Yevah Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 What is your favorite plot in any book. Examples: ASoIaF: The army of the white walkers vs the people of Westeros. The battle over the Iron Throne. LotR: Destroying the one ring to rule them all/defeating the dark lord. Harry Potter: Harry Potter vs Lord Voldemort.

Nuncle Stark Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 Honestly? Even to this day I have a soft spot for "young peasant discovers great power, and goes on a quest of self discovery." Whether it be a farmboy, blacksmith, serving girl, or any other poverty role. Great to see them fight against the odds, upbringing, and societies expectations.

Larry of the Lawn Posted August 14, 2015 Share Posted August 14, 2015 mean mr. mustard in the library with the g-spot dildo? Shouldn't you be posting something about pastoral virgin goes on quest to hang mofos from lamp posts? eta: Personally, as long as it ends with an apocalypse or an orgy, I'm totes satisfied Giant anthropomorphic glass pitcher of sugary fruit-flavored beverage bursts through a load-bearing wall and encourages bacchanalia among the youths present. It's a mystery. Where did he come from? Who repairs the structural damage? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larry of the Lawn Posted February 18, 2016 Share Posted February 18, 2016 The obvious correct answer is Wodehouse, specifically either Code of the Woosters or Jeeves in the Morning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was either that or Samuel Vime's Surprisingly Dangerous Vegetable Patch in Discworld. I also think the greenhouses in Winterfell are pretty neat, but I get the impression that's a full-blown botanical garden; quite unlike the simplicity that ''plot'' implies. Deftly done, sir. Although I suppose I'd raise you Strabo describing the Hanging Gardens of Babylon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Arryn Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 If I were to analyze my choices, some kind of quest...be it Arthurian, Sherlockian, or winning the prize for Scripture Knowledge* at school...probably lies at the heart of most. *2 points for anyone who gets reference.

Jo498 Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 Among the coolest fantasy gardening must be Jason sowing dragon's teeth (or whatever it is) from which monsters spring when going for the Golden Fleece. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
