  1. I've been on a webnovel spree lately. I finished Mother of Learning a couple of weeks ago and I wasn't expecting much (I'm not all that into progression fantasy) but I was pleasantly surprised. It's actually really good and I was hooked from start to finish. 9/10 loved the worldbuilding.

  6. My reaction to this article:

    Actually, it's the other way around. It is adaptations into live-action that see the most changes from the original material, not adaptations in printed literature. ;)

    However, as far as Copyright laws are concerned, if you have a Licence to adapt, you can change it.

    Changes in live-action adaptations of literature works is nothing new. There are countless examples of that, for example Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan novels; H. G. Wells's War of the Worlds; William Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet; Louisa May Alcott's Little Women; and many more.

    There is no “battle between revision and the originality”. If an author doesn't want the licensee to make drastic, or any, changes, then they should produce it themselves, or include it in their License Agreement.

    We also must accept that adapting a work from literature to live-action is never easy. The budget and time constraints are more than enough to justify changes.

    But adapting a live-action work into literature is easier, and actually more fun, because an author can provide more details which were not possible in the original live-action work.
