My ★★★★★ review of Katabasis (2025)

this happened to my buddy percabeth

#HAHAHA MY GOOD FRIEND PERCABETH

every time I see an author promoting their female rage morally ambiguous magical unapologetic kinda evil “I support women’s rights but also women’s wrongs” characters from their fantasy books all I can think about is how everyone wants to be Fang Runin sooooo bad

#they be like I love evil women #and then they read TPW and are like 😳

Peter Murdoch: I've never thought of texts like this before. Taking into account when they were written, and the author's social context.

Me, with an MA in literature: *surprised Pikachu face* HOW?????

#that’s such a White Man mentality #OP is so right I was also surprised pikachu face

the way people talk about rf kuang and her books is starting to be racist. obv no one is above criticism, but holy shit sometimes the 'criticism' is just not valid because it is so fucking stupid. i've never seen a single white author whose work is torn apart like this. rebecca, i'm buying you a gun.

#I think some people are just not meant to read rf Kuang and they need to accept that #and it’s not because these books are inaccessibly written let’s be clear #but simply if you put it on the author to spoonfeed you every detail plot point and analysis #you should not be reading her books and putting your silly critiques on the internet #OP is so right like if you don’t like the academia in dark academia or the history in historical fantasy #Just pack it up lmao no one is forcing you to read it and spew your bad takes

[RUJINU FIC] To Rebehold the Stars

Summary: According to most psychiatrists, there are five stages of grief. According to certain Buddhist traditions, there are forty-nine days between death and rebirth. According to Korean mythology, King Yeomra the Merciful rules over the seven hells of Jeoseung.

Five. Forty-nine. Seven.

Rumi measures her life after Jinu's death in numbers. But when numbers can’t explain guilt, or explain to Zoey and Mira why she's still haunted, Rumi realizes she has a choice: accept loss, or defy the natural order of life, death, and rebirth. In the underworld, however, the boundary between devotion and destruction grows thinner with every painstaking step through hell, where the only way out is through.

Five stages, forty-nine days, seven hells. Only one impossible chance to bring him back.

#I love RF Kuang’s main characters because they have a tendency to be so unlikeable and yet so relatable #katabasis #No spoilers #I don’t think I’ve ever giggled reading RF Kuang before but genuinely there is some incredible dark humor in this one #maybe it’s bc I’m academia adjacent Kay Em Ess
