I have no intention of continuing that sluggish pace this week, so harrumph, here we go—all shamelessness discarded, escalating the vote-begging to the extreme! I need both Monthly Votes and Recommendation Votes! I want the Master, and I want more of the Master!

Next, I want to recommend a book to everyone. It’s a game novel titled Rebirth of the Investiture of the Gods.

Older readers should recognize this; I’ve written a novel with a Fengshen background before. That was the story I poured the most heart and soul into, and ironically, it performed the worst, ultimately becoming the only novel I ever abandoned mid-run. So, I remain quite interested in Fengshen-themed works. This particular book approaches the divine legends through a gaming lens, and so far, at least, the writing flows very smoothly. My assessment is that it’s solid fare—good "grain"—so if any friends feel inclined, you should check it out. RQ
