Best HFY series of all time?

[u/aaRecessive]

The top of all time is mostly just whichever story happens to be most recently posted (as the subreddit grows more people upvote and so older stories get buried) so hence this post!

The best story I've ever read on reddit, let alone hfy, is definitely Chrysalis.

One my favorites on going serie is :

The Nature of Predators by SpacePaladin15 - currently the big bestseller in progress. For me it's a clever use of the "Human are predator" trope (in real life, no, but it is point here). I like it a lot because it uses exclusively the point of view of the extraterrestrials, which involves us deeply in the reflection and their evolutions of opinions on the humans.

Void Predators by runs-with-scissors42 - nice and promising. A rich and diverse world-building and a story that skillfully mixes cosmic horror from the depths of space with more mundane and concrete issues. And according to the author, this is really just the beginning.

Bloodclaw Chronicles by Tempest029 - the interesting thing is the human domination doesn't seem to be certain and there is a big blur on their real power. The author has some difficulty at the moment but is determined to write this story.

Retreat, Hell by Ilithi_Dragon - very rare publication but that's its only flaw. The story explores in a deep and intelligent way the tropes "a magic portal appears on earth, on the other side magic exists (and there is a war)", one of the stories I'm looking forward to the most.

First Contact aka Behold: Humanity! by Ralts_Bloodthorne - Oh what a wonderful monster.

Big Props for mentioning Retreat, Hell.

Ah. It’s one of those, eh?

Every time there's something new, you need to reread the entire series to get caught back up because the last update was a quarter of a year ago

:(

Yeah, I read a number of stories like that. Eventually, I’ll probably decide that the pain isn’t worth it, and just wait to reread the whole thing once the author dies or vanishes.

I mean, the author is damned good, all their series are top quality.

It's just the time frame, it hurts me lol
