about the social aspects of it though, a lot of people seem to make connections and get into relationships while in college.
>the future is always unclear though, so i try not to let it bother me.It's not like it bothers me that much either. What does is what to do in life. Besides work I mean, because for me that's a means to an end, not the end itself. I would like to travel to all sorts of exotic places but that alone won't make for a fulfilling life, will it?
