No Hero, Key of the Sunken Moon, lots of writing projects

absolutehymn007, I received a lot of postcards from you today! ♥ They're lovely.

No Hero
I recently bought No Hero v7. (The guy on the cover uses pens as weapons. How badass is that? XD;;;) Finished reading this! It was supposed to be the end of the series, but Yu Wo wasn't able to finish the entire series with that volume, so now there will also be a volume 8. Volume 7 concludes nothing! I've read some complaints about volume 7, about how it made things more confusing than necessary, and how too many characters have been introduced or only briefly mentioned. It feels kind of like a transitional volume, and it brings in a lot from Eclipse Hunter, which readers were told wasn't necessary to read to enjoy No Hero. I liked volume 7 though, and was ecstatic when these characters got more of the spotlight (and when the other characters were mentioned, even though only passingly). Also, since I've read Eclipse Hunter, a lot of what happens in this volume reads as dramatic irony to me. At the same time, I feel that readers who haven't read Eclipse Hunter (the prequel), will have fun learning things along with the protagonist. I don't know about the other way around though, reading No Hero before Eclipse Hunter. No Hero pretty much spoils a lot of the plot from EH. Only later volumes though.

( spoilerish stuff about the volume~ )

Key of the Sunken Moon
I also bought 5 volumes of Key of the Sunken Moon by Shui Quan. Another Taiwanese light novel series~. I hadn't read any of it before purchasing, so I don't know if I'll like it yet. I hope so, since I already bought 5 volumes of it, haha. Branching out on authors now! \o\ Her writing seems to be fairly humorous too. I like having a dash of humor in my reading. <3


Just checked Yu Wo's plurk. The first volume of the Legend of Sun Knight spin-off/sequel will be out on August 28! \o/

Writing-wise, I've been flitting all over place, trying to write several things all at once, from Bittersweet Sweetness to Invincible to a new LSK fic (hopefully a oneshot). @__@ Currently, I'm going through Memories of the Future again and editing what's currently up of it (some of the grammar is just... *shakes head*). I don't actually have an editable copy of the entire fic! Must change that.
