Oh, sorry, I didn't realize Geralt dies when I was reading it. Besides the arguments against it that you mentioned, and besides the game (where he seems to be resurrected), there's also the short story "The Witcher's Wedding," I think. In that story, almost everyone from the book gets married: Geralt and Yennefer, but Regis, Cahir, Milva, and Angulem are not there because they are all dead... What a strange witcher! It's even more interesting this way.

I read about Fanin, it's not bad, and if someone liked it, I would advise them to read "Pelagia," which is a very interesting detective story, but better written than Fanin.

Already :p I've read the entire series about Fanin, and I didn't forget about Pelagia ;) Although "The White Bulldog" seemed a bit boring... but the rest are very good!!
I recently read 2 books by Viktor Suvorov (Control and Choice). It's quite ambiguous... However, the idea of "small chapters" and the writing style itself are very appealing ;)

I think I read something by Akunin about Pelageya, it seemed to be called "Pelageya and the Black Monk," is there such a book? I read it a long time ago...

There is... About Pelageya, there's White Bulldog, Black Monk, Red Rooster :)

Yes, yes! Exactly, I remember! I think I only read about the monk... and I seem to recall a passage about a white bulldog.

Oh, Tanya, this is the best thing I've read from our science fiction...
try starting with Stalker, or read Far Rainbow, and Difficult to Be a God is one of my two favorite books... I'll post some more snippets here later, maybe I'll intrigue someone else:):):)

I also love this book... I just reread my favorite works by the Strugatsky brothers a week ago :) I also created a thread about "Monday" back then... I can help with some snippets :) I'm just finishing it... what a coincidence :)

Yeah, I could download and check out what kind of stories they are) "Human Minimum" and "Order to Kill." The second one is just awful:)
Sheckley is awesome, of course.
So, I understand there are problems with Harrison on our forum?:( He's my favorite writer... what about his famous series about the magnificent, brilliant Jim DiGriz... sigh... I recently reread all 10 or 11 books) They're a real page-turner. They're full of humor) And how I laughed when I read "Bill, the Galactic Hero"))) That's just crazy))) He actually wrote the fourth book about Bill together with Sheckley.
"...Bill took off and threw his sweat-soaked uniform on the floor, but it just stood there upright" xDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD hehehehe)))) killed me)))))))))
Read Harrison, people))) Lok won't recommend anything bad))

Yes, yes!! Garrison is awesome, I read about Bill too, it’s just amazing!! But the best thing is definitely “Steel Rat,” it’s his best work. I don’t know exactly how many books there are, but I’ve definitely read three. The first one is about the Steel Rat, and the other two are about how he ends up on a planet where all of nature is trying to kill humans. In short, Garrison is the best!

Lock, I was just thinking maybe I read those stories)) Okay, I'll check them out and read them, I'll even take my dad's PDA)))
What's wrong with Harrison? I've only read "The Saga" and "The Stainless Steel Rat," and a few short stories. What's up with Bill? Can you give me a link?

Kenny, there are two books about a dangerous planet – it’s another series by Harry, called “Untamed Planet.” It’s not about Jimmy, but it’s also very interesting, although there are only 3 books.
Exz, I also read using a КПК) I just can’t look at a monitor anymore... I recently got a КПК again, and immediately resumed reading books... in paper format, they are less convenient, harder to find, and you even have to pay for them, oO.
Read Bill, you won’t regret it; here are three. The first and third are books, about 150-200 pages each, and the second is a short story. If you read them and like them (and you will:D), I’ll send you more.
Write if anyone needs them; I have all of Harrison and probably all of Sheckley.

I have all eight books of the "Steel Rat" series. Ask me anything, or I'll see if I can find something else.

I personally enjoy reading classics the most. Of course, not everything appeals to me. I have certain preferences. Right now, I'm reading Jack London's "Martin Eden," and I'm very impressed. I also recently learned that he was a socialist... he was even a member of the Socialist Party of America.

Harrison's "unyielding planet" is something special!
The other two books aren't as good... but the first one is simply superb!

Pandor, being a member of the American Communist Party, didn't have an easy life... it was VERY difficult...
And in general, classics come in different forms. Who would have thought that Poe's stories would become classics? Agatha Christie... And Clarke and Sheckley are probably already considered classics;)

Kenny, there are two books about a dangerous planet – it’s another series by Harry, called “Untamed Planet.” It’s not about Jimmy, but it’s also very interesting, although there are only 3 books.

Oh, I remember, there are 3 books. The third was co-authored with someone, but most likely, that person wrote the majority of it. Since it’s a continuation of Harrison’s books, it should have been attributed to him.
And isn’t this a continuation of Steel Rat? That’s strange… I need to reread everything.

And nobody reads Robert Asprin anymore?) “Myth”?
