Prompt: a fire breathing tortoise in an old growth forest

I think it’s neat how the fire is in every crack of its skin and shell

      I’ve been reading Will Wight’s stuff since the first Traveller’s Gate book. He’s my favourite living author.

        I’ve only read Cradle, the other stuff is as good? What should be next?

          I mean, Traveller’s Gate is still good, if a bit unpolished in hindsight. It’s just plain fun, especially if you’re familiar with fantasy and anime tropes, though I recommend keeping a glossary nearby to make the comprehension of the the various terms easier.

          The Last Horizon, the series he’s working on now, is also a lot of fun. It mixes sci-fi and fantasy, and all the main characters are already able to bench-press continents (literally or proverbially), so their development comes via different avenues than Cradle, where Lindon’s personal growth was tied directly to his power level. I wasn’t as enamoured with the second Last Horizon book as I was the first, but it was still good, and unless Will Wight starts writing Nazi propaganda or something I’ll continue to read everything he publishes.
