I've heard of spacebattles forum, haven't delved into it because of the forum structure makes reading awkward, i prefer RR's presentation, not the best but atleast it's a damn website and not a forum lol.

as for worm... i read it a bit but dropped it because i arrived too late (iirc author had already moved to the third series when i heard of it) and the backlog was too daunting. That said, apparently there ia graphic novel coming up so might look into it.

spacebattles has a reading mode: https://forums.spacebattles.com/library/stories/

It's never too late for Worm. There is no backlog, it's a self-contained story. I'd recommend reading it before the comics (not graphic novel).

Every website has it's one winning story, RR has 'Mother of Learning', I guess spacebattles forums has Worm.

Any other recommendations?
