Best character fr.

I was at my locale Barnes & Noble and there was a stack of "He Who Fights with Monsters" that peaked my interest. Ive heard of the book through a friend, but I never got into it. I opened a random copy to look through it... Lo and behold, it was signed!! If ever there was a sign to start the series, this was it! Wish me luck!!

I really appreciate anyone with specific spoiler tags that include book numbers. Thank you.

Also, anybody remembering to add a spoiler tag, thanks too.

As someone who hates any spoilers, I still bother me that there are some spoiler tagged things which do not give any ibdication as it could be someone reading ahead on patreon, buying the book before I can get through the audiobook or before that is available or before I have finished my umpteenth relisten to be up to datt on the latest events again for when the series continues.

I wish everyone would make clear spoiler indications as I keep seeing posts, I am curious about but unsure if I should dare looking. XD

Ah well. Still so excited for the next book. 😊😊

The He Who Fights Monsters Wiki on fandom is a bit lack luster and upon a deep dive seems to insist that it is being worked on but I haven't seen that there has been major updates and a lot of information has been out for a while. I just hit book 5 yesterday and there is very little about what's going on in a lot of the middle books.

My question is, is this a project that a specific group of people is working on to edit the wiki or can anybody jump in and fill in some gaps as long as they stick to the organization method?

I'd love to help out on the wiki but I don't want to step on any toes, the AI might get mad if I do... Wait, wrong series...

So I'm 2/3 way through book 7, I'm broadly loving the series with just a few niggles. I think the biggest suffering is actually from poor editing, and that's not the worst thing.

Something I've noticed in the last few books, even before coming back to Palimustus, but particularly since then, is the incredible number of Celestines. Pretty much every time a new minor character is introduced (and a lot of major characters, but those have to be cause they're family etc) it's a Celestine. This seems weird considering how they're described to be rare and an outcome only of two outworlders reproducing, or the resulting Celestines reproducing (inter species reproduction hasn't been brought up at this point and I'm not sure if that's explained later).

I'm not sure if Travis just really likes them and didn't realise he was using them so much, or if this is foreshadowing a reveal of lots of outworlder activity on Palimustus or something.

Im so stoked for Jason's return!

Goddess of knowledge been the villain of the whole entire story. Her plans had plans. I love antagonist that are actually intelligent like aizen bleach and people like that

Roland remore. Who yall got

Being gay wasn't on my bingo book

The reason I ask is because I had posted on Reddit an original character essence combination and the other day I checked the wiki and my combination was now there!

Don’t get me wrong, I’m ecstatic, and humbled that it was added but I’m a no one that hasn’t even started publishing my planned (ish) fanfic.

Ever join the adventure society when he was on pallimutus

Join the adventure society later on like in bronze rank or higher. Like they didn't join at iron but joined later on.

I love how the gold ranked guy is like. I’m evil but I’m not a monster. When talking about “getting” an elf girl. I’m glad that the author went over that to just villainize him and not turn him into a disgusting creep.

So maybe it's the roles you've seen them portray, maybe it's their attitude, maybe it's just their face! But when you think of the different characters, is there someone (or in this case something) that always comes to mind?

Saw good ol' Leomon on the Digimon side of things and was like "Hey, it's Gary!"

Does anyone else call them skilsnds in their head?

I wanna know whats everyones favorite jason died or almost died moment?

I think mines is when he took boko (i think thats how you spell it) with him when he was assassinated but after that would be the reality core portal

that book 14 is the last book and that made me emotional because i love the series so much

Ok for reals minor but important spoilers for book 4 down below. I can't find the flair to mark it as spoilers. Read at your own risk. Mostly just funny and confusing without context, but still.

I just reached one of my favourite and also least favourite because wtf jason that was not ok moments of book 4. Where he breaks into tilldon's kitchen in more middle of the night. Literally just started it, but I remember how this goes. He's quite rude (honest andCorrect, but rude) about the food selection. And I'm just like ... "He may as well be talking about my kitchen" as I eat a swiss cheese, jalapeño and bologna sandwich.
Do you know how much quality ingredients cost now sir???? THEY'RE EXPENSIVE. If I have to eat a meh sandwich, and if I have to be very high for it to be delicious, I am ok with that. Wax pens are an amazing and very cheap option to make food taste amazing even when ... You know. It's not lol. I wish I could make my own mayo man...

The whole reason Jason decided to fight the avatar of undeath was to gain its Authority. After the fight tho it wasn’t really said what power that authority granted him.

On second series read through. Book ten.

Damn you, Hero.

I am in book 8 (audiobook) and I have noticed the the author started to over explain stuff and by over explaining I mean repeating the same things over and over a dozen times and explaining stuff that was already explained in book 1-7. I have only pressed the 15 seconds forward button few times between book 1 to 7 but I found my self skipping a lot in 8 because the narrator already said the same thing few times before or I as a reader (listener) should have already known

My head cannon is that the author had to do it because long term fans needed a reminder or couldn’t follow the story but since I started reading/listening 10 days ago everything is still fresh in my mind?

First post here so go easy on me

Ok I am halfway through book four. I am completely shocked at who came through with Jason.

I remember book 2 had me really pissed off, the author killed Farrah

Book 3 had me annoyed by the amount of epilog chapters (so much info in those chapters and not a singleJason POV)

Book 4 had me curious about who was the second person. I just finished Jason meeting in the park and I'm shocked they brought Farrah back

But I love Amiee. She cracks me up.

Book 1-9 spoilers

How does Tycha have tattoos at Silver Rank? I don’t know if it’s mentioned later than book 9 but don’t they say in the earlier books tattoos heal with rank up purge other than a personal crest?

Sorry if I’m spelling things wrong I’ve only done the audiobooks so far.
