TLT analysis masterpost
(updated but still under construction)
This Tumblr aims to collect resources for a deeper understanding and enjoyment of the Locked Tomb series. There's an absurd wealth of material online, much of it on Tumblr, Reddit but also Discord, and I want to help centralize it so it can be easily consulted. I want the full content of this blog to be searchable, so this masterpost will grow until it contains an index of the material I will share, reblog and write.
I will use hashtags such as #after HtN to indicate material that is best read after competing a certain novel, to enhance your understanding without spoiling anything, or to prepare for a reread.
Thank you!
