Sure it’s free online, but if you want to buy this book to support the authors and also to have a beautiful hardcover edition of the epilogues to display on your shelf, get it!It’s also super cool that it’s double sided for the meat and candy sides!
The conversion from webpage to paper is an inherent downgrade from a piece of media that was already quite hostile to its readers. Certain text can be much harder to read without the assistence of highlighting and dark themes that reading in a browser page provides. I wish the authors the best, but I cannot in any good faith recommend this work to anyone.
“His revision is a tough, emotionally draining read. But it’s cathartic, in all the worst ways possible. He tends to get carried away with his projects.”This story includes a list of warnings in the prologue, and the reader should not make the mistake of dismissing them as ironic. This is an emotionally charged, comedic, sweet, jarring, and intense story with some potentially triggering themes. Some people have chosen to ignore the warnings and found this text very upsetting, so I would advise that the reader know themselves and not engage with something they know will upset them. However, just because its controversial doesn’t mean its bad. I found it incredibly engaging and was unable to stop reading until I finished both volumes. Just know yourself, or you’ll end up like the person who wrote the one-star-review down there.My advice? Read it for free on homestuck.com and then if you like it as much as I did be sure to support the creators by giving this a buy 🙂 |
