Doing my semi annual Tamora Pierce (Song of the Lioness) Re-read and crying because none of my friends have read these or understand how pivotal they were to my entire being.

In honor of 2023 being the 40th anniversary of Tamora Pierce’s Song of the Lioness quartet, these are the beloved and much-read paperbacks I bought with my allowance money in 1992, when I was 13.

I love that an intrinisic part of Page training in Tortall is waiting tables. Like, if you want to be a knight and truly understand the ways of Chivalry you must first experience... The Service Industry.

#tortall #protector of the small #song of the lioness #although honestly i'm pretty sure alanna only survived this #because she spent most of it with sir miles #and thus avoided several murder charges

First look at the 40th anniversary Alanna collection!

duke roger of conte is such a funny character, honestly. imagine being such an objectionable cunt that an entire pantheon of gods goes "absolutely not" and sets alanna loose on him. baby girl just wanted to be a knight and go on adventures and the gods keep giving her new special toys with which she is specifically destined to kick this one guy's ass. honestly the main reason thom was able to resurrect roger was that the black god went "um. no thanks" when he died the first time. no wonder he came back an atheist lmao

#tortall #song of the lioness #i am doing a reread and this aspect of the series is newly hilarious to me #like. is alanna the most specialest girly who gets all the toys? yes shut up she deserves it! #but also: the gods keep giving her all the toys because Fuck This One Dude In Particular is such a funny way to interpret the text

This is about the Bazhir, Daine and Numair, and the entirety of the Trickster’s Duology

Did I slap a horrible gigantic watermark on this? Sorry, but yes.

Alanna The Lioness belongs to Tamora Pierce.

TOP 10 BOOKS ON FANFICTION.NET BASED ON NUMBER OF FANFICTION (1999-2022)

To make this bar chart race, all series titles in the Books Section on November 29 (or the closest date to it) of every year were copy-pasted from Wayback Machine to Google Sheets, rearranged according to number of fanworks, and then inputted to Flourish to turn into a bar chart race.

Hitchhiker's Guide to [...] is short for Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy and Romance of the 3 [...] is short for Romance of the 3 Kingdoms.

In 2000-2003, FFN used Miscellaneous Novels as a catch-all tag for all books that didn’t have their own category yet. It was then renamed to Misc. Books in 2004-2007 before it was removed by 2008.

In 1999, fanfiction weren’t divided into sections like Anime/Manga, TV, Books, etc. yet. It was just a small list of mixed fandoms.

Anne Rice Vampire Chronicles was actually in third place in the year 2000 with 126 fanfiction. However, it was the only year FFN had fanfiction for her works, that’s why it doesn’t turn up in the bar chart race.

In 2001, a new category called Harry Potter Author Fics was in 4th place with 888 fanfiction, but this category was removed by the following year.

FFN also hosted Vampire Hunter fanfiction in 2001-2002, but was later on removed because its author L. K. Hamilton didn't want fanfiction of her works.

The Tamora Pierce category was in the Books Section from 2001-2009 as a catch-all category for Pierce’s works before it was removed by 2009.

Similarly, the L.J. Smith category was in the Books Section from 2000-2007 as a catch-all category for Smith’s works before it was removed sometime in 2009.

I've decided to keep the author categories in the bar chart race since most if not all of their series did not get their own category until their author's category was removed.

Originally, the fanfiction list was sorted alphabetically too, but was changed to number of fics at around early 2013.

By November 2013, FFN started abbreviating numbers above 1,000 to K, so exact numbers aren't available for series with more than 1,000 fanfiction.

This bar chart was made with the assumption that the numbers listed in the Books section are correct. I can't seem to get the same numbers for some of these series when I go to the specific series' page and toggle ratings, other filters, and language to All though... I'm not sure where the discrepancy is coming from. (And it’s not the crossover fic numbers that need to be added to serie’s total fics from what I’ve observed.)

For example, HP currently has 844k fanfiction, but if you go to HP’s page and toggle ratings, other filters, and language to All, you’ll only get 800k fics. HP also has 51.3K crossover fanfiction, but adding those two still doesn’t equate to 844k...

Please refer to this post for more bar chart races.

Thanks for understanding and hopefully I didn’t mess up anywhere! 🙏
